AdditiveGuard reveals what hides inside product labels. Scan a barcode, or read ingredients through the built-in OCR scanner, and the app evaluates additives, allergens, and intolerance triggers with clear explanations. No accounts, no tracking, no noise. Just practical insight you can use on the spot. What AdditiveGuard does • Barcode scanning for quick product lookups • Ingredient scanning with OCR for items without barcodes • Risk evaluation engine highlighting additives, allergens, and intolerance matches • Condition-aware insights for common sensitivities • Multi-language interface for travelers and international shoppers • Offline-first design to keep results responsive • No personal data storage and no profiling Every assessment is shown with a simple color system and short, clear information. You control the experience without ads or clutter. Built for practical use AdditiveGuard helps you quickly understand: • What additives are present • Whether they are considered safe, cautionary, or best avoided • When an ingredient conflicts with your dietary preferences or intolerances • When a product aligns with vegan or halal expectations The goal is clarity, not medical guidance. Multi-language support The app interface and additive database are available in several languages, making it easy to use in stores around the world. Privacy by design AdditiveGuard works without accounts, and most analysis runs directly on your device. When external data is required, only the product barcode is transmitted. Nothing is linked to you. Disclaimer AdditiveGuard does not offer medical advice or diagnose conditions. It provides ingredient information to support informed consumer decisions.
