Scan any food, ingredient list, or restaurant menu - and find out if it's good or bad for you, backed by real studies. Not arbitrary scores. Science.
biteful is a food scanner and ingredient checker that reads the actual research — peer-reviewed PubMed studies, not headlines or influencer takes — and gives you a clear answer in seconds. Every verdict cites its sources. Tap any claim, read the original paper.
THREE WAYS TO SCAN
• Scan one food — A blueberry, a pantry item, an ingredient label. Get a verdict on its nutrition, backed by real scientific studies.
• Compare two foods — Greek yogurt vs. protein bar. Pick the better option side by side, with the evidence on screen.
• Rank a restaurant menu — Point your camera at any menu. biteful tells you what to order, with the best picks highlighted on the photo itself.
PERSONAL FROM THE START
Tell biteful about your dietary preferences, allergies, and goals once — every scan re-ranks around your life. Pregnancy. Keto. GERD. Vegetarian. Or just "I'm cutting back on seed oils."
Works on real food, not just barcodes. Photograph a plate, a smoothie, loose produce at the store. biteful handles what barcode scanners can't.
SEE HOW FOOD AFFECTS YOUR BODY
Connect Apple Health and biteful shows how meals move your heart rate and HRV. See which foods spike you, and which ones don't. Stop guessing — make informed decisions about what you eat.
Seed oils, food dyes, ultra-processed additives — biteful flags what matters and shows you what the research says. No fear-mongering. Just evidence.
