## What is Everlume?

Point your phone at any grocery barcode and Everlume tells you in seconds what is actually in it, which ingredients are worth worrying about, and what to buy instead.

Every product gets an honest 0 to 100 score, where 100 is the cleanest, plus a plain-English breakdown of every flagged ingredient and what it does if you eat it.

WHAT YOU GET
- Plain-English Flags: synthetic dyes, seed oils, added sugar and additives, each explained in one line, and what it does in the body.
- Cleaner Swaps: a better-scoring product from the same aisle, so you are never left with nothing to buy.
- Focus Goals: nine goals including Clear Skin, Heart Health, Deep Sleep, Steady Energy and Little Ones. Turn one on and every label gets re-read against it.
- Smart Shopping Lists: build a list as you scan and every item carries its own score, so you see the weak link in your cart at a glance. Add notes to any item.
- Kitchen Report Card: scan 5 to 15 things from your pantry and get a guided, shelf-by-shelf audit with the swaps that would help most.
- Brand Average: see how a whole brand tends to score, not just the one product in your hand.

SHARE WHAT YOU FIND, NO APP REQUIRED
Send anyone a product or a whole shopping list and they open a full web page: the photo, the score, every flagged ingredient, and the reason each one was flagged. No app, no account. Perfect for sending your partner the better cereal, or showing family what is really in what they buy.

BUILT AROUND HOW YOU ACTUALLY EAT
Set it once and every score, search and aisle you browse is tailored to you.
- Diets: Vegetarian, Vegan, Keto, Carnivore, Paleo and AIP. Anything that does not qualify is filtered out.
- Ingredients You Avoid: switch on seed oils, refined oils or artificial preservatives and Everlume calls them out on every scan, and filters them out of your search results.
- Allergens: add the ones that matter in your house and they are checked on every product, every time.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan the barcode on any packaged food.
2. See the score and exactly what got flagged.
3. Tap a cleaner swap and add it straight to your list.

WHAT MAKES EVERLUME DIFFERENT
- Ingredients Only: every score comes from the ingredient list, not brand reputation, not a health halo, not the claims on the front of the box.
- Nothing Is Sponsored: brands cannot buy a score, a swap slot, or a place in your search results.
- No Ads, No Data Selling: your membership is the only thing that funds Everlume, which is why no brand can pay for a better score.
- The Strictest Standard: we weigh what the world's toughest food regulators restrict, not just what happens to be permitted where you shop.

WHAT EVERLUME FLAGS
Every scan runs against 18 additive classes, including synthetic dyes, seed and refined oils, artificial preservatives, added and hidden sugars, artificial sweeteners, emulsifiers and fillers, flavor enhancers, and trans fats.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK

Where do the scores come from?
The ingredient list, every time. We score what is actually printed on the package against published research and regulatory limits.

Do people I share with need the app?
No. A shared product or list opens as a normal web page on any phone or computer.

Can I use this for a food allergy?
Add your allergens and Everlume checks every product against them. Treat it as a second pair of eyes and always read the physical label too.

What if I change my mind?
Manage or cancel anytime from your Apple ID settings, in two taps.
