## What is Is It Vegan? Label Scanner?

Is it vegan? Point your camera at the ingredients list and find out in seconds.

No more standing in the aisle googling one ingredient at a time. Is It Vegan? is a vegan food scanner that reads the label for you and explains what is actually in the box.

HOW IT WORKS
Open the scanner, fit the ingredients list inside the frame, and tap. You get a verdict on the product and on every single ingredient:

• 100% Vegan - nothing of animal origin
• Very Likely Vegan - almost always plant-based, occasionally not
• Suspicious - could go either way depending on the manufacturer
• Not Vegan - animal-derived

WHAT IT CATCHES
Animal products hide behind chemical names. Carmine is crushed insects. Casein and whey are milk. Shellac comes from a beetle. L-cysteine can come from feathers. Gelatin, isinglass, lanolin, cochineal, lactose - the app knows them, and explains each one in plain English, so you learn as you shop.

It also flags the genuinely ambiguous ones instead of guessing. Natural flavours and mono- and diglycerides can be vegan or not depending on the producer, and you deserve to be told that rather than given false confidence.

QUICK AND QUIET
• No ads. Anywhere. Ever.
• No account, no sign-up, no email address
• Your photos are never stored - the image is read and discarded
• Works on packaged products worldwide, including multilingual labels

GOOD FOR
Vegans and vegetarians, anyone avoiding dairy, eggs, gelatin or other animal ingredients, people shopping for a vegan friend or family member, and anyone who just wants to know what they are eating.

FREE AND PRO
Free: 5 ingredient scans per day.
Pro: 100 scans per day. Cancel anytime. Price shown in the app.

ONE HONEST NOTE
The app reads labels with AI, and AI can be wrong. It can misread faint print or miss a line that is cut off. Treat it as a fast, well-informed second opinion rather than a guarantee. If a product really matters to you, read the label yourself too.
