## What is LabelCue?

LabelCue reads food labels against your allergy profile and points to the EXACT words on the label that may matter — so you can check for yourself instead of guessing.

HOW IT WORKS
• Scan a barcode, or take a photo of the ingredient list.
• LabelCue checks it against the allergen groups you choose (the 14 EU groups: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, gluten, soy, fish, crustaceans, molluscs, sesame, celery, mustard, lupin, sulphites).
• Clear results: "N things worth checking", "No match with your profile found" or "Not enough data to tell" — always with an icon, words and colour.

SEE IT ON THE LABEL
Evidence Lens highlights the words behind each alert (for example "whey" comes from milk) with a one-line reason. "May contain" is kept separate from "contains".

RUNS ON YOUR PHONE
Text reading and profile matching run on the device. Your allergy profile never leaves your phone. No account needed. Works offline; barcodes scanned offline are looked up when you are back online.

ALLERGY CARD IN 8 LANGUAGES
Show it to restaurant staff when travelling: English, Deutsch, Français, Tiếng Việt, Español, Italiano, Nederlands, Português. Save or share as an image.

INGREDIENTS YOU AVOID
Not an allergy, but you want to know: palm oil, MSG (E621), sugar, sweeteners, pork, alcohol, synthetic colours… or type your own.

HISTORY, CALENDAR AND STATS
Every scan, by day, and the allergens you meet most — all on your phone.

IMPORTANT
LabelCue helps you read labels. It is not a medical device and does not replace advice from your doctor. "No match found" only means nothing was found in the part of the label that was read — it is not a safety confirmation. Text recognition can be wrong and manufacturers change recipes. If your allergy is severe, always check the pack yourself.

Some product data comes from Open Food Facts (ODbL).
