Take the guesswork out of healthy eating. Most food labels are designed for marketing, not for you. Scanly cuts through the noise and shows what's actually in your food, including additives, processing, allergens, sugar, salt, saturated fat, and more. Then it explains what it means for your body. Point your camera at any product, fresh produce, barcode, or ingredient list. In seconds, you'll see a personalized health score, the ingredients that matter, and clear insights to help you make better choices. WHAT SCANLY SHOWS YOU • Processing level: is it whole, processed, or ultra-processed? We flag the difference. • Additives & E-numbers: what each one does, and whether it matters for you. • Ingredient insights: understand what’s really inside your food. • Carcinogenic risk: ingredients flagged by the WHO's IARC as possibly or probably cancer-causing in humans. • Microplastic & contamination risk: based on packaging and processing data. • Real sugar, salt, and saturated fat: including the kinds that don't show up clearly on labels. • Allergens: including hidden ones in "may contain" warnings. PERSONALIZED TO YOU Generic ratings ignore the fact that everyone's body is different. The same product can be a great choice for one person and a terrible one for another. Scanly scores products based on: • Your allergies • Your diet preferences • Your health goals WHAT YOU GET • AI vision: no barcode? Just take a photo. Scanly recognizes products from packaging, ingredient lists, and fresh food. • Barcode scanning: scan packaged foods in seconds. • Personalized health scores: based on what matters to you. • Scan history: track what you scan and spot patterns over time. • Independent: no sponsored brands, no paid placements. SCANLY PRO With Scanly PRO, you get unlimited access to Scanly, including unlimited scanning, your complete scan history, healthier alternatives, hundreds of safe recipes rated with a Scanly Score, and advanced personalization.

Verdict
