Cade

Some drug interactions slip past even the best doctors and pharmacists — Cade catches them before they catch you. Cade was built after watching a loved one suffer a dangerous interaction that three different healthcare providers missed. No single doctor sees your full picture: every medication, every supplement, every peptide. Cade does. Just scan a barcode or snap a photo of any medication, supplement, peptide, or food. Cade's AI checks it against your personal health profile — your medications, conditions, and allergies — and gives you a clear verdict: safe, caution, or danger. No confusing charts, no guesswork. Every morning, Daily Safety Alerts give you a quick heads-up on anything worth watching. Peptide users get their own Peptide Intel briefings, since peptides are often overlooked by standard interaction tools. Have a question? Ask Cade, your AI research analyst, and get answers backed by citations from PubMed, Mayo Clinic, NIH, and FDA sources — not vague internet advice. Track your progress in the Health Insights tab with weekly stats and scan streaks, then generate a shareable PDF report to bring to your next doctor's appointment. Set medication reminders so nothing gets missed. Build out a full health profile with your medications, supplements, conditions, and allergies, and export everything as a PDF whenever you want. Your data, your control — erase it all with one tap, anytime. Cade is built for adults managing multiple medications who want an extra layer of protection between their medicine cabinet and their health. It's the safety net that talks to all your prescriptions at once. Start with 3 free scans. Unlock unlimited scans and full features with Annual Premium ($39.99/year, 7-day free trial — less than $3.33/month). One plan, everything included. Cade is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your medications. https://getcade.app/terms.html https://getcade.app/privacy.html
