Is it vegan?
Point and know.
A plate, a label, a barcode, a whole menu. One photo, one straight answer, with the ingredients that decided it.
Free. One email the day it lands — nothing else, ever.
Yes. This is vegan.

And when it isn’t sure, it says so.
Most scanners give you a confident answer every time, which is how you end up trusting one that was wrong. This one names what it could not read and tells you what to check. That is the whole point.

Three ways to ask. One honest answer.
veganA plate
Photograph what is in front of you. A verdict, the ingredients it spotted, and a calorie range — logged in a tap.
checkA label
It knows the ones that hide: casein, carmine, shellac, isinglass, whey. Ask about any of them in plain English.
not veganA whole menu
Every dish sorted: already vegan, one small ask away, or not. Before the waiter comes back.
Seven nutrients. The ones that actually go missing.
B12, iron, zinc, calcium, iodine, omega-3, vitamin D. Not everything — just the ones a plant-based diet tends to run short on. Log a meal in one tap and watch them fill.
Vitamin B12
4 µg a day
B12 keeps your nerves and blood cells happy — and plants simply don't make it. Fortified foods are your friends.
Iron
18 mg a day
Plant iron absorbs better with vitamin C. Squeeze lemon on those greens.
Iodine
150 µg a day
Sea vegetables and iodised salt keep your thyroid ticking.
Omega-3
1.6 g a day
Flax, chia and walnuts — your daily spoonful is paying off.

The things people ask first.
Is it accurate?
It names the ingredients that decided it, and when it isn’t sure it says so. The AI is good and it is not infallible — always check the label if it matters to you, especially for an allergy.
Do you keep my photos?
Photos are never stored. Your data lives in the EU. No ads, ever.
Do I have to pay?
No. Barcode scanning is unlimited and free, and so are every recipe and every vegan place. Vegan Lens+ is there if you want the pantry, the full history and gap-ranked recipes.
Where does the restaurant data come from?
OpenStreetMap, under the Open Database Licence, credited on every page that uses it. Nobody pays to appear, and nobody can.
Stop squinting at labels.
