Based on comparative analysis of EU EFSA Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008, FSSAI Food Safety and Standards Act 2006, US FDA Code of Federal Regulations Title 21, WHO food additive guidelines, and CDSCO Cosmetics Rules 2020.

Global benchmarks

Checked against
the world's strictest food standards.

The EU EFSA and US FDA have banned or restricted dozens of food additives still permitted in India. Every Labelyze scan cross-references your product against these authorities and surfaces the difference. Every flag includes its regulatory source.

EU
EU EFSA
European Food Safety Authority. One of the strictest food safety regulators in the world, with extensive ingredient bans and warning labelling requirements.
US
US FDA
Food and Drug Administration. Regulates food additives and ingredient safety in the United States, with a publicly accessible regulatory database.
India
FSSAI
India's food regulator. Used as the local baseline. Labelyze highlights where a product is permitted in India but restricted abroad.

What Labelyze does

Everything the label
doesn't tell you.

Each product is run through a multi-layer analysis the moment you scan it.

01
Personalised Safety Verdict
A single-line verdict tailored to your health profile and dietary requirements. Conditions such as diabetes, IBS, lactose intolerance, and common allergens are accounted for on every scan once configured.
02
The India Information Gap
Ingredients restricted in the EU or US but freely sold in India are clearly highlighted, with the regulation, year it was enacted, and the underlying health concern. Every flag is traceable to its source.
03
Works Fully Offline
Barcode lookups run against a local database on your device. No internet connection is required to scan or view ingredient analysis.
04
Data Stays On Your Device
Scan history, health profile, dietary preferences, notes, and watchlist are all stored locally. No analytics, no behavioural tracking, no data transmission of any kind.
05
Front-of-Pack Claim Verification
Front-of-pack claims such as "Zero Sugar" or "High Protein" are cross-checked against the declared ingredient list and applicable thresholds. Inaccurate claims are surfaced with evidence.
06
AR Shelf Scanning
Point your camera at a shelf and product safety scores appear over each item in view, allowing you to assess multiple products at once without individual scans.

The information already exists.
We make it accessible
at the point of purchase.

EU EFSA and the US FDA publish ingredient safety rulings openly. Labelyze translates that data into a readable, actionable verdict at the moment you need it.

How scoring works

A transparent score.
Every point explained.

Each scan returns a 0–100 score calculated across five layers. Every point added or deducted is shown alongside its reason.

Each caution ingredient with regulatory restriction−6 pts
Trans fats or vanaspati−18 pts
Partially hydrogenated oils−15 pts

Our mission

Closing the
information gap.

Consumers in Europe and North America have long had access to detailed ingredient safety data at the point of purchase. The same data exists for India. It has simply not been accessible in the moment a purchase decision is made.

Labelyze does not make those decisions for you. It surfaces the regulatory facts, cites the source, and lets you decide. Pro-information, not anti-brand.

Every concern we raise is referenced to a published source. We tell you which body issued it, when it was issued, and the reasoning behind it. No anonymous warnings; no opaque scoring.

Roadmap
