ClearaScan · Ingredient checker
A barcode lookup tells you what a product database says. ClearaScan reads the ingredients printed on the product you're holding and checks them against your personal Ingredient Guard.
From food and skincare to shampoo and cosmetics, check the products you use every day, for yourself or the people you care about.
7-day free trial: up to 40 scans, no card needed, no automatic charge. Android coming soon.
See ClearaScan in action
From checking a product's label to seeing your personalised result, here's a quick look at how ClearaScan helps you shop with more confidence.
One scan. Check the whole family
Different people can have different ingredients to avoid.
ClearaScan checks one product label against each family member's Ingredient Guard, giving everyone their own personalised result.
One product. Everyone's own rules.
Why the actual label matters
Manufacturers can change product ingredients without necessarily changing the barcode. Barcode lookups rely on stored product information, which may not always match what's printed on the packaging.
ClearaScan takes a different approach. It reads the actual ingredient label on the product you're holding and checks it against your personal Ingredient Guard.
Because the label in your hand is the one that matters.

One app · Everyday products
Food, skincare, shampoo and cosmetics. ClearaScan helps you check the ingredients in the products you and your family use every day.
Food labels · Skincare and cosmetics · Other names for allergens
Save your favourites · Save time shopping
Save the products you've checked, from your favourite shampoo to everyday groceries, so you can find them again without photographing the label each time.
And because ingredients can change, ClearaScan reminds you when it's time to check the label again.
Your checked products, ready for next time.
Always re-scan if the packaging or ingredients appear to have changed.
How ClearaScan works
No lengthy ingredient research. Just a practical check based on the rules you've chosen.
On holiday? Understand what's on the label.
Understand the ingredients, even when you don't speak the language.
ClearaScan translates supported foreign-language ingredient labels into English and checks them against your personal Ingredient Guard.
Different language. Same personal Ingredient Guard.

Share the checking with people you trust, and keep a record of what happened.
Care Circle
Sometimes someone else is doing the shopping. A grandparent. A partner. A friend. Someone helping to care for a family member.
Share a profile with someone you trust. They can scan products against that person's Ingredient Guard on their own phone, but only you can change the list.
A little more independence for them. A little less to worry about for you.
Reaction Journal
When something doesn't agree with you, it isn't always easy to remember what happened or when.
Reaction Journal gives you a place to record your experiences and look back for patterns over time.
Your experiences, recorded in one place.
Real people · Everyday checks
From checking a new moisturiser to shopping for the family, ClearaScan is designed to make everyday ingredient checks simpler.
"Some labels are really hard to interpret quickly. ClearaScan helps me spot ingredients I have to avoid without standing in the aisle Googling everything."
Emily R., Austin, Texas · Beta tester
"Shopping with kids and allergies is stressful enough already. Being able to scan a label quickly makes things feel much easier and allows me to shop much more calmly."
Rachel L., London, UK · Beta tester
"When you're buying for someone else's allergies, you don't want to get it wrong. It is no longer just about you. ClearaScan gives me another layer of reassurance."
