SafeBite: Food Allergy Scanner

AI FOOD ALLERGEN SCANNER & INGREDIENT ANALYZER Tired of squinting at tiny ingredient labels? SafeBite is an AI-powered food scanner built to help you spot common allergens at the grocery store, at home, and in restaurants. Using image recognition and AI, SafeBite reads ingredient lists and menus in seconds to help you make a more informed choice about what you eat. ALLERGEN DETECTION FOR THE MAJOR ALLERGENS SafeBite is more than a barcode reader. Our AI ingredient checker can read raw text on packaging, restaurant menus, or recipe cards, and looks for the "Big 9" allergens and more: Gluten-Free Living - flags wheat, barley, rye, and hidden malt for Celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Dairy & Lactose Tracker - flags milk, cream, butter, whey, and casein. Nut Allergy Support - detection for peanuts and tree nuts (almonds, walnuts, cashews). Egg & Soy Detector - flags egg whites, yolks, and soy-based binders often hidden in processed foods. Seafood & Shellfish - flags shrimp, crab, lobster, and common fish proteins. Custom Sensitivities - set your own list for sesame, mustard, sulfites, nightshades, and more. HOW THE AI WORKS Scan without barcodes - snap a photo of any ingredient list and our AI reads the text directly, useful for international products and local bakery items with no barcode. Decode hidden names - food manufacturers use technical names for common allergens. Our AI Ingredient Decoder maps terms like "Albumin" to Egg and "Caseinate" to Dairy. Check restaurant menus - photograph a menu and the AI cross-references dish names against common high-risk ingredients to flag items worth asking about. KEY FEATURES Personalized Allergen Profile - tell the app your restrictions (Vegan, Vegetarian, Paleo, Keto, or specific allergens) and get flagged when a product doesn't match. Allergy Exposure History - track scans over time to spot patterns, and export a report to share with your doctor or nutritionist whenever you choose to. AI Diet Assistant - ask questions like "does maltodextrin contain gluten?" and get an instant AI-generated answer as a starting point for your own research, not a medical opinion. Offline Scan History - no signal in the supermarket is no problem: your saved scan history and basic app functions work without an active connection; live label scanning needs a network connection to run the AI analysis. WHO SAFEBITE IS FOR Parents managing a child's nut-free or dairy-free diet with a quick scan before a snack; people with Celiac disease or gluten sensitivity checking labels for cross-contamination warnings printed on the package; health-conscious shoppers avoiding specific additives or preservatives; and travelers who want a translated allergen flag on a foreign-language label. IMPORTANT: NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR READING THE LABEL OR MEDICAL ADVICE SafeBite uses AI text recognition and an ingredient database to flag likely allergens, but it can make mistakes: text can be misread from a photo, an ingredient database can be incomplete or out of date, and cross-contamination risk is only flagged when a manufacturer prints a warning on the package. SafeBite is not a medical device, does not diagnose or treat any condition, and a scan result is not a guarantee that a product is safe for you to eat. Always read the actual printed label yourself before eating, and talk to your doctor or a registered allergist about managing a food allergy, especially a severe or life-threatening one. HOW YOUR DATA IS HANDLED Your allergen profile and scan history are stored on your device. When you scan a label or menu, that photo is sent to our AI service to read and analyze the ingredients, which is required for the scanning feature to work. When you choose to export or share a scan report with your doctor or nutritionist, that is your own action using your device's normal sharing options. This app is ad-supported.
