A gluten-free food scanner that reads the label

GlutenScan helps you review visible ingredients, allergen statements, and may-contain wording on the actual package — especially when a barcode database is missing, stale, or not enough.

Scan the ingredients list

Point your iPhone at the current package label. GlutenScan focuses on visible label text, not old product records.

Review allergen statements

Visible wording such as Contains: wheat, may contain wheat, or shared equipment can change the result.

Get safe, unsafe, or it depends

The public result labels are simple: safe, unsafe, or it depends. Safe is not a guarantee.

Why label-first scanning matters

Barcode-first apps can be helpful, but packaged food changes. GlutenScan is built for the moment when you are holding the product and need to review the ingredients that are printed in front of you.

  • Works when a barcode is missing or the product is imported.
  • Helps with local brands, deli labels, bakery labels, and multipacks.
  • Surfaces gluten-related terms instead of making you decode the whole label manually.

When the answer should be “it depends”

“It depends” is useful. It means the visible label does not provide enough context for a clear safe or unsafe result. That can happen when the photo is blurry, the label is cropped, or terms like oats, natural flavor, modified food starch, or soy sauce need more context.
