Allergen labels weren't written for our foods

Standard allergen databases are built around Western supermarket foods. If you grew up eating egusi, ogbono, injera, fufu, roti, biryani, jerk chicken, pho or dim sum โ€” you are invisible to most allergy apps. Hidden allergens lurk under unfamiliar names, and the consequences can be life-threatening. AllergyGuard was built to change that.

2M+
people in the UK have a diagnosed food allergy, many from minority communities
200+
hidden names allergens can hide under on food and product labels
60%
of allergic reactions happen at home due to unrecognised ingredients

Your AI allergen guardian

AllergyGuard gives every family โ€” regardless of where their food comes from โ€” the knowledge and confidence to stay safe.

๐Ÿ”
Instant ingredient scan

Paste an ingredients list, describe a food by name, or scan a barcode โ€” get an instant safe, warning or unsafe verdict with a full ingredient breakdown.

๐Ÿ“ท
Barcode scanner

Point your camera at any product barcode. AllergyGuard identifies the product and analyses it against your allergen profile automatically.

๐ŸŒ
Truly global food knowledge

From suya and egusi to biryani, injera, roti, dim sum and jerk chicken โ€” our AI understands the ingredients, cooking methods and hidden allergens in foods from every corner of the world.

๐Ÿงด
Beyond food

Check cosmetics and skincare for harmful ingredients, clothing labels for fabric allergens like latex and nickel, and medications for hidden excipients like lactose and gelatine.

๐Ÿ““
Reaction journal

Log reactions with symptoms, severity, body location and photos. View your history on a calendar to spot patterns and share reports with your GP or allergist.

๐Ÿ”Š
Read aloud

Every result can be read aloud โ€” perfect for elderly family members, visually impaired users, or when your hands are busy in the kitchen.

We know your food like family does

AllergyGuard understands that crayfish in a Nigerian pot means dried shrimp โ€” a shellfish allergen. That suya spice is packed with groundnuts. That dawadawa can trigger sensitivities. That ghee is dairy. That shrimp paste hides in so many Asian dishes. Our AI was trained on the foods your grandmother cooked, not just what's on a supermarket shelf.
