A scanner for every aisle
Scan any barcode. Get a clean 0 to 100 score backed by published regulator data, not opinions.
In-store scanning
Open the camera, walk the aisle, and a score floats over every barcode in under a second.
When a score is low, Chue surfaces healthier products in the same category, ranked.
Enter your ZIP at setup. Chue pulls EPA Safe Drinking Water records and grades five years of violations on the same scale.
Honest by design
Most apps hand you a number. Chue shows the published decision behind it, and flags the hazards the others quietly skip.
Reflects each app's publicly described approach; features may change. Chue cites every decision in the app, so you can verify it yourself.
An honest score on everything you scan. Free on iOS and Android, no account needed to start.
Built so you can stop reading the back of the box.
Questions
It is true plus chew. Chue helps you see what is true about what you chew: an honest, regulator-backed score on every food and product you scan.
Every product gets one number from 0 to 100. The score combines Nutri-Score (60 percent), additive risk (30 percent), and organic certification (10 percent). A hazardous additive or a Nutri-Score of D or E caps the result at 49.
Open Food Facts and Open Beauty Facts for product identity. Nutri-Score for nutrition. Regulatory cross-reference against FDA, EFSA, IARC, ANSES, JECFA, NTP, and California Prop 65. EPA SDWIS for tap water.
Yes. Unlimited barcode scans, hazard flags, banned-abroad warnings, multi-source citations, save and blacklist. All free, no account needed for your first 50 scans.
No. Zero brand money. No sponsored scores. No verified-clean badges sold to manufacturers. Revenue comes only from Premium subscribers.
Because a single hazardous additive (something a regulator has classified as carcinogenic, banned in another market, or restricted) is not redeemed by fortified vitamins elsewhere. The ceiling is the honesty signal.
Chue falls back to photo search. Aim at the ingredient panel. You can also contribute the product to Open Food Facts in two taps so the next person scanning the same brand gets a hit.
During onboarding you enter your ZIP. Chue pulls EPA Safe Drinking Water records for the public utility serving you and grades the last five years of violations on the same 0 to 100 scale.
