About this app
KnowFood is India's first transparent, source-cited food ingredients analyser.
Simply scan or type the ingredients list from any food product label. KnowFood instantly checks every additive against data from the world's leading food safety authorities — WHO, EFSA, FSSAI, FSA, ICMR, and Codex Alimentarius.
WHAT KNOWFOOD DOES
- Analyses ingredients lists from any food product
- Identifies food additives (E-numbers and INS numbers)
- Shows exactly what WHO, EFSA, FSSAI, FSA and Codex say about each additive
- AI-powered summary by Know AI — powered by Groq
HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan the ingredients label with your camera, or type/paste the ingredients
2. KnowFood identifies all additives in the list
3. See what each global authority officially says — no opinions, just facts
4. Know AI gives you a concise summary based on authority data only
OUR PHILOSOPHY
"Transparent food science, zero bias."
Every claim in KnowFood is attributed to a recognised scientific authority. We never apply our own labels like "safe" or "unsafe" — we report exactly what WHO, EFSA, FSSAI, FSA, ICMR and Codex Alimentarius have officially stated.
KNOWLEDGE HUB
Learn what WHO, EFSA, FSSAI, ICMR, Codex and FSA actually are — and why their data matters for your food choices.
