MooCheck

Is it free of milk? Let's look.

MooCheck scans barcodes and ingredient labels and points out milk ingredients, including the hidden ones like whey, casein and ghee.

Coming soon to the App Store for iPhone

Scan a barcode

The quickest check for packaged food. MooCheck looks the product up in Open Food Facts, a free product database.

Snap the label

No barcode, or not in the database? Take a photo of the ingredient list and MooCheck reads it.

AI double-check

Tricky labels get a second look from AI (Anthropic's Claude), which explains what it found in plain words.

What it looks for

Milk under other names

Whey, casein and caseinates, lactose, ghee, buttermilk, milk solids and more.

Plant look-alikes are fine

Cocoa butter, coconut milk, oat milk and peanut butter aren't dairy, so they aren't flagged.

"May contain milk", separately

Some people are fine with shared-equipment warnings and some aren't. You choose in Settings.

Calories per spoon

Per serving, and per teaspoon, tablespoon and cup. Exact when the label lists spoons, estimated by AI when it only lists grams.

For dietary preferences, not allergies. MooCheck helps people who choose to avoid dairy, for example because of lactose intolerance. It isn't meant for food allergies. Photos can be misread, the AI can make mistakes, and product data can be incomplete or out of date. Always read the label on the package.
