For shoppers reading product labels
QScan is being built to scan a barcode or label photo and present a score out of 100 with sources named. Its scope includes food, cosmetics and supplements.
Status and platform
QScan is coming soon for iPhone and Android. Join its waitlist for one email at launch. There is no public app download on this site yet.
What is public about the method
The intended product presents cited explanations alongside its score. The QScan scoring formula is not yet published. The articles below describe general scoring approaches and regulatory evidence; they are not documentation of an implemented QScan formula.
How to use a score
A score condenses information and leaves out context. Read the explanation and original source instead of treating a number as a complete judgement. QScan provides educational information, not medical advice. No account is needed to scan, as described in the product FAQ.
