Take a clear, straight-on photo of just the Ingredients block — close enough that the text fills the frame.

Example — the Ingredients block on the back of the bag. Fill the frame and keep text in sharp focus.Tap the photo to enlarge.

How this works

We extract ingredients from the photo, compare them to a species-specific allergen library, and combine that with your symptom pattern and duration to produce a probability band. This is a screening signal, not a diagnosis.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Is this a diagnosis?

    No. It's a screening signal. Elimination-diet trials with your veterinarian remain the gold standard for confirming food sensitivity.

  • What if the photo is unreadable?

    The checker will tell you. Take a well-lit, close-up photo of the Ingredients section only — not the whole bag.

  • How many ingredients does it check?

    All ingredients on the label panel. We match each against a species-specific allergen library and weight them by label position.

  • Which symptoms can I pick?

    Itching, ear infection, vomiting, diarrhea, skin rash or hot spots, paw licking or chewing, hair loss, flatulence. Pick up to 3 of the strongest.

  • What happens to the photo I upload?

    The image is sent to an OCR service to read the ingredients and is not stored by us. See the privacy policy for details.
