Managing gout doesn't have to mean memorizing lists of forbidden foods. Gout Food Scanner lets you point your camera at any food package and instantly know if it's safe — no nutrition degree required. HOW IT WORKS Photograph the ingredients or nutrition panel on any food package. Our AI-powered scanner reads the label (including messy, low-contrast, and complex packaging), identifies every ingredient, checks sodium levels, and gives you a clear Low, Medium, or High risk verdict in seconds. WHAT IT CHECKS • High-purine ingredients — organ meats, red meat, anchovies, sardines, shellfish, yeast extract • Sodium — flags servings over 400 mg (caution) and 600 mg (high risk) • Hidden fructose — high-fructose corn syrup, glucose-fructose syrup • Alcohol-derived flavourings and malt extracts • Moderate-purine items — mushrooms, asparagus, spinach, poultry, certain fish WHAT YOU GET • Instant risk verdict: LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH • Every ingredient colour-coded: safe, caution, or avoid • Accurate sodium reading from the nutrition table (per serving) • Gout-friendly alternative food suggestions • Personalised dietary feedback — warm, specific, and motivating • Full scan history stored on your device • No account or sign-up needed SMART, ACCURATE OCR We use enterprise-grade document OCR technology combined with a specialised gout nutrition AI.
