About Glycemic Genius: Diabetes Scan
Glycemic Genius is the AI-powered glycemic index scanner that helps you manage blood sugar and shop smarter, one nutrition label at a time.
Point your camera at any packaged food label and Glycemic Genius reads the carbs, fiber, sugars and serving size to give you an instant glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) estimate.
No barcode database to wait on, no manual food logging, just a fast, clear blood sugar estimate you can use right there in the grocery aisle.
WHY GLYCEMIC GENIUS
- Instant glycemic index and glycemic load estimates from a photo of any nutrition label
- AI food scanner and label scanner built for real, packaged foods
- Compare two products and choose the lower glycemic index, lower blood sugar option
- Adjust portions to see how serving size changes glycemic load and glucose impact
- Save foods to your pantry and keep a running glucose log of recent scans
A GLYCEMIC INDEX SCANNER THAT READS FIBER TOO
Fiber changes everything. Two foods with identical carbs can have very different glycemic load once fiber is counted. Glycemic Genius reads total carbs, sugars and fiber straight off the label, then estimates net carbs, glycemic index and glycemic load so you see the real blood sugar picture, not just a carb count.
BUILT FOR BLOOD SUGAR AND DIABETES
Whether you are managing type 2 diabetes, prediabetes or gestational diabetes, following a low GI or low carb diet, counting carbs, tracking glucose alongside a CGM or wearable, navigating PCOS, or supporting a GLP-1 or weight loss plan, Glycemic Genius helps you understand how packaged food affects your blood sugar before it lands in your cart.
HOW THE FOOD LABEL SCANNER WORKS
1. Open the app and scan a nutrition label
2. Get an instant glycemic index and glycemic load estimate
3. Compare options, adjust portions, save to your pantry and shop with confidence
A SMARTER LOW GI DIET COMPANION
Stop guessing glycemic index values and searching endless GI charts. Glycemic Genius does the carb, fiber and glycemic math for you, so every trip to the supermarket supports better blood sugar management and steadier glucose - helping you avoid the foods that spike blood sugar and find the low GI, low glycemic load foods that keep you steady.
WHO USES GLYCEMIC GENIUS
- People with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes who want a simple blood sugar scanner
- Anyone on a low GI diet, low carb diet or keto diet who needs fast carb and fiber answers
- PCOS and insulin resistance journeys where glycemic load matters
- GLP-1 and weight loss plans that depend on steady glucose
- Caregivers and shoppers who just want a clear glycemic index reading on any label
FREE AND PREMIUM
Start free, then upgrade to Premium for more scanning, product comparisons, a larger pantry and extended glucose log history.

I was recently diagnosed with prediabetes, and this app is helping me evaluate and change my eating habits, so I don't develop diabetes. The ability to evaluate any product in the grocery store and get an accurate assessment is game changer! So much better than the flood of apps that regurgitate basic info from a gi...
I love this app! As a prediabetic who had no idea what to look for in foods, this app comes in handy while grocery shopping. I like this app so much I paid for the premium version, but the free version is just as good.
Very useful and extremely easy to use!
