About Clem: Food Health Scanner
Clem scores every grocery item on one honest, research-backed scale, then tells you whether it's right for you. Same food, personal advice. AN HONEST SCORE YOU CAN TRUST Clem's 0–100 score measures the food itself, not your preferences, so it's consistent and objective. And it isn't a number an AI made up. AI reads the label; a transparent, deterministic formula does the math. Scan the same product twice and you get the same score every time, with a report card showing exactly why. Five dimensions, each backed by peer-reviewed research: • Ingredient Quality: fewer, recognizable ingredients score higher (Machado et al., 2021) • Processing Level: based on the NOVA system; ultra-processed foods are linked to higher disease risk (Lane et al., 2024, 9.9M participants) • Additive Safety: rated against CSPI's evidence-based Chemical Cuisine database • Nutritional Balance: sugar, sodium, and saturated fat measured against WHO and American Heart Association guidelines • Nutritional Upside: rewards foods that actually nourish (ANDI nutrient-density framework) You see all five as letter grades on every scan. Nothing is hidden. IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU? A great score doesn't always mean "buy it"; that depends on how you eat. Tell Clem your diet, allergens, and the foods you'd rather avoid, and every scan gets a personal verdict on top of the score: • Allergens: flag gluten, dairy, or tree nuts, and a product that contains them is marked "Not For You," no matter how well it scores • Diets: Keto, Paleo, Mediterranean, Vegan, Vegetarian, or Standard, with conflicts called out for you • Avoidances: seed oils, added sugars, additives, and ultra-processed foods, flagged so you can decide Scan a steak as a vegan and it still earns its quality score, but Clem flags it red and tells you to skip it. The number rates the food; the verdict is for you. A simple green / yellow / red call makes it obvious at a glance. CLEM'S TAKE One short editorial read per product: the single place Clem uses AI to write. It explains the verdict in plain language for your specific diet and points you toward something better when there's a reason to. It never changes your score. ON EVERY SCAN • A transparent 0–100 score with a full letter-grade report card • A personal green/yellow/red verdict based on your diet and allergens • Ingredient breakdown with concerns highlighted in plain language • Additives flagged by safety tier, each explained • Seed-oil and ultra-processing detection • Full nutrition facts, per serving • Healthier alternatives: real products that score better • Clem's Take editorial, written for your profile BUILD YOUR OWN SHELF Search a growing database of common grocery products, save the ones worth buying again, and keep a history of everything you've scanned.

What’s new
Version 1.7.0 · Updated October 13, 2026
A faster way to get started. • Scan first. Your first scan now happens right at the start, before you sign in, so you see what Clem does in seconds. Scan a barcode, snap a photo, or try a sample if you don't have a product nearby. • Make it yours. Right after your first scan, pick your diet and what you want to avoid, and watch the result color change for you. The score stays the same for everyone. The color is personal. • Shorter setup. Onboarding went from 13 screens to 8. • Sam's Club is now one of the stores you can choose. • Barcode results now show a product photo when we have one. • Product not found? Snap the label and Clem reads it for you. • Every result shows where its data comes from, and you can tap "Not right?" to tell us when something looks off. • Smoother sign-in and lots of small fixes.
