About Nime: Food & Allergen Scanner
Nime shows you what is really in your food, and now also in your cosmetics, supplements, pet food, baby products and household products. Scan the barcode or take a photo and within seconds you get one clear score with the reasons behind it. No marketing, no sponsored brands. ONE SCORE, WITH THE REASONS Every product gets a number from 0 to 100. Below it you see the strong points, the weak points and the composition: what share of the ingredients is good, fair or poor. You understand at a glance why oats score 86 and chocolate spread scores 14. SEE THE RISKS, NOT JUST A NUMBER For each product Nime checks pesticides, microplastics, carcinogens (IARC) and contaminants such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury. Every risk is checked against EU limits and published research, with the source attached. SCAN EVERYTHING IN YOUR HOME • Food: barcode, ingredient list or fresh produce • Cosmetics and personal care: endocrine disruptors, allergens and irritants • Supplements: doses compared with EFSA upper limits • Pet food: FEDIAF guidelines for dogs and cats • Baby: stricter rules for children under three • Household: CLP hazard labels explained • Restaurants: chain menus, scored per dish • Companies: how does a brand score across all its products? PERSONAL TO YOU Set your allergies, intolerances and diet once: gluten free, vegan, keto, paleo, dairy free or your own rules. Nime warns you on every scan, including hidden allergens in "may contain traces" notes. The same product can be a good choice for you and a poor one for someone else. FIND THE BETTER CHOICE Low score? Nime puts healthier alternatives from the same category next to it and compares them point by point. Switching is one tap. ZONE: HOW HEALTHY IS YOUR AREA? Check your tap water quality (including PFAS, lead and nitrate), air quality, noise and pollen at your address. Add your work, school or holiday spot and compare. Data from national institutes, water utilities, the EU and OpenAQ, across Europe. DISCOVER: NEW EVERY DAY Recalls and EU alerts, EFSA lab findings, new research and European Court rulings on food law. Nime links them to the products in your scan history and notifies you when something affects you. MORE • Share a scan as a card with friends and family • Streaks and weekly challenges to keep scanning • Product not found? Take three photos and we add it • Light and dark mode • Available in English, Dutch, German, French, Italian and Spanish FREE AND PRO Scanning and the score are free.
