Point your camera at any food barcode or ingredient label. Lychee also supports cosmetics, shampoo, deodorant, makeup, skincare, haircare, and other beauty products when you need a secondary scan.
Lychee checks ingredient data against EFSA, FDA, WHO, EWG, and product databases. Processing level, synthetic additives, heavy metal risk, blood sugar impact, and label concerns — all scored in under a second.
A plain-language food score and clear label context first, with secondary beauty-label support for shampoo, deodorant, skincare, haircare, and makeup. No jargon. No guilt. Just the truth so you can decide.
Not an opinion. Not a score weighted by a sponsor. One binary fact: the EU banned this ingredient or it didn't. You get that answer every single scan.
Other apps lecture you about macros and weight. Lychee ignores all of that. We only hunt for what actually harms your health: synthetic dyes, heavy metals, FDA loopholes, ultra-processing.
Lychee's score is 100% algorithmic, sourced from USDA, EFSA, WHO, EWG, and product data — updated constantly, never influenced by brand deals.
Food scanning is Lychee's core. As a secondary feature, Lychee can also scan cosmetics, shampoo, deodorant, makeup, skincare, haircare, sunscreen, fragrance, and personal-care ingredient labels.
No wall of chemical text. Lychee gives you a number and a verdict before you've finished reading the front of the box. Because you're at the store and only have 30 seconds.
Lychee is built first for packaged food scanning. The app also helps decode everyday beauty and personal-care products: shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, makeup, skincare, sunscreen, fragrance, body wash, lotion, and haircare. Scan the barcode or ingredient list and get plain-language context before you buy or apply it.
Use Lychee to translate long haircare labels with surfactants, fragrance terms, preservatives, silicones, colorants, and conditioning agents.
Scan personal-care products for ingredient roles, fragrance disclosures, preservative systems, aluminum compounds, exfoliating acids, and other label signals.
Lychee helps make makeup labels easier to read by explaining pigments, film formers, solvents, waxes, preservatives, fragrance ingredients, and common sensitivity categories.
Get context for humectants, emollients, UV filters, exfoliating acids, retinoids, fragrance, preservatives, and other skincare ingredient roles without treating the scan as medical advice.
Lychee's algorithm is trained on regulatory, food, and ingredient-safety data — not wellness trends or sponsored research. Every score traces back to a primary source you can verify. We publish our scoring criteria openly.
Lychee’s Health Score turns complicated food labels into one simple number, from 0 to 100. To calculate it, we look at a product from a few different angles:
Foods that are more heavily processed usually score lower than simpler, less altered options.
Cleaner ingredient lists tend to score better than products filled with artificial additives or industrial ingredients.
We look beyond front-of-pack claims to get a more balanced picture of what’s actually inside.
We consider things like sugar, salt, fiber, and protein.
The result is a score designed to help you compare products quickly and make smarter everyday choices. It’s not meant to replace medical advice or tell you a food is “perfect” or “bad.” It’s simply a clearer, easier way to understand how a product stacks up at a glance.
