How it works
From scan to result, in seconds.
Tayyib tries the barcode first. If it can't find the product, it reads the ingredient list directly with the camera.
1
Scan
Point the camera at the barcode. Tayyib looks the product up in the open database.
2
Read the ingredients
Tayyib reads the ingredients and E-numbers and checks each against recognised rulings.
3
Result with reasons
You get a clear result. Tap an ingredient to see where it typically comes from, and where the schools of law differ, who says what.
Product not found? Add it.
Photograph the product and its ingredient list, then send it in. We check every submission and add it to Tayyib, so the next person who scans it gets an answer.
