SafaScan is a halal ingredient scanner built for everyday shopping rather than for research. Point the camera at a barcode and SafaScan resolves the product's ingredient statement, traces the questionable components back to their likely source, and returns a clear verdict: halal, haram, or mushbooh. Each verdict comes with the reasoning behind it, so you are never asked to trust a green checkmark you cannot interrogate.
Most halal uncertainty in a modern supermarket comes from a small set of recurring ingredients — gelatin, mono- and diglycerides, L-cysteine, carmine, natural flavours, enzymes, and alcohol-based extracts. SafaScan tracks these directly, flags them when the source is unclear, and explains which scholarly positions treat them differently. Where certification information exists, it is shown alongside the verdict.
Beyond scanning, SafaScan includes daily faith-centered wellness content and a growing library of written verdicts for products people ask about most. It is built by MetricPoint, which also publishes Foodsage for food sensitivity and autoimmune-aware eating and LabelBaby for infant nutrition, and offers all three to organizations as part of an inclusive employee benefits package.
Frequently asked questions
How does SafaScan check if a product is halal?
- SafaScan reads the ingredient list from a barcode or photo and compares each ingredient against halal standards, returning a Halal, Mushbooh, or Haram verdict.
Does SafaScan work when travelling or eating out?
- Yes. SafaScan works on packaged products anywhere and includes guidance for shopping and dining in unfamiliar places.
What does Mushbooh mean in SafaScan?
- Mushbooh means doubtful — the ingredient's source could be halal or haram depending on how it was produced, so SafaScan flags it for your judgement.
Is SafaScan free?
- Yes. SafaScan is free to use as a web app in your browser — no download required. A native iOS and Android app is in development.
How can you tell if something is halal?
- Check three things in order: a recognised halal certification mark on the pack, then the ingredient list for gelatin, mono- and diglycerides, L-cysteine, carmine, rennet, alcohol-based flavouring and undisclosed enzymes, then the manufacturer's own statement. A halal check app such as SafaScan does all three from a barcode scan and explains the reasoning behind each verdict.
Is there an app to scan halal food products?
- Yes. SafaScan is a halal scanner you can use right now as a free web app — no download needed. Scan a barcode or photograph the ingredient list and it returns a halal, haram, or mushbooh verdict per ingredient, with the reasoning shown.
