How it works
Barcode first. Label photo when it isn’t.
Three steps from “what is this?” to a verdict you can act on.
Scan
Aim at a barcode for known products. For new ones, snap the ingredient panel and PetEats extracts the text.
Read
Each ingredient is matched against the PetEats database and rated for your pet’s species, age, and known allergens.
Decide
You get a score, a verdict in plain English, and a flagged ingredients list. Save the scan to compare later.
Why it exists
Pet food labels are tiny, dense, and easy to skim past.
We built PetEats so the bowl decision takes thirty seconds, not thirty minutes.
