How it works

From label to verdict in one scan

No nutrition science degree required. Point your camera, and KelHem does the reading.

01

Scan the label

Point your phone at any ingredient list or barcode. Works on packaged food, supplements, and personal care products.

02

Set your profile

Tell KelHem what you're managing — diabetes, cholesterol, blood pressure, weight — once. It remembers.

03

Get a clear verdict

Every ingredient is checked against your profile and explained in plain language, not a chemistry lecture.

Built around you

Flags tuned to what you're managing

KelHem doesn't grade products in the abstract — it checks them against the conditions that matter to you.

Blood sugar

Flags added sugars, syrups, and refined starches that spike glucose.

Cholesterol

Surfaces saturated fats, trans fats, and hidden oils affecting heart health.

Blood pressure

Tracks sodium and additives that push against your target range.

Weight management

Highlights calorie density and portion-relevant serving details.

When something's flagged

We don't just say no — we show you what's next

A flag on its own leaves you back at square one. When KelHem catches something that works against your profile, it surfaces nearby products in the same category that clear your flags — ranked by how well they fit, not by what's popular.

Same category, cleaner list. Swaps are matched to what you were actually holding — snack bar for snack bar, not a random substitute.

Ranked by your profile. Options are ordered by how many of your flags they clear, not by rating or price.

Available where you're standing. When store data is available, suggestions prioritize what's actually on the shelf near you.

Why KelHem

Ingredient lists were written for regulators, not for you

Most people managing a health condition still have to decode ingredient panels by hand — cross-referencing unfamiliar names against advice from a doctor, a pamphlet, or a search engine. KelHem closes that gap at the shelf, not after the fact.

We built it after watching that exact struggle play out in our own families: a label that's technically compliant, but practically unreadable.

The technology

What's actually happening when you scan

KelHem combines computer vision, an ingredient database, and condition-matching logic to turn a photo into a verdict in under two seconds.

Capture

Optical label recognition

Your camera reads the ingredient panel directly off the package — no barcode required, and it works on crumpled, curved, or low-light labels most scanners fail on.

Parse

Ingredient normalization

Raw label text is broken into individual ingredients and matched against scientific and market names, including regional aliases and reformulated variants.

Match

Condition-aware scoring

Every ingredient is checked against a clinically-informed rule set for the conditions in your profile, not a generic health score.

Explain

Plain-language verdict

Instead of a jargon-heavy report, you get a short explanation of what was flagged and why it matters for you specifically.

Why it matters

Built for the moment you're standing in the aisle

The value isn't the scan itself — it's what it saves you from doing the hard way.

01

Decide in the store, not after

No more buying something, going home, and realizing an ingredient works against your condition. The verdict comes before checkout.

02

One profile, every product

Set your conditions once. KelHem applies the same standard consistently across snacks, supplements, and personal care items — no re-learning label language each time.

03

Fewer unfamiliar names, less guesswork

Chemical and marketing names for the same ingredient get reconciled automatically, so a flagged ingredient can't slip through under a different label.

04

Explanations, not just warnings

Every flag tells you which condition it affects and why, so you build real label literacy over time instead of relying on the app forever.

Simple pricing
