Our story

Built by shoppers, for shoppers.

HalalScan UK started as a weekend project to answer a simple question: "is this halal?" in the aisle, without having to search forums or wait for replies. Today we combine open food data, curated Islamic scholarship, and computer vision to give a fast, transparent answer.

Our values

• Transparency: every verdict shows the ingredients and reasoning behind it.
• Scholarship: we surface the mainstream ruling and flag differences of opinion.
• Openness: data comes from the Open Food Facts community, and contributions flow back.
