Soosee

Soosee helps you easily check for allergens and ingredients in the products you eat.

My ex girlfriend was allergic to oranges. Every time I went to get groceries for her I would have to check the ingredient list to check for oranges or derivatives. When Corona started I was stuck home for a few weeks so I decided to build an app that quickly scans the ingredient list for words that you're allergic to. While I'm fortunately not allergic to anything, it's already been useful for me when doing groceries for a friend of mine who is lactose intolerant. And because the app can scan in different languages it's also useful for when you're on vacation! You can see it in action here. With the help of more than 15 people from all over the world, the app is now translated into more than 12 languages from Lithuanian to Chinese to Hungarian to Italian. With more being worked on as I type this. The word lists for the most common allergies are translated to 20 languages. Besides allergies and vegan products I'm working on adding support for ingredients that have an impact on the environment such as palm oil ?, ingredients related to religions such as halal, as well as diets and cosmetics (the product in the video is an example of how that could work). I'm hoping to get some feedback from people with allergies on if this would be useful and how I could improve the app more.
