SupplementIQ analyses dietary supplements: scan a barcode or a label and it returns an ingredient breakdown, a safety rating and a review of what the research actually supports, alongside personalised recommendations. A ‘My Supplements’ section tracks what you are taking, a Learn section covers the underlying evidence, and consultant access sits behind that.
Supplements are an unusually good target for this. The category is barely regulated, labels are written to imply efficacy that trials do not support, and the gap between what an ingredient is marketed for and what it has been shown to do is the single hardest thing for a shopper to see while holding the bottle. A barcode scan that surfaces the evidence at that moment is the right intervention at the right point.
Read the output as research summarisation, not as advice. Personalised recommendations from a tool that does not know your medications is the part to be careful with, because supplement interactions – St John’s wort against hormonal contraceptives and antidepressants, vitamin K against warfarin, high-dose fish oil against anticoagulants – are exactly what a label scanner cannot see and exactly where the harm is. Take anything it suggests to a pharmacist or doctor before acting on it. No rates are published; a Premium tier is referenced and no company entity is named.
