THE EVIDENCE

See what supports
the result.

A synthetic shoe upper doesn’t tell you what is in the glue. A vegan claim isn’t the same as a verified certification. Veguide keeps those distinctions visible.

PRIVACY

Local history. Optional AI.

Veguide works without its own account or a mandatory cloud service. You decide whether to connect AI.

Source code

Local history

Your history is stored on your device. Delete saved checks and photos whenever you like.

Optional AI

Connect an eligible ChatGPT plan, an API provider or a compatible local model. Explicit checks may send selected text and photos to that provider.

No background AI

Store integrations use product databases in the background. AI runs when you start a check.

A few things to know

Is Veguide free?

Yes. Veguide is free and open source. Public database checks and local rules need no AI account. Optional AI providers have their own usage limits and charges.

Does it work for every product?

All product categories are in scope, including clothes and shoes. Available evidence varies. Veguide can return uncertain and explain what is missing.

Can I use my ChatGPT plan?

Eligible accounts can connect ChatGPT as an optional AI provider. The browser extension uses a small desktop companion for this connection. API-key connections work without the companion.

Where does product information come from?

Open Food Facts, Open Beauty Facts and Open Products Facts provide community product data. Supported AI connections can also research product sources. Community data and AI-read claims are not independent certification checks.

What about iPhone?

A native iOS app is planned for later. This release focuses on Android and desktop browsers.
