Numeline helps you scan food products, verify recall status, and receive alerts when a lot is flagged. Built for speed, clarity, and privacy-first scanning.
Scan, match, and stay informed with a workflow designed to minimize friction.
Photograph the lot code: it is read for you and checked, by brand and lot, against official FDA and USDA recalls.
Get notified when a scanned product matches an official recall — monitoring continues even when the app is closed.
We also monitor FDA recall press releases, which are often published days before the enforcement database is updated.
Strict gluten avoidance including traces: a product is flagged even on a simple "may contain" statement.
Search a catalog of thousands of ingredients to avoid, or add your own foods to your profile.
Flags raw milk, deli meat, raw fish, meat and eggs, sprouts, high-mercury fish, liver, and caffeine.
Images are processed and deleted after analysis. Only the brand and lot number are kept. Payments stay in the store.
Share recall visibility across teams with organization features, role controls, and PDF, CSV, or XLSX exports.
The FDA and USDA sometimes announce a recall without publishing any lot codes — the affected items are identified only by a table of "Best if Used By" dates, or by a linked PDF.
Rather than reporting that nothing was found, Numeline flags a possible recall when the brand and product type match what you scanned, and shows you the identification details that were actually published, so you can check your own item against them.
A possible recall is never shown as a confirmed one: without a lot number, nothing proves your specific item is affected. The official notice is always one tap away.
Two steps at the counter: scan the barcode, then the lot number. Numeline identifies the product, checks every profile you set up, and matches the lot against official recalls.

The answer
Set up a profile for each person and Numeline tells you who a product suits and who it doesn't — here, gummy sweets flagged as possibly containing pork and gelatin for one profile, while two others are clear.
Ingredient data comes from Open Food Facts and is declarative, so it can be incomplete. Numeline flags what it finds and tells you when an origin needs checking; always read the label. A "no recall found" result means no matching recall was in the official databases at that moment — it is not a guarantee that the product is safe.
