How it works

From barcode to answer in seconds

No reading tiny labels or googling ingredient names in the store. Green Point does it for you.

  1. Scan the barcode

    Point your camera at the barcode of any food or cosmetic. Prefer typing? Search by product name instead.

  2. Get a clear score

    See the grade and the reasons behind it, color-coded from excellent to bad so it reads at a glance.

  3. Choose with confidence

    Keep every scan in your history, save favorites to your shelf and shop knowing exactly what you buy.

Skin Scan

A skincare routine built around your skin

Take a selfie and Green Point's AI checks ten common skin concerns, gives your skin a score out of 100 and builds a morning and night routine with products matched by active ingredient.

  • Acne
  • Oiliness
  • Dryness
  • Redness
  • Pores
  • Blackheads
  • Eye bags
  • Crow's feet
  • Pigmentation
  • Moles

Your full analysis is visible only to you. Skin Scan gives general information and does not replace advice from a dermatologist.

Features

Everything the label won't tell you

Green Point turns long ingredient lists and nutrition tables into answers you can act on.

Additives, decoded

Every E-number gets a risk level. A single high-risk additive keeps a food from scoring better than OK, however good its nutrition looks.

Ultra-processed? You'll know.

Foods are sorted into four processing levels, with the markers that put them there.

Allergens and traces

Spot allergens and possible traces in seconds, plus palm oil, vegan and vegetarian checks.

Not in the database? Snap the label.

Take a photo of the ingredient list or the nutrition table and Green Point's AI reads it and calculates the score for you.

Search, history and your shelf

Look up any product by name, find all your scans in one place and share your favorite cosmetics with friends on your own shelf.

What is Green Point?

Green Point is a food and cosmetic scanner app for iPhone and Android. Scan the barcode of a product to see how healthy a food is or how safe the ingredients of a cosmetic are, with a clear score and the reasons behind it.

How does the Green Point product scanner work?

Open the app and point your camera at the barcode. Green Point recognizes whether it is a food or a cosmetic and shows the matching analysis in seconds. You can also search for any product by name.

Is Green Point free?

Green Point is free to download and includes free scans and searches every day. Premium unlocks unlimited scans and searches, plus extra skincare insights such as which skin types a product suits. The full Skin Scan analysis is a separate one-time purchase.

What if a product is not in the database?

Take a photo of the nutrition table (food) or the ingredient list (cosmetics), then of the front of the pack. Green Point reads the label and calculates the score for you.

How is the food score calculated?

The A to E grade combines nutritional quality (60%, based on the Nutri-Score method), additives (30%) and organic status (10%). A food that contains a high-risk additive can never be rated better than OK.

What does the cosmetic score out of 20 mean?

It reflects the risk level of every ingredient in the formula. The riskiest ingredient weighs the most, and potential irritants, allergens and suspected endocrine disruptors lower the score further. The higher the score, the better.
