Everything you need to know about HalalVerify and how we help you make informed dietary choices.
We cross-reference the product's barcode and ingredient list against recognized international Halal certification databases and our own constantly updated repository of manufacturer disclosures. Our advanced algorithms help identify hidden ingredients and their potential sources.
"Mashbooh" translates to "doubtful" or "questionable." We use this classification when an ingredient (like a natural flavor or emulsifier) could come from either a Halal or Haram source, and the manufacturer has not provided definitive certification. It serves as a caution for the consumer.
Yes! The core scanning and search functionality of HalalVerify is completely free for consumers. Our goal is to democratize access to this critical information to help you make informed, ethical dietary choices effortlessly.
Our database is updated daily. We continuously ingest new data from certification boards, manufacturer disclosures, and user reports. Whenever an ingredient formulation changes or a certification is revoked, our system flags it immediately.
Absolutely! We rely on our strong community. If you notice a discrepancy, simply tap the "Report" button on the product page within the app. Our review team will investigate the product and update its status if necessary.
While our primary focus is on food and beverages, our database is expanding to include common household items, cosmetics, and personal care products, as these can also contain hidden animal byproducts or alcohol.
