Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Ahmad Abbas, the co-maker of ScanZen — and I want to tell you exactly why I built this.

A few months ago, my [family member / someone close] was managing diabetes and would spend 10+ minutes in a grocery aisle — reading tiny labels, Googling ingredient names, unsure if what they were buying was actually safe. And every time, they'd still leave uncertain.

That bothered me. We have AI that can write code, generate art, hold full conversations — but we couldn't quickly tell someone if the snack in their hand had hidden sugar? That felt broken.

So I built ScanZen.
Here's what it actually does:
📸 Take a photo of ANY product — food, medicine, cosmetics, documents
🔬 Get instant ingredient-by-ingredient analysis with risk ratings (Safe / Moderate / High Risk)
📊 See an overall health score (0–100) with breakdowns for safety, transparency, and value
⚠️ Get flagged on harmful additives — with a plain-English explanation of why
💡 Receive smarter alternatives ranked by quality, with specific reasons
👤 Set your health profile (diabetic, vegan, allergies, age) for personalized results
🌍 Works in multiple languages — because most ingredient scanners ignore India entirely

We built this for parents checking snacks, people managing health conditions, fitness enthusiasts tracking macros, and anyone who refuses to buy blindly.

I'd love to hear your honest feedback — what would make this more useful for you? And if you know someone who's ever stood in a grocery aisle and stared at a label confused, this was built for them. 🙏
