Pet Food Scanner: PawLens

Scan any cat or dog food and see what the label hides.

Point your camera at a barcode or snap the label, and PawLens shows a clear 0–100 score built from the nutrition math on the package — protein, carbs, fat, and calories, all normalized to dry matter so wet and dry foods compare fairly. The same food always gets the same score, for everyone. No sponsorships, no favorites.

Add your pet's profile and PawLens goes further: it checks every food against their allergies and health conditions and tells you, in plain words, whether it's a good match for them.

WHY DRY MATTER? A wet food that says "9% protein" isn't low-protein — it's mostly water. Remove the water and it might be 45%. That one calculation changes how you see every label, and PawLens does it for every food, instantly. We show the math too.

Made for pet parents who read labels — and for the pets who can't.
