Layr turns ingredient checking into source-tracing
Layr presents an ingredient-label checker that matches declared ingredients against public authority records and shows where each finding comes from.
- For
- People checking ingredients in food, skincare, and household products
- Worth noticing
- It names 25 public authorities and displays unmatched ingredients rather than treating missing evidence as a clean bill of health.
Field notes
Layr says its indexed barcode catalog contains 3,160 product records, concentrated in the United States and Canada; Europe is described as still being built. Its references span sources including FDA inventories, EU regulations, the OECD PFAS reference list, and USDA FoodData Central. The operator, HolyFat UG, also sells skincare; the site says its own products receive the same scoring and are excluded from comparisons judging other products.
