From recipe and specifications to a documented labelling basis.
Upload your recipe and raw-material specifications. Select the markets and languages. FoodQA creates proposed ingredient lists, identifies missing information and explains the basis behind every important result.
FoodQA needs your baking loss to finalise the order of ingredients. One question is waiting.
The specification mentions mustard on the same line. Decide whether a cross-contact statement applies.
Upload the salt specification to close this gap. Everything else is documented.
FoodQA follows the same path a labelling specialist would — it simply keeps a record of every step.
FoodQA reads recipes and specifications in their original languages.
Each raw material is matched with the document that describes it.
Where documentation is unclear or incomplete, FoodQA asks only the necessary questions.
Receive proposed label text and a documented basis behind each important result.
Every run produces the same set of results — proposed text, the questions still open, and the evidence behind both. Nothing here is a finished label until your company reviews it.
Fullkornsrågmjöl 62 %, vatten, rågsurdeg 6 % (fullkornsrågmjöl, vatten), sesamfrön 3 %, havssalt.
Compound ingredient shown with its components. Allergen emphasised. Order calculated at time of use.
Four of five raw materials are backed by a specification. Sea salt is still open.
FoodQA raises possible QUID questions from the words on your pack. Whether a quantity is required is your company’s decision.

This is a preliminary nutrition profile calculated from specifications. It is not an analysis result.
Everything above is collected into a Label Evidence Report — product and recipe versions, specification versions, sources, quotations, open questions, and the rule-profile and engine versions used for the run.
A convincing answer is not the same as a documented one. FoodQA is built so that any result can be traced, repeated and defended months later — by someone who was not in the room.
The language you work in is not the language of your documents, and neither one decides the language on the pack. FoodQA keeps them apart on purpose.
Example. A Finnish manufacturer works in English, holds Finnish and English specifications, sells into Sweden, Denmark and Germany, and needs Swedish, Danish and German label text. Changing any one of these does not change the others.
A supplier updates a specification and the document lands in an inbox. FoodQA connects that change to the products it touches, and tells you which labelling bases may no longer hold.
FoodQA never rewrites an approved label on its own. It shows what changed, what it may affect, and leaves the recalculation to you.
Before a trial batch exists, the specifications for your raw materials usually already do. FoodQA uses them to show where a recipe is heading — including the labelling consequences you would rather find now than after the artwork is printed.
Product-development output is preliminary and is not a validated formulation.
Suggested analysis: fibre and moisture on the finished product. Calculated fibre cannot replace an analysis result.
One file that holds the whole basis: which recipe and which specification versions were read, what was proposed, what was quoted, what stayed open, and which rule profile and engine produced the numbers. Written to be read by a colleague, a customer or an auditor — a year from now.

The shape below is what we are testing with pilot customers. The numbers are not fixed yet, and we would rather agree them with the first companies using FoodQA than publish something we have to walk back.
Pricing being tested with pilot customersFor occasional labelling projects
For companies managing products, markets and specification versions
For larger product portfolios and teams
Bring one product and the specifications you already have. You will see what can be documented, what needs clarification, and exactly where each result came from.
We onboard a small number of companies at a time, so a pilot starts with a conversation rather than a queue. Send an email and you will get a reply from a person.
