Priority allergens, gluten and sulphites
One photo of the label.
One line per person.
In the aisle, you re-read every label for every one of your children. Frecita reads the ingredient list and reports, profile by profile, what it found — and under which hidden name.
Frecita opens soon in Quebec.
Nothing to download, nothing to fill in here.
That jar: nothing on the front says what the ingredient list says.
Hidden names — what is printed, what it means
The proof is quoted, not summarized
Frecita does not simply announce an allergen: it shows the fragment of the label where it found it. That is what makes a skeptical parent trust a machine.

Frecita
Léa
No priority allergen detected
Nothing found for Léa on this label.
Noé
Allergen detected
Milk (casein) — found in: “...sunflower oil, casein, natural flavour...”
Frecita reads the label it is shown. The packaging remains the final authority.
When in doubt, do not eat it.
Three states. Never a score.
Nothing here grades a food as good or bad. Frecita reports what a label says, for one given profile, and hands the decision back to you.
No priority allergen detected
None of this profile’s allergens appears on the label that was read.
Possible traces
The label carries a “may contain” warning. Frecita shows it to you instead of ignoring it.
Allergen detected
The allergen is there, with its hidden name and the label fragment quoted word for word.
Ninety seconds, one hand on the cart
How it will work
You say who it is for
A first name, then each person’s allergens. Up to six profiles per household. No account, no password.
You photograph the ingredient list
In the aisle, one hand on the cart. The package can be imported, English-only, or it can be the restaurant menu.
Frecita answers, one line per person
What she found, under which name, and the exact fragment of the label where she found it. In seconds.
Who Frecita is for
The same label reading, the same answer per person. What changes is who is reading it.
Young people
At seventeen, you eat alone, away from a parent’s eyes. Five scans free, no account, no password: this is built for someone who has never read an ingredient list in their life.
Families
Up to six profiles under one roof, each with their own allergens. One photo, one line per person — not an average, not one score for everybody.
Mothers
The one already re-reading every label, every time. Frecita does not replace her: it catches the hidden names and the “may contain” warnings a rushed aisle makes you miss.
Schools
Cafeterias, camps, field trips, lunch boxes. Every product page stays public and free, to share with no account and no licence.
Institutions
Daycares, cégeps, residences, collective kitchens. Reading a label for a tray or for a grocery basket is the same work.
Professionals
Dietitians, allergy clinics, pediatricians. A tool that quotes the label word for word instead of summarizing it, and that makes no diagnosis.
One product, the same reading for everyone: there is no separate institutional edition. Frecita opens soon in Quebec.
What a scoring app will not tell you
The hidden names
Casein, semolina, gingelly, lactalbumin: more than two hundred aliases resolve to the priority allergen they belong to. And coconut is not a tree nut — Frecita avoids the false alarms too.
Traces, as a state of their own
In Canada, “may contain” is voluntary: its absence proves nothing. When the warning is there, Frecita makes it one of the three verdict states, not a footnote.
Imported, English-only, the menu
An imported box, an English-only package, a restaurant menu: it gets read anyway.
The recall, the same day
When the CFIA recalls a product for an undeclared allergen, the families who scanned it get an email.
Five scans free, no account
A teenager who has never read an ingredient list, a family that cannot pay: both get a straight answer. And every product page stays public and free, forever.

Because giving a treat should stay a pleasure
You are not checking allergens alone anymore
Frecita checks with you: it reads the ingredient list, names what it found and under which hidden name, then hands the decision back to you. Nobody should have to guess in a grocery aisle. Coming soon in Quebec, in French and in English, on the phone you already carry.
