Yuka

Yuka is a French consumer health technology company that develops and operates a mobile application designed to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions about food and cosmetic products. The app enables users to scan product barcodes and instantly receive a health impact score and detailed breakdown of ingredients, additives, and nutritional content. For food products, Yuka evaluates factors such as salt levels, fat content, and the presence of additives, assigning each product a score out of 100 and a corresponding quality rating ranging from 'Excellent' to 'Bad.' For cosmetic products, the app identifies potentially harmful ingredients including endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, allergens, and irritants, giving consumers a clear picture of what they are applying to their bodies. Beyond simple scoring, Yuka also provides personalized recommendations for healthier alternative products, guiding users toward better choices across both food and personal care categories. The platform positions itself as fully independent, emphasizing that no brand or industrial group can influence its ratings or recommendations. The company explicitly prohibits paid promotional placements within the app, ensuring that no manufacturer can pay to have its products featured or ranked more favorably. Yuka finances its operations through three responsible revenue streams designed to eliminate conflicts of interest and preserve the objectivity of its analyses. With over 82 million users and a rating of 4.7 out of 5 based on more than 300,000 reviews, Yuka has established itself as one of the leading consumer health apps in the French-speaking market and beyond. The platform serves everyday consumers seeking transparency in product labeling across the food and cosmetics sectors.
