I built Vera, a web app that scores packaged food on what actually matters: nutrition, additives, and how processed it is. Most food scanner apps hand you a single number and ask you to trust it. Vera does the opposite. It shows you why a product scores the way it does, puts the evidence behind every flagged additive in front of you, and tells you how much to trust the underlying data. Search a product or scan a barcode, get a clear breakdown with nutrient values benchmarked against UK FSA thresholds, plus better alternatives in the same category. Built with FastAPI and a Jinja2 frontend, deployed on Render, data from Open Food Facts. Try it: https://lnkd.in/eibUENrG Code: https://lnkd.in/eSt_zipT
