Maker

We use Vercel to deploy the web version of Bite Insight at biteinsight.app. It allows us to work from a single codebase and quickly deploy, test and iterate on the product. As a solo founder and product designer, that has been incredibly useful. I can make improvements, test ideas and get changes in front of real users quickly without managing a complicated deployment process. That has shaped how Bite Insight has grown. Rather than building everything upfront, I can launch, learn from how people actually use the product and continuously improve the experience based on real feedback.

👋 Hey Product Hunt! Bite Insight actually came from something pretty personal. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes a few years ago, and suddenly I was paying a lot more attention to what was actually in the food I was eating. The problem was, food labels weren’t particularly helpful. I could see the calories, carbs, sugar, fat and a massive list of ingredients, but what I really wanted to know was: is this food actually a good choice for me? I tried different apps, but most seemed to give me even more nutritional data rather than helping me understand it. And they didn’t really know anything about me. So I started designing Bite Insight. The idea is really simple. Scan the barcode on a food and Bite Insight looks at it based on you, your health conditions, allergies and dietary preferences, and highlights the things you might actually want to know about. What started as something I wanted for myself is now being used by hundreds of people, who’ve scanned thousands of products between them. That’s probably been the nicest part of all of this. Realising the problem I had wasn’t just my problem. There’s still loads I want to add and improve, so I’d genuinely love to hear what you think. If you try Bite Insight, tell me what works, what doesn’t, or what you’d like to see next. Thanks for checking it out! 🙌
