Tips, news, and insights for vegan shopping
The Vegan Confirmed backend is now open source under the MIT license, at https://github.com/ainzzorl/veganconfirmed-backend. It runs on GCP and is backed by Gemini.
You can view all the prompts the model is given, along with the test cases we use to check its verdicts. If you spot a wrong verdict or want to suggest an improvement, issues and pull requests are welcome.
Version 1.0.3 of Vegan Confirmed adds cruelty-free product detection. In addition to checking if products are vegan, the extension now analyzes whether cosmetics, personal care items, and household products are cruelty-free and not tested on animals.
The feature looks for cruelty-free certifications like Leaping Bunny and PETA, brand statements about animal testing policies, and considers parent company practices. This information is displayed alongside the vegan status, helping you shop with your values in mind.
We're excited to launch Vegan Confirmed, your AI-powered shopping assistant that makes finding vegan products effortless. Whether you're a long-time vegan or just starting your journey, our browser extension helps you make informed choices while shopping online.
Simply install the extension, browse your favorite online stores, and get instant feedback on whether products contain animal-derived ingredients. No more squinting at ingredient lists or wondering if that unfamiliar additive is vegan-friendly.
