Start free, go deeper when you’re ready.
Core scanning - the thing that does the daily work - costs nothing. Always. Premium tiers exist to fund the intelligence layer, not to hold the basics hostage.
Safety shouldn’t be a luxury.
Food allergy awareness is not a premium feature. It is the floor. Bud’s free tier will always include the ability to scan a product and know whether the declared ingredients match your profile. That is a commitment, not a marketing promise.
Your subscription unlocks deeper intelligence - the reports, the memory, the pattern recognition, the bio-feedback loop that helps Bud become more useful to you over time. That layer takes real infrastructure and real research to build. Your subscription funds it directly.
No ads. No data harvesting. No upselling from a place of fear.
Always Free
Core OCR scanning and allergy checks will never move behind a paywall. 3 million Canadians rely on this kind of protection. We take that seriously.
Premium Funds Intelligence
Ingredient deep-dives, receipt analysis, and bio-feedback loops require significant compute. Subscriptions pay for that directly - and only that.
No Hidden Costs
The price you see is the price you pay. No feature drip, no dark patterns, no renewal surprises.
Three tiers. One commitment.

Safety check. Intelligence layer. Bio-feedback loop.
Bud is built as a system that deepens over time. You choose how far in you want to go.
Safety Check
The foundation. Bud reads the label, cross-references your profile, and gives you a clear verdict: Compatible, Caution, or Avoid. No guessing. No ambiguity. Always available.
Intelligence Layer
Beyond the verdict, Bud breaks down why. Every ingredient traced to its source. Every tradeoff surfaced. Receipt scanning that turns your whole grocery run into a health audit. Pantry memory that learns what matches your profile in your home.
Bio-Feedback Loop
Bud begins to learn your specific biology. Symptom check-ins feed a predictive model that gets more accurate with every scan. Bud Predicts surfaces patterns before they become problems. This is the intelligence tier - designed for people who want a true grocery companion, not just a label reader.
Everything, side by side.
