How it works

1

Set up your card

Add your allergies and diet, with severity, hidden ingredients, and the foods you safely can eat.

2

Show it to any server

It detects where you are and shows your card in the local language. No signal needed.

3

Carry an emergency card

Your medical info and the local ambulance number, ready if you ever need them.

Real diets are messier than a checklist

SafePlate handles the parts other tools skip: severity levels, cross-contamination, allergens that are not on any standard list, “I can eat it prepared this way but not that way” notes, and the foods you safely can eat. As specific as your situation actually is.

Built for safety, not just translation

Severity and cross-contamination

Mark how serious each one is, and flag where even a trace matters.

An emergency card

Medical info and the local ambulance number, in the local language.

Works offline

A dead zone in a tiny restaurant is never the problem.

No app store needed

It installs from the web and runs like an app on your phone.

Why I built this

I travel a lot with my partner, and her allergies are not on the standard lists. They come at different severity levels, and the proteins that set them off can change depending on how a dish is prepared, so there are edge cases she can actually eat that are hard to explain to a server. Every meal at some great little place off the tourist path started the same way: “okay, how do we make sure about this one?” One night in Portugal we joked about how nice it would be to have a magic card that just handled it. I figured I could build that. So I did.
