Everything you need to live well with Alpha-gal.
Scout is your personal toolkit for life with Alpha-gal Syndrome. Build a profile around your own triggers, scan labels and menus when you are out, log how foods treat you, and keep it all in one calm, private place.
Built for people living with Alpha-gal, by someone who has it too.
Why we built Scout
Hi, I'm Adam. I live with Alpha-gal Syndrome, and my partner, Kelsey, has lived every part of it with me. We know the grocery-aisle stare-down, the second-guessing at restaurants, and the long night of wondering whether something you ate is going to catch up with you.
We built Scout because we needed it. It is the tool we wished we had: calm, personal, and built around your body instead of a generic list. We are a small team in Asheville, building Scout for our community one feature at a time, and treating you like the capable adult you are, not a patient.
Scout is made by Just Enjoy It LLC, based in Asheville, North Carolina.
So much more than a scanner
Scanning is just one piece. Scout is built around you, from the first time you open it.
Your Sensitivity Profile
Scout starts with you. Set your triggers and your reaction level, from mild to super-reactor, so everything Scout shows you is measured against your body, not a one-size-fits-all list.
Scan labels and menus
Point your camera at an ingredient label or a restaurant menu and Scout reads what is actually there, then checks it against your profile. No barcode database that might be missing or out of date, just the real words on the package.
Reaction Log
Log what you eat and how it treated you. Over time, Scout becomes your personal record of what works and what to skip, so you are not relying on memory alone.
Your History
Every scan and every entry stays saved and searchable, so you can look back before you buy or order again.
Keep Watch
A gentle companion timer for the hours after you eat, if you want one. No symptom check-ins, no pressure, just quiet company through the window with a single gentle nudge when it closes.
How Scout fits into your day
- 1
Set up your profile
Tell Scout your triggers and reaction level. This is what makes every answer yours.
- 2
Use it out in the world
Scan a label or a menu, check something before you buy, and log how it goes.
- 3
Build your own record
Your reactions and history stay saved, so Scout gets more useful the more you use it.
Calm by design.
Scout gives you information, not verdicts. It will not tell you that you are safe or diagnose anything. It simply shows you what is on the label and how it lines up with your profile, so you can decide. Calm, clear, and never alarmist.
Your data stays yours.
We take privacy seriously. We never sell your data, and we only use your information to run Scout. When you delete your account, we begin deleting your profile, reaction log, and history. Our Privacy Policy explains exactly how we handle your information.
