A new digital platform called Vegan Check has entered beta testing, offering a user-driven tool for locating and sharing vegan products in local markets. Founded by Wagner Carvalho, the platform differentiates itself from automated or corporate-curated databases by relying exclusively on contributions from its user community.
User-verified, not algorithm-driven
Vegan Check enables consumers to search for verified vegan products, share discoveries, and explore options in their vicinity using a map-based interface. The system excludes AI-generated reviews or algorithmic scraping, focusing instead on authentic user input.
Key features of the platform include:
- Community-verified product searches
- Location-based discovery of vegan products
- Simple product submission process
- Exclusion of artificial data or fake reviews
From grassroots to greater good
Carvalho describes the platform as a grassroots initiative that emphasizes community engagement and transparency. Vegan Check is maintained by WRCC Design and is intended to support ethical consumption by connecting users with vegan products and businesses aligned with sustainability principles.
The platform also plans to incorporate vegan-focused advertising and partnerships selectively, prioritizing collaborators whose values correspond with its ethical framework. Vegan Check intends to contribute to the broader ecosystem by supporting animal sanctuaries and grassroots organizations through its operations.
Early adopters are encouraged to test the app by sharing vegan products they encounter locally, ranging from plant-based foods to cruelty-free personal care items. Carvalho stated in an announcement, “It is a place where anyone can share and discover vegan-friendly products in their local area. There’s no big database or AI behind it—just real people posting real products they use and love.”
