About Bioryte
Bioryte is a South African education company that helps families understand what is inside their food.
Why we exist
Ingredient lists are written for chemists, and no school programme teaches children to read them. We believe everyone has the right to know what they eat. Bioryte gives parents friendly tools to explain ingredients to their children, in plain language.
How we are different
- We explain ingredients, not products. We never give a product or a brand a score or a traffic light.
- Every ingredient has a source. We name the authority behind what we say, such as the WHO, EFSA and South African law, and we follow a published rulebook for our tags.
- Parents lead. Parents hold the accounts and choose when children play. We do not ask children for personal details.
- Brands cannot buy a result. No partner or sponsor can change what we say about an ingredient.
Our tags
LIMIT Experts suggest limiting this. LEARN Worth knowing about. COMMON Common and widely approved.
Where we are going
You can scan a product on this website now and see what is inside. The Bioryte Scan app is coming soon, and you can join the early-access list on the home page. We also plan Bioryte Education, a programme to take ingredient lessons into schools.
Who is behind it
Bioryte was founded by Bonolo Kompe in Parys, Free State, South Africa.
