About HypeCheck
What is HypeCheck?
HypeCheck is an AI-powered analysis platform that evaluates supplement and health product claims against scientific evidence. We analyze ingredient labels, clinical research, dosing, pricing, and marketing claims to give consumers a clear, evidence-based verdict on whether a product lives up to its hype.
Why We Built This
The supplement industry is a $60+ billion market with minimal regulation. Consumers are bombarded with health product ads on TikTok, Instagram, and podcasts, but have no quick way to verify if the claims are backed by science or if the doses actually match clinical evidence.
We built HypeCheck because we were tired of Googling "Is [product] a scam?" and getting either affiliate-driven fake reviews or forum posts with no citations. Every HypeCheck analysis references specific ingredients, their clinically effective doses, and the evidence (or lack thereof) behind each claim.
Our Approach
- Evidence-based: Every analysis cross-references ingredients against PubMed research, NIH databases, and clinical dosing guidelines.
- Transparent: We show our work. Every ingredient gets an evidence rating, effective dose comparison, and source citations.
- Independent: We are not paid by supplement companies. Our analyses are generated by AI and reviewed for accuracy.
- Fast: Traditional lab testing takes weeks. Our AI analysis can evaluate a product within minutes of receiving a URL.
Important Disclaimers
- HypeCheck is an informational tool, not medical advice. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any supplement.
- Our analyses evaluate claims and ingredient labels as published by the manufacturer. We do not perform lab testing of physical products.
- AI-generated analyses are reviewed for accuracy but may contain errors. We encourage users to verify findings with their own research.
- We never use language like "scam" or "fraud" about specific companies. Our ratings reflect the evidence behind product claims.
