Who uses NFL, and for what
No invented testimonials here. This page says who the tool is built for, what each group actually uses it for, and how to check our work before you trust it with yours.
Small food brands and DTC producers
The largest group. A sauce, snack, granola or coffee brand selling on its own site, at farmers markets and into a few regional retailers, with one person doing the labels. They build the panel from the recipe in the generator, export a print-ready file for the packaging designer, and come back when the recipe changes. Most start on the free tier (three US FDA formats, JPG export, no account) and move to a paid plan when they need vector files or a second market. The DTC brands page walks through that workflow.
Bakeries, meal kits and food service
Recipes with many ingredients and frequent substitutions. The value here is the recipe roll-up: enter ingredients once, from USDA FoodData Central or your own supplier data, and every label derives from it, with the recipe scaler and food cost calculator alongside. See bakeries and meal kits.
Supplement brands
Supplement Facts is a different panel with different rules: dietary ingredients without a Daily Value, proprietary blends, the "Other ingredients" list and the iron warning. NFL renders the 21 CFR 101.36 panel and its variants (children, infants, pregnant and lactating, per-day and split formats). The supplement brands page covers what is and is not automated.
Co-packers and exporters
One recipe, several markets. The same nutrient data renders as a US Nutrition Facts panel, a bilingual Canadian table, an EU or UK declaration per 100 g, a Mexican table with warning seals, or any of the 152 formats across 114 countries. Exporters use the real-food pages to see how one food looks on four markets' panels before committing a design. See co-packers and exporters.
Nutritionists, consultants and schools
Consultants building labels for clients use the saved-recipe URLs to hand work over, and the claim validator and FDA label checklist to review a client's artwork. Food-science and culinary programmes use the free tier in class because it needs no account and shows the rounding as the regulation states it. See nutritionists and schools.
Where NFL is used
The regulation library covers 114 countries and regions, and the pages that get the most search traffic are the international ones: Gulf, Indian, Chinese, Central American and Codex citations that the large US tools do not cover. The interface is available in ten languages. If your market is not in the library, tell us; formats are added from the regulation text, not from a competitor's list.
Check our work first
Everything the tool does is visible before you sign up. Open any food page to see a label rendered from public USDA data through the same engine, with the source record named. Open any regulation page to see the primary document it was written from and the date it was last checked. Our editorial guidelines say how errors are reported and fixed.
