HOW BASEDBITE WORKS

Good food guidance should show its receipts.

BasedBite turns public places and published sources into a clearer starting point for your next meal. We keep the evidence visible so a useful label never has to sound more certain than it is.

01

Start with public places

We map Copenhagen food establishments from public food-safety and map data.

02

Find useful sources

We look for official websites and menus, then keep the source and its date visible.

03

Check before labeling

A dietary label needs strong evidence, such as a venue confirmation or a clear published menu.

04

Keep it current

Changes, expiry dates, and corrections help a useful label stay useful.

What each trust label means

  • Verified by venue. The venue has directly confirmed the relevant food or practice.
  • Menu evidence. A current published menu or ingredient source supports the label.
  • Public record. The place is useful to discover, but its public record is not dietary proof.
  • Needs review. Something is incomplete or uncertain, so we show the gap instead of filling it in.
  • Last checked recently. The source date is visible so you can judge how current it is.
The short answer

Can I trust the vegan labels?

Use them as evidence-backed guidance, not a guarantee. BasedBite only qualifies high-confidence, current evidence for the dietary filters. Open the place details to see the source and date, and check with the venue when allergies or cross-contact matter.

Keep the map useful

How venues can correct information

Venues and visitors can send feedback from a place detail page. A current menu, a direct confirmation, or a note about a change gives the review team something concrete to check.

Why not every place is labeled

Some places are unverified on purpose.

Public food records tell us that a place exists and may serve food. They do not tell us whether every dish, broth, sauce, or preparation is vegan. Keeping that distinction visible protects both diners and venues from an accidental promise.
