A label is right until the day it is not.
Every label you sell, read against the rules that actually bind it — and read again whenever you send it back to us, because a formula moved, a product changed, or a rule did. However many you have.
All Regulatory Support subscriptionsLabels are not what gets you inspected. They are what gets you recalled.
A label problem rarely surfaces as an inspection finding. What happens instead is quieter and more expensive: a retailer pulls a line, a marketplace delists a product, or an undeclared allergen sends a batch back — and every one of those starts with a label that was correct when it was approved.
The reason it stops being correct is rarely carelessness. A formula moves and the artwork does not. A supplier changes a carrier and the ingredient statement is now wrong by one word. Or the rule underneath a claim gets rewritten, with a compliance date years out, and the notice went to a mailing list nobody at your company is on.
Label & Claim Review
Your whole label portfolio read properly, then kept read — as rules move, formulas change, and new products ship.
- Every label you send us — food, supplements, cosmetics, over-the-counter drugs
- The statement of identity and net quantity — the parts nobody checks twice
- Ingredient and allergen declarations — against the formula and specification you give us
- The nutrition or supplement facts panel — format, rounding, and what belongs on it
- Claims — what they turn your product into, and whether you can carry it
- Warnings and required statements — federal, and our reading of which state requirements survive preemption
- New products and reformulations — send them before they ship and they get read before they ship
- Rule changes — when we see one that reaches labels, we read it against your portfolio and tell you what we find
A read of each label with what is wrong, what is arguable, and what is fine — and for anything wrong, the rule it fails against so you can hand it to whoever has to fix the artwork. Where a claim is the problem, you get told what would have to exist for you to keep it, rather than just being told to drop it.
Because a label is never finished. This work is normally sold per label, and charged again every time something changes — which makes the sensible commercial decision always to put off the recheck, and the recheck is the one that catches the problem. This does not work that way. Send them when they change. Send the new ones. The number does not move.
Three labels that were approved by somebody sensible.
Constructed examples. The companies are invented; the failure modes are ones that put real products off shelves.
The formula changed and the artwork did not.
A claim that quietly changed what the product is.
Compliant federally, and unsellable in one state.
Tap the band that matches you. It sets how many we establish at the start — a smaller band costs less and takes longer to work through.
Setup is every label you currently sell, read once, so the rest is upkeep rather than discovery. Expect it to find things — that is what a portfolio read is for.

Straight answers.
We only have eight products. Is this worth it?
Probably not. At that size you are better off buying individual label reviews as a service and paying for them when you need them. This starts making sense when the recheck is the thing you keep putting off — which is usually somewhere past twenty products.
Do you design the artwork?
No. We tell you what is wrong and against which rule, in terms your designer or printer can act on. Producing the artwork stays with whoever does that for you.
How do you know when a rule changes?
We do not sit watching for rule changes. It is not a monitoring service and we do not guarantee we will catch every change. What we do is read what we see against your portfolio and tell you what it touches, rather than forwarding you a newsletter about a rule and leaving you to work out whether it is yours.
What if we send fifty at once after a rebrand?
Then it takes longer than five. The fee does not change. What we will not do is promise a rebrand comes back as fast as a single label.
Does this cover our marketing website and Amazon copy?
Claims on the label, yes. Claims everywhere else are a different and much larger surface — send them and we will tell you what we see, but a full marketing review is a separate piece of work and is quoted.
Is this legal advice?
No. It is regulatory work product. It does not guarantee what an agency, a retailer, a marketplace or a competitor decides, and where something looks to us like a question for a lawyer, we say so.
Labels rarely travel alone.
Regulatory work product, not legal advice. Label & Claim Review reads the labels and claims you submit against the requirements that apply to them. It is not legal counsel, not a certification decision, not a guarantee of any agency, retailer or marketplace decision, and not artwork production. We do not monitor your marketing, your listings or your production, and no deadline is accepted unless we confirm it in writing; sending us a label does not transfer responsibility for it. What this subscription covers is set out above. Work outside it — producing artwork, a full marketing or listings review, or a formal response to an agency or a retailer — is named as such and quoted before anything starts, and never begun without your agreement. Every review states what it rested on and on what date, and holds only while the formula, the artwork and the rules behind it remain as they were. Reviews rest on what you provide — including the formula and specification you tell us the product is made to — and none of it is independently verified. You remain responsible for your own compliance, decisions, approvals and submissions. Companies and situations shown as examples are constructed; no real company is depicted. Billed monthly in advance and renews until canceled, with no refund for an unused month, and setup is charged once at signup, under our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
