Comment: Please remove all LLM-generated text; ideally you should start over by removing all text from the draft (without removing any review templates). We do not necessarily expect you to write perfect or polished English. If you need general advice or formatting help, see Help:Your first article and Help:Referencing for beginners. Note that merely rewording the existing LLM-generated text is unlikely to resolve the problem of LLM usage. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 04:03, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
GoCoCo is a mobile app that scans barcodes on packaged food and gives each product a score from 1 to 10. It is made by COCO POSITIVO, S.L., a company based in Barcelona, and is known as elCoCo in Spain.[1][2]
History
[edit]The app was made by Jean-Baptiste Boubault and Bertrand Amaraggi.[3] It was released in Spain in 2019 as El CoCo, short for Consumidor Consciente, and was free. Users could add products that were missing from its database, and early versions showed the Nutri-Score label and the NOVA classification.[4][5]
The company later renamed the app GoCoCo outside Spain and aimed it at people with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes.[1] FoodNavigator wrote in 2025 that the score combines the World Health Organization nutrient profile model with the NOVA classification, which ranks food by how processed it is, and that the app does not rate additives, unlike the scanner app Yuka.[1] It also points users to better-rated products in the same category, and lets them photograph a meal to get advice on changing it.[1]
Reception
[edit]Spanish technology and nutrition sites covered the launch in 2019 and described the app as a free way to read food labels.[4][5][6] The dietitian Juan Revenga presented it in Sport Life as a way to tell whether a product is an ultra-processed food.[7]
The business site Merca2 wrote in November 2019 that the app had struggled to buy product data, because the companies that sell it work mainly for the brands being rated.[8]
FoodNavigator reported in 2025 that the app had more than 800,000 users in Spain and about a million worldwide. The company supplied those figures, and says its revenue comes from users rather than from food manufacturers.[1]
