About

A dated memory for supplement labels.

FormulaSignal is an independent supplement record that keeps a dated history of what U.S. supplement labels declare, and tells people when a product they use changes.

What FormulaSignal does

The Locker

A free place to keep the supplements you take, with the dated label for each covered product. When you buy again, you can see whether the formula moved.

Build your Locker

Monitoring

Scheduled checks on up to 10 covered products, with an email when a change is confirmed. Each month ends with a receipt of every valid, partial and failed check.

Product records and Signals

A public record for every covered product: its current label, price per serving and history, where they are on file. Signals are the confirmed changes, each with both dated sources.

Browse the records

Ask

Plain questions answered from stored records, such as how much caffeine a product declares or whether it changed. Every answer names its dated source.

Ask the Record

The Category Ledger, for brands

A monthly ledger of the U.S. pre-workout category with verified change alerts, for brand teams. The pilot is $149 a month and limited to five companies.

For brands

API and MCP, for developers

The same Record over REST and a remote MCP server, so software and AI agents can cite dated supplement facts. The free tier allows 30 requests a minute.

What makes FormulaSignal different

Every number carries a date and a source.

A product page shows what it says today and nothing else. FormulaSignal keeps 398 dated product states going back to 2017, and each figure names the source it came from.

A change is confirmed before it is published.

A changed web page is only a lead. A confirmed change needs two comparable dated sources and a review, which is why the Record holds 3 confirmed changes rather than a feed of every edit.

Each record is tied to one formula.

Supplement reviews often describe a formula the brand no longer sells. Each FormulaSignal record names the dated label it refers to, so an old formula and a new one never blur together.

No paid placement and no affiliate links.

Revenue comes from subscriptions. A brand that pays gets no better treatment and no earlier notice, and FormulaSignal accepts no free product for coverage.

Failures stay visible.

A check that could not read a source is never counted as “no change”. The monitoring receipt lists failed and partial checks beside the valid ones.

Who FormulaSignal is for

  • People who take pre-workouts, electrolyte and hydration products, creatine products, and protein powders and want to know when a formula changes.
  • People comparing products before they buy the same one again.
  • Supplement brand teams tracking the U.S. pre-workout category.
  • Developers and AI agents that need cited, dated supplement facts.
  • Creators who review supplements and want to know when a product they covered changes.

The team behind FormulaSignal

FormulaSignal is independent and founder-led, and it started in 2026. It is not affiliated with any brand it covers.

It exists because a supplement can keep its name while its formula changes, and a product page only ever shows today’s label. The Record keeps the ones before it.

How FormulaSignal works

Sources

Every product starts from the brand’s own page, preserved and hashed before it enters the Record. Label images are read twice and compared.

Checking

Monitored products are checked on a schedule, and watching a product roughly halves its interval. Monitoring is open today for pre-workouts.

Frequently asked questions

Is FormulaSignal free?

Yes. The Locker holds up to 24 products free, with no card. Monitoring is optional at $7 a month or $59 a year.

Does FormulaSignal lab-test supplements?

No. It records what a brand declares on its label and product page, with the date and the source. A label is not proof of what is in your container.

How do you know a formula changed?

A changed page is only a lead. A change is confirmed when two comparable dated sources show different declared values and the finding passes review.

Can a brand pay to change what you publish?

No. Paying brands get no better treatment, no earlier notice of a finding and no right to review it first. There are no affiliate links.

Is this medical advice?

No. FormulaSignal says what a product declared and when. It does not say whether a product is safe, effective or right for you.

Which supplements do you cover?

Coverage is U.S. pre-workouts, electrolyte and hydration products, creatine products, and protein powders, plus some adjacent products. Anything else can be requested free, with no promised date.

How do I report a mistake?

Email hello@formulasignal.com with the page and the source you are relying on. Corrections are published beside the finding they change.
