The most comprehensive ingredient-to-regulation knowledge graph for cosmetics and food compliance. Search by INCI, CAS, EC number, E-number, or common name. Upload a formulation in any format and get every ingredient matched, classified, and checked in seconds.
Formulators, toxicologists, and regulatory affairs professionals all use different naming conventions. Inlet understands them all.
Search by International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients -- the global standard for cosmetic ingredient naming. Find 'Tocopheryl Acetate' even if your formulator calls it 'Vitamin E Acetate'.
Precise chemical identification via Chemical Abstracts Service registry numbers. Search '59-02-9' to find alpha-tocopherol and all its regulatory entries across every market.
European Inventory of Existing Commercial Chemical Substances numbers for EU regulatory cross-referencing. Linked directly to CosIng classifications.
For food additives, search by E-number (e.g., E300 for ascorbic acid) and instantly see approval status across EU, US, Canada, and ASEAN markets.
Regional and trade names mapped to canonical records. Search 'Vitamin C', 'L-Ascorbic Acid', or 'Ascorbinsaeure' and find the same master ingredient.
Powered by rapidfuzz token_sort_ratio, Inlet handles misspellings, abbreviations, and formatting variations. 'Sodim Lauryl Sulfat' correctly matches 'Sodium Lauryl Sulfate'.
When you upload a formulation, every ingredient name is scored against the master database. Three confidence tiers determine what happens next.
High-confidence fuzzy matches are automatically linked to the master record. No human intervention needed for common typos and minor spelling variations.
Multiple potential matches are surfaced as 'did you mean?' candidates. The user picks the correct one, and the selection improves future matching.
Unmatched ingredients are automatically created as draft records so the SKU wizard can proceed. Admins review and approve these drafts before they enter the master database.
Inlet's AI parser extracts ingredient lists from any document format. It identifies INCI names, concentrations, functional roles, and supplier details from product labels, formulation sheets, COAs, and even photos of packaging.
Every ingredient links to every regulation that governs it. See the complete regulatory picture for any substance, across every market.
EU Cosmetic Ingredient database integration. See functional classifications (emollient, surfactant, preservative), EU Annexes I-VI status, and restriction conditions.
Instantly see if an ingredient is banned, restricted, or permitted in each target market. Color-coded status indicators make it obvious at a glance.
Maximum allowed concentrations vary by market, product type, and application area. Inlet tracks every limit and flags violations during compliance checks.
Linked safety assessments, toxicological studies, and NOAEL data for risk assessment. Essential for Product Information File and Safety Report generation.
Track ingredients under regulatory review. Know when an ingredient is being evaluated for restriction, so you can reformulate proactively.
Every data point links back to its regulatory source: official gazette references, publication dates, and enforcement timelines for full audit traceability.
Upload your formulation or search any ingredient to see its complete regulatory profile across all supported markets.
