Tayib vs Yuka
Factual comparison, no bashing. Yuka and Tayib look alike at first: scan a barcode, get a score. But they answer different questions. Yuka rates a product's health impact. Tayib first answers 'is it halal, and why?', then adds a composition score. Here is what each one does, according to its own public pages.

Ideal user profile
Pick Tayib if
You want to know whether a product is halal for your school, understand why an ingredient raises a question, and see the texts behind the rule.
Go with Yuka if
Your question is health first: nutrition, additives, organic — including cosmetics, which Yuka also analyses.
Which one for you?
They are not direct rivals. Yuka is a health tool; it does not tell you whether a product is halal. Tayib answers that question first, with its sources, then gives a composition score. Nothing stops you from keeping both.
