Common questions
How accurate is this compared to a human packaging consultant?
Every recommendation is grounded in a cited source from our research library, not generated freehand - so you can verify the reasoning the same way you'd check a consultant's citations. We recommend using the report as a strong starting brief for your supplier conversation, not a final unreviewed decision.
What if neither of the two proposals is right for us?
You can adjust your goals and constraints and regenerate - most teams use the two proposals as a starting comparison, then refine from there rather than treating either as final.
How do tokens work, and can I stop after the free scan?
Yes. The free scan needs a free account (no card) so your usage and tokens can be tracked - no payment is required. The full report costs 25 tokens (€24.99) and production-ready output costs 50 tokens (€49.99) - 1 token = €1. You choose which stage to unlock, and can stop after the free scan with nothing spent.
Is our product and packaging data kept confidential?
Yes. Your product details and current packaging are used only to generate your report and are not shared with other customers or used to identify your brand publicly.
Does it work for our specific material or category?
PackageIQ covers bottles, pouches, boxes, jars, tubes and cartons across FMCG, cosmetics, food & beverage and home care. If your category falls outside these, get in touch before you start - we'll tell you directly whether it's a fit.
How does PackageIQ flag compliance risk?
Each report is checked against current EU Packaging Regulation requirements and flags where your packaging or materials may need to change - with the specific regulation cited, so your compliance team can verify it independently.
