The reference we wish we had
If you've ever stood in a shop turning a package over and over, trying to work out whether some additive with a number for a name comes from an animal — this is for you. That quiet little frustration is exactly why Vegan Wiki exists. The internet is full of vegan blogs, but when you just need a straight answer fast, they send you down a rabbit hole of top-10 lists and affiliate links. We wanted the opposite.
So we built something calm and dependable: clear facts, checked against real sources, on pages we keep free of ads, sponsored placements and anything for sale. When something's genuinely complicated, we say so plainly and let you make the call. Your choices are yours — our job is simply to make them easier.
The dream is to become the Wikipedia of vegan living: a warm and trustworthy reference anyone can lean on, wherever you are and whatever brought you here. Lifelong vegan, curious beginner, cooking for someone you love, or just trying to shop a little more kindly — you're welcome here.
What you can count on
A few promises we make to you — and the way each one quietly shapes how we build and care for the wiki.
Honest and down to earth
We give you the facts and leave the lecture to someone else. Expect calm and respectful information, free of guilt trips and drama, plus room to decide what's right for you — how you live is your call.
Global Coverage
Most vegan resources are built for US or UK audiences. We actively prioritize availability data for Europe, the Balkans, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Oceania.
Transparency
Corporate ownership matters. We track who owns what — because a fully vegan brand owned by a company that conducts animal testing is a fact people deserve to know.
Community-Maintained
Keeping up with 5,000 brands takes more than one team of researchers. Our Submit system lets you flag formula changes, new certifications, and ownership updates in real time.
