Peptide Vendor Transparency Scanner

Purity isn't proof.

Know what's really in the vial.

Most peptide COAs test one thing — purity. Verifyd scans a vendor's site and certificates and grades how much they truly disclose: heavy metals, endotoxins, sterility, and the safety panels most vendors quietly skip.

Check a COA or scan a vendor — use whichever you've got.

iWe scan research-use-only peptide vendors & their COAs — not clinics, prescriptions, treatments, or supplements.
Verifyd grades transparency, not product quality — what a vendor discloses and how verifiable it is. We don't endorse the human use of research chemicals.

Our benchmark Every scan compares a vendor's published COA against one standard — the full panel of tests we believe should be the industry standard for injectable-grade research peptides — then shows exactly where they meet it and where they fall short.

The standard

What a complete COA should show.

Most certificates stop at purity. This is the full panel Verifyd grades against — the disclosures a genuinely transparent, injectable-grade vendor puts on the table.

Not sure what all these tests are? Here’s what the key ones check for — and why they matter for injectable-grade material.

  • Mass-spec identity
    Confirms the material really is the compound on the label — not just something that's pure.
  • Net peptide content
    How much of the powder is actual peptide, versus water and salts.
  • Heavy metals
    Screens for toxic trace metals like lead and arsenic left over from manufacturing.
  • Bacterial endotoxins
    Bacterial residue a purity test can't catch — a key safety check for injectable-grade material.
  • Sterility
    Confirms the material is free of living microbes.
  • Residual solvents
    Leftover manufacturing chemicals that are supposed to be removed.
  • Related impurities
    Near-identical peptide by-products created during synthesis.

Two ways in

Scan a vendor — or check a single COA.

Two ways to use Verifyd, depending on what you've got in hand. One grades a whole vendor; the other reads a single certificate — including whether it's even real.

Scan a vendor

You have a vendor's website.

Paste a peptide vendor's URL and we scan their site and published COAs, then grade how transparent they are across all five pillars — a full Vendor Transparency Score out of 100.

  • A full 5-pillar grade: Failed, Partial, or Gold Standard
  • Covers lab & COA quality, accreditations, claims, business & commerce
  • Best when you're deciding whether to trust a vendor
Scan a vendor →
Check a COA

Someone sent you a COA.

Upload the certificate itself and we'll read it: which tests it discloses, which it skips, and which lab issued it — plus the big one: whether it's a real, verifiable document or a copy-paste job.

  • What the certificate does & doesn't cover
  • Lab, accreditation & independent-verification check
  • Best when a COA lands in your DMs and you're not sure it's legit

The transparency gap

Most research-use-only peptide COAs show one test: purity. Injectable-grade safety needs more.

Consumers see the word "COA" and assume "safe." But most certificates only show HPLC purity — while the panels that actually matter for injectable-grade material go untested and undisclosed.

About us

A neutral transparency check for the peptide space.

Verifyd Index scans research-use-only peptide vendors and grades one thing: what they disclose about their testing, and how independently verifiable it is. We come from inside this industry — which is exactly why we know how much a single “99% purity” number can hide.

We don't sell peptides, and a grade is never for sale. The whole point is a standard that can't be bought — applied the same way to every vendor, so consumers finally have something they can trust.

◆

Neutral & un-buyable

The grade can't be paid for. The same rubric applies to every vendor.

✓

Transparency, not safety

We grade what's disclosed and verifiable — never product quality or safety.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is Verifyd Index?+
A free tool that scans research-use-only peptide vendors and grades how transparent they are about their testing — what their certificates of analysis actually disclose, and how independently verifiable it is.
Do you sell peptides?+
No. We don't sell any product. Verifyd is a neutral transparency scanner — our only job is to make it easy to see what a vendor is, and isn't, willing to show you.
What does “transparency, not safety” mean?+
We grade what a vendor discloses and how verifiable it is — not whether a product is safe, effective, or of good quality. A low score means little was published or checkable, not that a product is unsafe.
Can a vendor pay for a better grade?+
Never. The grade is not for sale. A payment can cover a scan or a badge display license, but it can never change the outcome — and the score is identical regardless of which accredited lab did the testing.
How is the score calculated?+
Each vendor is scored 0–100 against one published standard, across five pillars: lab & COA quality, regulatory/claims compliance, accreditations, business legitimacy, and site & commerce signals.
What do the grades mean?+
Failed (0–49): little publicly disclosed or verifiable. Partial Transparency (50–84): discloses meaningfully, with real gaps. Verifyd Gold Standard (85–100): full-panel, accredited, and verifiable.
What does “research use only” mean?+
These materials are sold for laboratory research, not for human use. Verifyd provides transparency analysis for that context and does not endorse or facilitate the human use of research chemicals.
Can a vendor correct or dispute a scan?+
Yes. A vendor can claim its scorecard and submit a newer or fuller COA for a re-scan at any time. Every result is a point-in-time snapshot as of the report date.
