  Live DNS and HTTPS probes of foodvisor.io hosts plus the Foodvisor landing SPA's own
  Vue Router table and i18n string bundle, cross-checked against Internet Archive CDX
  records for www.foodvisor.io/en/vision/ and vision.foodvisor.io. Probed 2026-09-10.
summary: >-
  The Foodvisor Vision API — the company's public developer product, announced in October
  2023 — has been RETIRED from Foodvisor's public surface. Its product page (
  https://www.foodvisor.io/en/vision/ ) now returns HTTP 404, its documentation host (
  vision.foodvisor.io ) no longer resolves in DNS, and the current marketing SPA contains
  no route and no translated string mentioning the API, Vision, developers, docs, business
  or enterprise. Foodvisor continues to operate as a consumer nutrition app. No sunset
  notice, deprecation policy, migration guide or replacement endpoint was published anywhere
  API Evangelist could find; the surface was withdrawn silently.
versioning:
  scheme: unknown
  note: >-
    No public versioning policy was ever reachable. The former docs host was a
    JavaScript-rendered SPA whose archived snapshots contain only an empty shell, so no
    version scheme can be honestly asserted.
deprecation_policy:
  published: false
  sunset_header: unknown
  deprecation_header: unknown
  note: >-
    RFC 8594 Sunset/Deprecation header support cannot be observed: there is no reachable
    API endpoint left to probe anonymously. No written deprecation or sunset policy is
    published on foodvisor.io.

status_page:

  note: >-
    No status.foodvisor.io, no statuspage.io/instatus/betteruptime tenant and no status
    link on the live site. No StatusPage pointer is wired into apis.yml.

        note: >-
          The live Vue Router table declares 23 routes (/:locale/premium/, /:locale/guides/,
          /:locale/press/, /:locale/login/, /:locale/signup/, /:locale/privacy-policy/,
          /:locale/terms-of-service/ and others). There is no /vision/, /api/ or /developers/
          route, which is why the server answers a hard 404 rather than a soft SPA shell.

          and /platform/quickstart/ (200, 20240707203340). All three archived bodies are
          1,659-byte JavaScript shells containing the single string "Foodvisor Vision", so
          even the archive holds no readable reference. Nothing was recoverable and nothing
          was reconstructed.

note: >-
  NO CONTRACT WAS DERIVED OR RECONSTRUCTED. This file records only what was probed. The
  Vision API's endpoint, authentication and payload shape were never published to a public
  URL that survives, and API Evangelist has not inferred them from the archive, from the
  mobile app, or from third-party wrappers.
