The Caffeine Pouch Disclosure Index

A standing audit of one question: does the brand tell you how much of each ingredient is in the pouch? Thirteen brands, graded on published dose alone. Updated monthly, with a changelog so you can see who changed their mind.

Who wrote this

We are not an independent review site. This site is owned and paid for by Neurix Labs LLC, which makes STRYVE caffeine pouches. We compete with most of the brands we write about. Everything here is either a number from a brand's own website, a published source we link, or something we say plainly that we don't know. Find something wrong and tell us — we'll fix it and say what changed.

Why this exists

A supplement you can't measure is a supplement you can't judge

Caffeine pouches are sold as dietary supplements. That means a brand is free to name an ingredient without ever telling you how much of it is in the product — and a lot of them do exactly that.

The practical effect is simple. If a pouch advertises L-theanine, Alpha-GPC and lion's mane but publishes no doses, the formula can legally contain a meaningful amount of the cheapest one and a sprinkle of the rest. You cannot tell from the label. You cannot compare two products. You cannot work out whether you're paying a fair price, because you don't know what you're buying.

This page grades on one thing only: did the brand publish a number? Not whether the formula is good. Not whether it tastes nice. Whether the milligrams are printed where a customer can find them. It's the lowest bar in the category, and most of the category doesn't clear it.

The grades

How we score

  1. Full. Every active ingredient carries a published dose on the brand's own site. Vitamins included.
  2. Partial. The primary actives are dosed, but vitamins or minor ingredients are listed without amounts.
  3. Blend. Actives are named inside a proprietary blend with no individual doses. You know the total, not the split.
  4. None. No dose published for the primary active. You don't know how much stimulant is in the pouch.
One rule that matters

Where a dose exists on Amazon, a reseller, or a third-party review but not on the brand's own website, we record it as not published. A number a company won't print itself is a number it isn't standing behind. Resellers get specs wrong constantly, and a brand can't be held to a figure it never wrote.

Version 1.0 notes

Four things worth saying out loud

01

Ultra publishes doses on its Sleep pouch and none on its stimulant pouches. Melatonin 1 mg, L-theanine 50 mg, magnesium gluconate 30 mg, chamomile 10 mg, passionflower 10 mg, lemon balm 12 mg — all six, printed. So this isn't a formatting limitation or an oversight. The company knows how to publish a dose. It publishes them where the number reassures, and omits them where the number would let you compare.

02

Only one brand in thirteen publishes a real Supplement Facts panel as text. Roon. Everyone else uses a marketing graphic, a flat image you can't select or search, or nothing. An image of a facts panel is better than no panel, but it can't be read by a screen reader, translated, or checked against a search.

03

Nectr contradicts itself, and the product page is the honest one. Its Focus+ collection page describes a "320 mg nootropic blend," which reads like a proprietary blend. The individual product pages disclose every dose and explicitly say "no proprietary blends." We graded on the product page. Worth fixing, though — the collection page undersells them.

04

Wip's caffeine figure is genuinely unresolvable. The site offers a 100/200 mg "strength" dropdown and never states whether that's per pouch or per can. Third-party listings imply per pouch. That's a five-word fix on their end and a real difference to the customer — 200 mg in a pouch is about two cups of coffee.

Changelog

What's changed since last time

This is version 1.0, so there's nothing to report yet. From the next update onward, this section will list every brand that started publishing a dose, stopped publishing one, changed a formula, or changed a price — with the date. If a brand improves its disclosure, that will be recorded here just as plainly as the failures.

If you're a brand on this list

If we've graded you wrong, or you've published doses since we audited, send us the link. We'll re-check, update the table, and note the change in this changelog with the date. We'd rather the whole category published its numbers than have a good story about the ones that don't.

Our own product

Where STRYVE sits, on the same terms

We make STRYVE, so we're not going to grade ourselves and present it as a finding. Here are the numbers, and you can apply the same rules we applied to everyone else.

STRYVE Energy — 100 mg caffeine, 50 mg L-theanine, 50 mg taurine, per pouch. 15 pouches per can, 0.6 g each. Sweetened with xylitol, mannitol, sucralose, acesulfame potassium and neotame. Made in the USA. That is every active, dosed, which is a "Full" by the rules above — but we're not shipping until this autumn, so we haven't put ourselves in the table. When the product is on sale, it goes in, graded by the same criteria, and stays there whether the grade flatters us or not.

Questions

The things people ask

Why grade on disclosure instead of quality?

Because disclosure is objective and quality isn't. We can check whether a number is printed on a website. We can't check whether a pouch works better than another one without a clinical trial we haven't run. Grading what we can actually verify is the only version of this page that's worth anything.

Is a proprietary blend illegal?

No. Under US supplement labelling rules a brand can list the ingredients in a blend and give only the blend's total weight, without breaking out the individual amounts. It's entirely legal and reasonably common. It just means you can't tell how much of each thing you're getting, which is why we grade it down.

Why does an image of a Supplement Facts panel score lower than text?

Because you can't search it, select it, translate it, or have it read aloud, and it often doesn't survive being viewed on a phone. It also can't be checked against the site's own claims automatically. It's better than nothing, and we say so in the table — it's just not as good as text.

How often is this updated?

Monthly. Every version is dated and the changelog records what moved. If a brand reformulates or starts publishing doses between updates and sends us the link, we'll update sooner and note it.

You sell pouches. Why should I believe this?

You shouldn't take our word for it — that's the point of grading on published numbers. Every figure in the table is on a brand's own website and takes a few minutes to check. We've kept our own product out of the graded table and told you what's in it anyway. If we get something wrong, tell us and we'll correct it in public with a dated note.
