CLEAR TO COMPETE
Protect your roster.Secure your eligibility.Defend your revenue.
Clear to Compete checks any individual ingredient, from medications and peptides to herbals and single nutrients, against the current WADA and NCAA prohibited lists. Search a drug by its brand name in any country it is sold in and we resolve it to the compound underneath. One accidental positive should never cost an athlete a career, a ranking, or a contract.
One check, one clear answer.
Enter an ingredient and Clear to Compete returns a plain verdict, checked against both authorities. This is one result. Contact us for a full preview of everything the app can do, across drugs, peptides, herbals, single nutrients, and international drug brand names.

Anti-doping rules do not care about intent. A list that changed on January 1, an ingredient printed on a box nobody read, a bottle bought off a shelf and never checked. Each one is enough to cost titles, rankings, and millions in earnings.
She had taken meldonium legally, on a doctor's prescription, for roughly a decade. WADA added it to the prohibited list on January 1, 2016, and she tested positive at the Australian Open on January 26. Her agent testified that he had not checked the new list that year. The panel found the violation was not intentional, but she still bore fault for failing to confirm that a substance she had taken for years was still permitted.
At an altitude camp in Italy, her team doctor bought a cream at a local pharmacy to treat sunburn blisters on her lips. Clostebol acetate was printed on the packaging as an active ingredient, and the box carried a doping warning. The doctor read the ingredients and did not recognize clostebol as prohibited. She asked him directly whether it was on the list. He told her no.
He bought an over-the-counter supplement and took it without running the label past the team's medical staff. The NCAA applied its mandatory penalty. His appeal was denied, he sat out the rest of a season with Florida ranked in the top ten, and he transferred. Every ingredient on that label could have been checked in under a minute.
None of these three intended to use a banned substance. One missed a list change, one missed an ingredient printed on the box, one never checked the label at all. Every one of them was a single lookup away from a different outcome.
A verdict before a substance is ingested.
Five steps between a question and an answer you can defend.
Search one ingredient
Enter a drug, peptide, herbal, or single nutrient. Drugs can be entered by brand name in any country where they are sold.
Resolve the compound
Brand names and international spellings resolve to the compound underneath, so the same drug returns the same answer whether it was bought in Milan, Nairobi, or Cleveland.
Check both authorities
The compound is checked against the current WADA and NCAA prohibited lists, including the drug classes the NCAA bans without naming every example.
Get the verdict
Three possible answers for WADA, the NCAA, or both, each one specific enough to act on.
- BANNEDProhibited. There is no permitted version of this.
- NOT BANNEDPermitted under both lists as searched.
- CONDITIONALLY BANNEDThe answer depends on context: in competition only, above a threshold, by a particular route, or in a particular sport. You get the condition, not just a warning flag.
Protect the roster
Every athlete, trainer, and compliance officer works from the same answer, with medical-exemption guidance and a link to the right NCAA or WADA pathway when one exists. Additionally, it links directly to the NCAA and WADA banned substance lists.

The one thing no app can check.
Clear to Compete tells you whether an ingredient is banned. It cannot tell you whether the bottle actually contains what the label says. No app can.
There is no database of what is really inside a branded supplement, because the label is the only claim anyone has made about it, and the label is exactly what gets falsified. Sometimes that is sloppy manufacturing. Sometimes it is deliberate spiking.
Laboratory analysis of sports supplements has found products sold as plain branched-chain amino acids that contained undeclared methyltestosterone, and products sold as protein and amino blends that contained undeclared oxandrolone. Neither steroid appeared anywhere on the label.
Read the studyFDA's own review of adverse event reports identified 35 cases of men aged 20 to 48 hospitalized with serious liver injury linked to body-building products labeled or suspected to contain steroids. The agency lists those products by name, among them Trimethyl Extreme, with reports in both 2012 and 2015.
Read the FDA analysisAn athlete could look up every ingredient printed on one of those bottles, get a clean verdict on every single one, and still fail a test. FDA has said the same thing in plainer terms: many products sold as dietary supplements actually contain anabolic steroids or steroid-like substances related to testosterone.
There is only one defense against this, and it is not software. Use supplements that are tested batch by batch by an independent third party. If a product does not carry that certification, no lookup, ours or anyone else's, can vouch for what is inside it.
FDA: bodybuilding products can be riskySupplements you can actually verify.
A verdict on an ingredient is only as good as the bottle it came from. Avoid the problem of contaminated supplements by using only NSF Certified for Sport products. Every batch is tested against the label claims and screened for nearly 300 substances banned by major athletic organizations.
