# Koia Koia Pumpkin Spice Protein Shake — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Claims checked

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Conflict detected — review pending (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Claims free of: dairy free, soy free”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Public sources conflict about this product's Allergen-Free claim. This is based on https://drinkkoia.com/pages/faqs. The claim should not be relied upon without further review. Specifically, 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim, and independent evidence names this exact product. Note: the ingredient list includes tree nut, almond, which may warrant further verification for a Allergen-Free claim. Note: the product page's text mentions peanut, pecan (not found in a structured ingredient list), which may warrant further verification for a Allergen-Free claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-19
- **Limitation:** This is a claim about specific allergens (dairy-free, soy-free), not a blanket allergen-free claim — it says nothing about allergens it does not name.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 8 checks.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 6/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Monk Fruit Extract, Locust Bean Gum, Gellan Gum and Organic Stevia Extract (Reb A). Contains: Tree Nuts (Almonds”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim with limited public support. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s 'organic' labeling category (requires at least 95% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-23
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 7/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Protein Shakes vegan? Yes. Koia Protein Shakes are 100% vegan and made with plant-based ingredients. What fiber”
- **Safe citation wording:** Public evidence includes a product-page vegan claim and a brand FAQ stating all products are 100% vegan, though neither specifically names the Pumpkin Spice Protein Shake; no Vegan Action certification match was found and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved. The ingredient statement lists lecithin, natural flavor, and sugar, which may warrant further verification for a vegan claim. This reflects only what the retrieved public evidence shows and is not a statement that the product is third-party certified.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-17
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 7/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “FIND A STORE Search Log in Cart NON GMO LIMITED EDITION protein Pumpkin Spice protein nutrition”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO claim with limited public support. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Separately, the ingredient list includes banana, peanut, pea, rice, pumpkin — the Non-GMO Project's own Monitored-Risk list (a real but lower signal than its High-Risk list, per the Project's own standard), included here for shoppers who want it, not as a contradiction of this claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. Non-GMO is accurate for this product, but none of its listed ingredients (e.g. corn, soy, canola, sugar beet, alfalfa, papaya, eggplant, pineapple, zucchini, potato, or animal-derived inputs such as meat, dairy, or egg) are among the crop types or inputs with a commercially available genetically modified/GMO-fed counterpart (TilliT uses the US list, which approves more such crops than most markets) — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-22
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
