Open Food Facts is a Wikipedia for food products: a free, open and collaborative database of more than 750,000 food products from around the world. 1 million active users every month use our mobile apps or web site to make better food choices for their health and the environment. Our database is published as open data and is reused by more than 100 other applications and researchers.
Core Challenge
We need help to improve the Open Food Facts mobile applications for iOS and Android that are used to both collect data about products and help people make better food choices for their health and for the planet.
Our products database is rapidly expanding, and we have an increasing data gap: we have hundreds of thousands of products with photos of ingredients, nutrition facts etc. but this data has not been extracted. We are building models to extract it automatically through machine learning and computer vision algorithms.
