What it does
This free actor looks up food and grocery products by barcode (EAN-13 / UPC) using the open Open Food Facts database. For each barcode you get the product name, brand, quantity, categories, Nutri-Score, NOVA processing group, Eco-Score, ingredients, allergens and per-100g nutrition facts (énergie, matières grasses, sucres, sel, protéines). Ideal for enriching product catalogues, diet apps and food-data pipelines. You only pay your Apify platform usage — the actor itself is free.
