Data sources
One source is a start. Not an answer.
Barliva treats every data source as evidence to be reconciled — not gospel to be displayed. We fuse open data, manufacturer feeds and product metadata into a single canonical truth.
OpenFoodFacts
A valuable community database — used as one input, normalized and deduplicated rather than shown as-is.
Manufacturer data
Authoritative product information from the brands themselves, for accuracy public sources can't match.
Product metadata
Labels, categories, packaging and structured attributes that add context to every entity.
| Aspect | Raw open data | Barliva |
|---|---|---|
| Duplicates | Many | Resolved |
| Languages | As entered | Unified graph |
| Additives | E-numbers | Explained |
| Trust | Community | + Manufacturer |
| Freshness | Static | Continuous |
Beyond a single source
We don't replace open data. We elevate it.
Open data is foundational — and limited on its own. Barliva keeps its breadth while adding the structure, multilingual resolution and manufacturer accuracy it lacks.
