VS OPEN FOOD FACTS

Forkin vs Open Food Facts — gerçek farklar

Open Food Facts is the open database that makes most of this category possible — Forkin is built on top of it and contributes back. Forkin adds an app-first experience: AR meal scanning, recipes with reviews, meal planning, recall alerts, environmental scoring, voice cook mode, and on-device offline caching — backed by a sustainable EU company so the lights stay on.

Sahte yapmayacağımız şey

Open Food Facts daha güçlü olduğu yer

Kendinizi yalnızca kendi avantajlarınızla karşılaştırmak pazarlama stratejisidir, dürüstlük değil. İşte Open Food Facts'in bugün Forkin'den gerçekten daha iyi yaptığı şeyler — sizi varsayılan olarak bizi seçmeniz yerine doğru kararı vermenizi tercih ediyoruz.

  • Open data ethos: every product page, every field, the entire database is open under the Open Database License (ODbL) — anyone can audit, fork, or build on it.
  • Non-profit independence: French loi 1901 association, no investors to satisfy, no acquisition risk. The organization is structurally designed to outlast any single app.
  • Scientific contribution: the dataset powers peer-reviewed nutrition research, regulatory work (Nutri-Score), and 200+ third-party apps and websites including Forkin itself.
  • Free forever: there will never be a paywall on the underlying data.
