## Description
Origin β Food Barcode Scanner & Product Origin
Scan food barcodes and discover where products come from.
Origin is a food barcode scanner and product origin checker that helps you investigate the origin of food products, ingredients, brands and manufacturers.
Scan an EAN, UPC or GTIN barcode and explore available information about the product: brand, declared manufacturing locations, ingredient origins, parent company, company country and more.
Unlike a simple barcode scanner, Origin combines multiple public data sources and shows you where each piece of information comes from.
π SCAN FOOD BARCODES
Scan the barcode of a food product and quickly check its available information.
Origin supports:
β’ EAN
β’ UPC
β’ GTIN
You can also enter a barcode manually.
Perfect for checking products while shopping at the supermarket or investigating food you already have at home.
π DISCOVER WHERE PRODUCTS COME FROM
Where was this product made? Where do its ingredients come from? Which company owns the brand?
Depending on the available data, Origin can show:
β’ Brand and product information
β’ Declared manufacturing locations
β’ Ingredient origins
β’ Parent company and company country
β’ Countries where the product is sold
β’ GS1 barcode information
β’ Data sources and confidence levels
Not every product has complete information, so Origin clearly shows what is known and what is missing.
π PRODUCT TRACEABILITY SCORE
Every scanned product receives a Traceability Score based on the amount of available information and how consistently different sources agree.
A higher score means more traceability information is available.
The score is not a certification of product origin. It helps you understand how well documented a product appears to be.
π MULTIPLE DATA SOURCES
Origin does not depend on a single food database.
It combines information from sources such as:
β’ Open Food Facts β products, ingredients and declared manufacturing information
β’ Wikidata β brands, companies, ownership and associated countries
Each source is displayed separately so you can check where the information comes from.
β οΈ WHEN SOURCES DISAGREE
Product databases are not always consistent.
If different sources provide conflicting information, Origin highlights the contradiction instead of silently choosing one answer.
You see the available evidence and decide what it means.
π·οΈ EAN, UPC & GTIN BARCODE INFORMATION
A barcode prefix does not necessarily reveal where a product was manufactured.
EAN and GTIN prefixes identify the GS1 organization responsible for issuing the barcode range.
Origin keeps GS1 barcode information separate from manufacturing and ingredient-origin data to avoid misleading conclusions.
π YOUR FOOD SCANNER WHILE SHOPPING
Use Origin to investigate:
β’ Food origin
β’ Product origin
β’ Ingredient origins
β’ Brand ownership
β’ Manufacturing information
β’ Barcode information
β’ Product traceability
Simply scan a barcode and explore the available data.
π PRIVACY FIRST
β’ No account required
β’ No advertising
β’ No behavioral tracking
β’ No third-party analytics
β’ No permanent scan history
β’ No unnecessary personal data collection
On Android, Origin uses Google Code Scanner for fast barcode recognition without requiring the app itself to request camera permission.
π ENGLISH & SPANISH
Origin is available in English and Spanish and can investigate food products from around the world when information is available from its data sources.
Scan a barcode. Discover the product. Check the source. Understand its origin.
