In order to determine the nutritional quality of a product with the Nutri-Score, to analyze its degree of processing with NOVA, or to determine if it suitable for vegans or vegetarians, we need to:

  • categorize the product
  • extract its list of ingredients (it can often be done very easily by selecting and cropping the ingredient list in product photos and automatically extracting the text from the photo)
  • add the values from the nutrition facts table
NutriScore nutrition grade B
3 - Processed foods

Filling in other information like the product name, the brand, the labels (e.g. organic and fair trade), the origins of ingredients, the type of packaging etc. also enables even more features and comparisons.
