Could you build this?
Partial The UI and barcode scanning are simple, but reliably resolving product barcodes to accurate nutritional facts requires integration with comprehensive proprietary or licensed food databases (like Open Food Facts or GS1).
What it would actually take: The app needs a barcode reader integrated with a robust food database API (e.g., Open Food Facts or Nutritionix) and an ingestion pipeline to normalize ingredient and macro data. An algorithmic scoring model evaluates nutritional trade-offs (Nutri-Score style or custom rules) before returning the score to a React Native or Flutter mobile client.
