Hey, just spotted ClosetArchive. I'm the co-founder of Open Food Facts, and we have a project for non-food items called Open Products Facts.
Among other things, we'd like to collect product data about all clothing in the world, and it's going to be complicated since people typically discard labels with barcodes after they buy the item.
Nethertheless, extensive product data would allow for cool experiences (like washing and care instruction, facilitated repairs, giving and resale…)
Since we have a READ/WRITE REST API, I was wondering if you would consider an integration with Open Products Facts for clothes with barcode.
You could send new items with barcodes as they are added to the app (and we want to try to create a barcode-less API this year to allow adding/fetching products based on a combination of color/brand/category/size…)
You could fetch data on products with barcodes already in Open Products Facts, with the idea that it's going to get better and improve the user experience over time
We will have auto-completion and taxonomies for brands/categories/labels/… much like we do in Open Food Facts and Open Beauty Facts.

Thank you for your interest in the app. However, this could potentially impact the privacy of users and their products being sent to the server. The app is open-source (MIT License), so you can create a new fork if you prefer. Also, I am currently available for work if you need someone to hire 😅.
On a somewhat related note, the French agency for the environment is going to introduce an environmental score for textile, and the good news is that you can do the computation client side without any call to OPF, since the score formula will be open (and yes, it requires an awful amount of data about the products 🫠)

hi ! just wanted to chip in, it could be an opt-in feature :) you put in your openfoodfacts credentials, and decide if you want to contribute to the open database. in return, for each product, you would be able to know if it is present in the open database, and start retrieving additional data (like the environmental score when it will be available :)
