Product verification in a messaging system

Abstract:

The subject technology receives image data including a representation of a physical item. The subject technology analyzes the image data to recognize an object corresponding to an identification indicator of the physical item. The subject technology determines whether the identification indicator of the physical item includes a representation of a barcode. The subject technology extracts verification metadata from the representation of the barcode. The subject technology sends the verification metadata to determine verification information associated with the verification metadata. The subject technology receives the verification information. The subject technology sends the verification information and the verification metadata to determine provenance information associated with the physical item. The subject technology receives, from the second server, the provenance information associated with the physical item. Further, the subject technology causes display, at a client device, of a media overlay including the physical item based at least in part on the provenance information.
