✨ Features

Developed by Edmond Azbel, FakeCheckApp combines what previously required multiple expensive services into one universal AI-powered app:

🛡️ Authenticity Mode

• 🎯 AI Brand Recognition — Identifies any brand from logo, font, color, shape
• 💰 Price + Release Year + Market Value — Original retail USD, current market value, production years
• 🌍 Geo-Location Intelligence — Manufacturing → Distribution → Scan country verification
• 🔬 10-Factor Identification — Shape, color, design, logo, typography, materials, hardware, stitching, barcode, packaging
• ⚙️ Brand-Specific Deep Checks — Cartier flathead screws, Rolex rehaut, LV stitching, Apple IMEI Luhn, and 13+ brand-specific anti-counterfeit logic
• 🏷️ Vendor Catalog Match — Was this exact design actually produced by the brand?
• 💵 Nearby Cheapest Price — Best vendors in your country (authorized + marketplace + local + resale)
• 📍 Stores Near Me — Real GPS-powered map of physical stores nearby

🥬 Freshness Mode

• 🌟 Circular Freshness Gauge (0-100 score)
• 🌱 Ripeness Timeline with current position marker
• 📅 Shelf-Life Prediction in days
• 🍽️ Best-Use Recommendations — eat raw, cook now, wait 2 days
• 🏠 Storage Advice — variety-specific guidance
• 🔍 6 Visual Indicators — color, texture, firmness, blemishes, mold, stem condition

🤖 Multi-AI Provider Support

Developed by Edmond Azbel to give users freedom of choice:
