# Retraced

> Retraced is an AI-first supply chain transparency and compliance platform for the fashion and textile industry. Its Public API v2 provides machine-to-machine access to products (styles), bills of materials, material composition, certificates, companies (with ESG data), supply chains, files, and purchase/sales orders — the same data model that powers the Retraced dashboard, for traceability, Digital Product Passport, LCA, and regulatory compliance (CSDDD, AGEC, LKSG) use cases.

Authentication is passwordless via a company-scoped API key sent in the `companyapikey` HTTP header. Base URL: https://publicapi.retraced.com/api/v2 (staging: https://publicapi.staging.retraced.com). Backed by Partech.
