The Mission

Make calorie tracking effortless. No more searching through food lists or guessing portion sizes. Just snap a photo, and AI does the rest—identifying food and pulling accurate nutrition data.

The Story

Like many people, I tried calorie tracking apps but hated the manual input. Searching food lists, guessing portion sizes—it felt like homework. Photo recognition apps existed, but accuracy was disappointing.

So I built CalorieAI. A simple idea: combine AI image recognition with a verified nutrition database. Snap a photo → AI identifies the food → pull real nutrition data from FatSecret's 2M+ foods.

This is a one-person project. I handle everything: development, design, customer support. The goal isn't to be the biggest calorie app—it's to be the simplest one that actually works.

If you're tired of tedious calorie logging, give it a try. Free scans available daily, no signup required.
