Cal AI

Cal AI, an AI-powered health and fitness app designed to simplify calorie tracking.

Key Points:

Purpose: Cal AI helps users track calories and nutrients to support fitness goals like weight loss, gain, or maintenance. It aims to make tracking easier by using AI to analyze meals without manual input or food scales.

Core Features:

Photo-Based Tracking: Users snap a photo of their meal, and the AI calculates calories, protein, carbs, and fats. It uses the phone?s depth sensor to estimate food volume and a model trained on thousands of images to identify meal components. Accuracy is claimed to be around 90%, though it struggles with complex dishes like smoothies or soups.

Personalized Plans: Users answer lifestyle questions to receive a tailored nutrition plan. The app tracks progress over weekly, monthly, or yearly intervals.

Barcode Scanning: Users can scan food barcodes for instant nutritional data.

Manual Correction: If the AI misidentifies items, users can edit the nutritional breakdown to improve accuracy.

Subscription-Based: Full analysis features require a paid subscription. No free trial is offered, which has drawn some criticism.
