The problem it solves

Logging every meal in a calorie-tracking app means searching for the exact food item every time, which gets old fast and makes people quit. Without an easy way to see your trend over time, it's hard to tell if what you're doing is actually working.

Who it fits

Individuals or coaches tracking calories and weight for themselves or clients.

How it works

  1. A form submission captures your weight, steps, and what you ate that day
  2. AI estimates the calories in your meal from the plain text description
  3. The system calculates your calorie balance for the day
  4. It pulls your last 7 days of data and builds a trend chart
  5. An email is sent with the chart and personalized feedback
What you get

Days in a row you stay on track with your goals

You get a clear picture of your eating and weight trends without doing any of the math yourself.

What you get

A daily log entry and an emailed progress chart with feedback.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a Gmail account, and a Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
