The problem
Calorie counting shouldn't feel like a second job.
You know tracking works. You've just never made it past week two.
The old way: dig through a food database for "chicken, grilled, skinless," guess whether that's 4 oz or 6, log every side dish by hand, and do it three-plus times a day until you quietly give up.
PlateIQ does the work for you. Snap a photo — or just type or speak what you ate — and the AI handles the identification, the portions, and the macro math. You get an accurate log in seconds and a coach that tells you what to do next. The effort drops low enough that you actually keep going. That's the whole point.

Core features
Everything it takes to logwithout the work.
Real screens from the live app — real AI output, not mockups.
01 — AI Photo Food Scan
Snap it. It's logged.
Point your camera at any plate and the AI names each food, estimates the portion, and calculates calories plus protein, carbs, fat and fiber. No database hunting, no manual entry — just a photo.
02 — Per-Item Breakdown
See exactly what's on your plate.
Every meal comes back itemized — each food with its own calories and macro chips, plus a clean total you can trust. Portion off? Tap and adjust in a second.

03 — AI Text & Voice Logging
Type it. Say it. Done.
No photo? Just describe your meal in plain language — "grilled chicken breast, brown rice and steamed broccoli" — or speak it out loud with the mic. The AI splits it into items with per-item calories and macros automatically.
04 — AI Coach
Your personal nutritionist, on call 24/7.
The AI Coach reads your real data across daily, weekly and monthly views and gives you tailored recommendations, a clear verdict, and a forecast for your goal. It factors in your streaks, hydration, protein targets and progress — and answers in your language.
05 — "What to Eat?" Suggestions
Out of ideas? One tap, sorted.
Tap once and the AI suggests foods that fit your remaining calories and macros for the day — automatically steering around your flagged allergens. Like what you see? Log it with a single tap.
06 — Allergen Awareness
Eat with confidence.
Set your health conditions and allergies once, and PlateIQ flags allergens in the food you log and tailors its tips around them — surfaced front-and-center on an Allergen Alert card.
07 — Smart Targets & Dashboard
Numbers that fit you, at a glance.
Your daily calorie and macro targets are computed from your body metrics and goal — with a protein floor to protect muscle — and an adaptive option that learns from your real data. The dashboard shows calories left, macro progress bars, net calories and water in one clean view.
And there's more
A full toolkit, not a calorie counter.
Barcode Scanning
Scan any barcode for instant, accurate nutrition from a global food database. Perfect for groceries and snacks.

Every meal shows what it'd take to burn it off — e.g. a walk, swim or bike ride scaled to the calories — for instant context.
Water Tracking
Log your intake toward a daily hydration goal, right alongside your calories and macros.
Activity & Workouts
Log walking, running, swimming, cycling, gym, yoga, cardio and strength with calorie burn and net-calorie math.
Wearable Sync

Progress Tracking
Weight chart, calorie history by week or month, and a goal forecast with a projected date.
Fasting Timer
Track your intermittent-fasting windows with a live countdown ring — start, elapsed, remaining.
Streak Tracking
Your logging streak and personal best feed the AI Coach, so it can flag when your momentum slips and keep you showing up.
6 Languages
English, Russian, German, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese — the app and the AI Coach both speak your language.
Adaptive BMR
An optional adaptive metabolism mode learns from your real intake and weight trend to refine your targets.
Frequent Foods
One-tap re-log of the foods you eat most — your usuals are always a tap away.

🔻
A deficit you can actually live with.
Fat loss comes down to a consistent calorie deficit — and most people miss because logging gets exhausting and they stop. PlateIQ makes tracking so fast you keep doing it, so the deficit holds. The AI Coach keeps you honest and on track.
See "calories left" the moment you log — no mental math, no dinner surprises.
Stay accountable with streaks and a coach that flags when you're drifting.
Watch the trend, not the day — a weight chart that turns green toward your goal.
⚖️
Maintain your physique without obsessing.
You don't want to count every gram for the rest of your life — you want to eat mindfully and stay where you are. PlateIQ gives you fast, low-effort awareness: log in seconds, glance at the dashboard, move on with your day.
Quick daily check-ins — a photo or a sentence, then you're done.
Net-calorie clarity — consumed minus burned at a glance, wearable workouts synced.
Mindful, not obsessive — "What to eat?" keeps you on target without overthinking.
💪
Hit your protein. Nail your surplus.
Building muscle is a numbers game: enough protein, a controlled surplus, and consistency over weeks. PlateIQ sets a protein target with a floor built to protect muscle, makes per-item protein dead-simple, and forecasts your trajectory.
Protein-first targets — a science-based protein floor baked into your daily goal.
Per-item macro chips — know the protein in every food, not just a daily lump sum.
Goal forecast with a projected date — see where your current trend is taking you.
AI Coach
Meet the coach that actually knows your data.
Most apps hand you a number and walk away. PlateIQ's AI Coach reads everything you've logged — meals, macros, hydration, workouts, streaks and weight trend — and turns it into real guidance.
In one tap it analyzes your daily, weekly and monthly picture, then delivers a clear verdict, specific recommendations for each timeframe, and a forecast for your goal. It knows your protein target. It respects your allergens. It notices when your streak is slipping. And it talks to you in your own language.
It's the difference between tracking your nutrition and actually improving it.
I'm steadily losing weight — and actually keeping it off. PlateIQ works out my metabolism with a real formula, so my daily calorie target is accurate for my body instead of a generic number. And whenever I'm unsure, there's a detailed in-app guide I can read, or I just ask the AI help and it explains it on the spot.

I stay in shape without even thinking about it.
It keeps me in great shape with barely any effort. I log my workouts, it syncs with my watch, and it tracks the whole picture — not only what I eat, but my water and every kind of training too. Everything in one place.
Daniel, 29Munich"
It tells me if a meal is good or bad for me.
When I photograph a meal it instantly tells me whether it's good for me or not, and the AI Coach gives me advice based on the full context of everything I've eaten — not one meal in isolation. That completely changed the way I eat.
