When you log a meal, WeightBuddy doesn’t just estimate calories — it also breaks down the macronutrients (protein, fat, and carbohydrates) that make up your food. This allows you to monitor the balance of your meals and adjust your diet accordingly.
The AI’s accuracy is powered by a large dataset of global food photos, enabling it to identify thousands of dishes with impressive precision. However, lighting, camera angle, and photo quality can all influence the result. If your meal is misidentified, don’t worry — you can edit it directly from your log to make it more accurate.
The goal of the AI isn’t just automation but also education. Over time, you’ll start to see how portion size and food composition impact your daily nutrition and progress.
