The Calorie Counter That
Doesn't Need a Barcode
Most calorie counters were built for packaged food. But what about the meals you actually cook? The plate your friend made? The restaurant dish with no nutrition label? Macro Maxxing counts calories from photos and voice — no barcode required.
Why Barcode Scanning Isn't Enough
Barcode scanners work great for packaged food. But research shows that most of what we eat doesn't come with a barcode — home-cooked meals, restaurant dishes, meals from friends or family, bulk-prepped food.
That's where AI comes in. Macro Maxxing lets you take a photo of any meal — packaged or not — and instantly get a calorie and macro estimate.
3 Ways to Count Calories
Photo Scan
Snap a photo of your plate. AI identifies the foods and estimates calories from portion sizes. Works on mixed plates, restaurant meals, and home-cooked food.
Voice Input
Say what you ate naturally: “Two eggs, toast with butter, and a glass of orange juice.” AI parses your description and generates the calorie count.
Manual Entry
Search our USDA-powered food database or enter custom macros directly.

Calories matter, but macros matter more. Macro Maxxing tracks all four: calories, protein, carbs, and fat. Plus, it automatically adjusts your daily targets when you log a workout.
Add in streaks, leaderboards, and a social feed, and you've got the most motivating calorie counter you've ever used.
