Tap the mic and say it
“Lunch was a chicken wrap and an apple.” No fields, no food-database search.
Voice & chat food logging
Say what you ate the way you'd tell a friend — “chicken soup, two slices of bread, an apple.” KnowsYou turns the sentence into a meal record with estimated calories and macros, ready for your review.
Calories, nutrients and portions are estimates—not measurements.
breakfast was two eggs, toast with butter and a coffee with milk

How it works
Voice notes are transcribed with GPT-4o Transcribe through OpenRouter, with Groq-hosted Whisper available only as a fallback.
“Lunch was a chicken wrap and an apple.” No fields, no food-database search.
The text lands in the message box before it sends, so a misheard “15” never becomes a logged “50”.
The meal is saved with estimated calories and macros. Wrong portion? Say so — the record updates.
When talking wins
No barcode, no menu entry — just describe the plate.
Log lunch on the walk back, while it's still fresh.
One voice note can cover the meals, the walk and the habit.
Speak the way you actually talk about food at home.
Three inputs, one journal
| Input | Best for | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Voice or text | Home-cooked meals, quick recaps | Estimated calories and macros to review |
| Photo | A plate in front of you | Likely foods and approximate portions to confirm |
| Barcode scan | Packaged foods | Matched nutrition facts to ask about, compare or log |
Descriptions and photos can become reviewable meal records. A barcode first brings a product into the conversation; you decide whether to ask, compare or log it.
Honest limits
Words carry less information than a scale. KnowsYou estimates from what you said and marks the result as approximate — add detail or correct it whenever precision matters.
Do not use meal estimates to dose medication or manage a medical condition. If tracking feels distressing, pause it. See the safety boundaries.
FAQ
No. “A bowl of lentil soup and two slices of bread” is enough for a useful estimate. Mention a weight, brand or label when you want a tighter one — see how meal estimates work.
The speech recognition detects your language automatically, and the agent replies in your preferred language. The interface itself is currently in English.
The transcript lands in the message box for you to check before it sends — deliberate, because a misheard number matters in a food log. After sending, any detail can still be corrected by replying.
Yes. “Lunch was a chicken wrap, I walked 25 minutes and took my supplement” becomes a meal, an activity and a routine check-in — each saved in its own place.
Not yet. You tap the mic, speak, then confirm the transcript. The review step is intentional: it keeps transcription mistakes out of your journal.
They solve different meals. Talking wins for home cooking and recaps, a photo helps when the plate is in front of you, and a barcode scan brings in nutrition facts for the matched product. From there, you can ask about it, compare it or log the amount you ate.
One sentence is a record. The details can come later.
