## What is CalDex?

Meet CalDex — the calorie counter that's actually fun.

Point your camera at any meal and AI logs it in seconds — calories, protein, carbs, and fat, ingredient by ingredient. Every meal you log earns Berries. Berries hatch Eggs. And Eggs hatch Munchlings! 99 adorable creatures to collect, from common to legendary, with shimmering holographic rarities.

You came for the calorie counter. You'll stay for the Munchlings.

SNAP. EAT. DONE.
• Photo scan: AI reads the whole plate at once — no database digging
• Barcode & nutrition-label scanner for packaged food
• Type or speak it: "2 eggs and toast" becomes a full, editable log
• Saved meals & recipes for the things you eat on repeat

YOUR COLLECTION

• Common, rare, epic, and legendary rarities — plus holo variants

A COACH, NOT A CALCULATOR

• Streak freezes protect your run when life happens
• Perfect days and goals earn bonus Berries

SEE YOUR WEEK, WRAPPED
• A weekly report that's actually fun to open — your stats as a story

• Water and weight tracking with trends
• Smart targets computed from your goal, with safe minimums
