## What is ClearCal?

Lose weight without turning food tracking into a second job. ClearCal combines simple meal tracking with protein, movement, strength, and weight progress — then helps you understand what deserves your attention next.

Snap a photo of your meal and ClearCal estimates calories and protein in seconds. Review exactly what it detected, adjust portions or foods when needed, and keep moving.
But ClearCal doesn't stop at showing you a calorie number.

KNOW WHAT MATTERS TODAY
Your Today screen brings together your nutrition, protein target, movement, strength activity, and weight progress in one calm view. ClearCal's Next Best Move helps turn those numbers into one useful action for the rest of your day.

SCAN REAL MEALS
Photograph homemade meals, restaurant dishes, mixed plates, snacks, and more. ClearCal breaks the result down food by food so you can see what was detected before you save it.

KEEP PROTEIN VISIBLE
See how much protein you've logged and how much remains for the day. After a meal, ClearCal can show how that meal changed your progress and what may deserve attention next.

SEE MORE THAN TODAY'S NUMBER
Follow your weight trend alongside the behaviors that support your plan. Connect Apple Health for steps, workouts, and weight, or add weigh-ins manually.

UNDERSTAND YOUR WEEK
Weekly Clear brings protein, movement, strength, and weight progress together so you can see what went well and what to focus on next.

CLEARCAL LEARNS YOUR ROUTINE
ClearCal recognizes meals you repeat so logging gets easier over time. Log a usual meal again without starting from scratch.

LOOK BACK WITH CONTEXT
Quickly see which days you've logged, revisit previous meals, and use Day Recap to understand the day without treating every calorie difference as a success or failure.

FREE TO START
ClearCal includes free AI meal scans and core tracking features. ClearCal Pro unlocks unlimited AI scans and deeper personalized guidance and insights.
Whether you're beginning a weight-loss journey or simply want a clearer way to understand what you eat, ClearCal is designed to make consistency easier.
Lose weight. Stay strong. Know what to do next.

Nutrition estimates generated from meal photos are estimates and may vary based on ingredients, preparation methods, portion visibility, and other factors.
