## What is Makeweight?

Make weight without wrecking your performance.

Makeweight is the cut companion for combat-sports athletes — BJJ (gi & no-gi), wrestling, MMA, and boxing. Tell it your division and competition date and it builds the exact path to the scale: one number to hit every morning, a daily plan, and a day-by-day fight-week protocol.

ONE NUMBER EVERY MORNING
See whether you're on track for your weigh-in at a glance — your weight against the glide path that gets you to your division on time, safely.

A REAL FIGHT-WEEK PROTOCOL
Water load → taper → cut → weigh-in → refuel. Evidence-based volumes for water, sodium, and carbs each day, plus a rehydration protocol based on UFC Performance Institute guidelines, sized to your actual cut and weigh-in format (mat-side or day-before).

PHOTO FOOD LOGGING
Snap your plate and get an itemized macro + sodium breakdown — including fast food. Search restaurants, whole foods, and packaged products, or scan a barcode.

YOUR CORNER, ANY HOUR (Pro)
An AI coach that answers from YOUR real numbers — weight, macros left, days out. "Can I eat this?" "Should I sauna today?" "I'm starving — what now?"

SAFE BY DESIGN
Every cut is checked for feasibility before you start, with honest verdicts and water-cut caps based on your recovery window. Makeweight will tell you when a cut isn't safe.

FREE TO START
Morning weigh-ins, your glide path, food logging, and the full day-by-day fight-week protocol are free — no subscription. Makeweight Pro adds the AI corner coach, unlimited photo food logging, and a coach-built plan rebuilt for you every morning. On the free tier you get one photo scan and three days of coach-built plans. Pro is available monthly, annually, or as a single-competition pass.

### 5/5 — Weight tracking

*2026-08-18*

I am both a bjj and mma athlete and I’m glad I get to track weight accordingly for both of those sports. The ai stuff is pretty cool too!

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-08-18

Fixes and improvements from the first month of real cuts.

• Daily plans are far more reliable. The coach now retries instead of quietly falling back to a generic plan, and a plan that failed is rebuilt next time you open the app.
• Photo scans retry automatically when a connection drops, so one hiccup no longer costs you the scan.
• Food verdicts got sharper. High-sodium and low-protein meals are now flagged at any distance from your weigh-in, not only during fight week.
• Onboarding picks up where you left off if you close the app partway through.
• New reminders across the long stretch of camp — four weeks, three, two and one week out — plus a nudge for your second morning weigh-in.
• The Today screen now shows your last weigh-in and how long ago it was, instead of a blank dash.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-21

No release notes.
