## What is Sourced?

Sourced is an AI calorie counter that doesn't guess.

Snap a photo of any meal — AI identifies every food, and real USDA numbers do the math. Calories and macros come from USDA FoodData Central, with a per-item breakdown you can edit in a tap.

ACCURATE BY DESIGN
• AI food scanner: point your camera at any plate and get every item, portion-estimated
• Real lab data — USDA FoodData Central grounding with a "USDA verified" stamp on grounded meals
• Same photo, same answer — scans are deterministic, so you can trust the number
• See the per-item breakdown and remove anything the AI got wrong; totals recompute instantly
• Scan any Nutrition Facts label for exact package numbers — fully offline, never uses an AI scan
• Barcode scanner and 1M-food search — free and unlimited
• Describe a meal by typing — or just say it: dictation runs on your iPhone, audio is never uploaded

METABOLIC HEALTH SCORE — EAT BETTER, NOT JUST LESS
Most calorie counters only help you eat less. Sourced gives you one number, 0–100, that rises as your food quality improves — blending food quality, fiber, protein, glucose stability, and your weight trend. Your daily north star.

BUILT FOR TRAINING, TOO
• Fuel timing that reads your workouts from Apple Health — what to eat before a session and after it, never on a fixed clock
• Sport-aware targets for runners, cyclists, swimmers and triathletes: carbs, protein, and the nutrients that quietly end seasons (iron, vitamin D, magnesium)
• Honest exercise numbers — pool swims and strength sessions are over-counted by wearables, so burn is shown as a range and your budget uses the conservative end
• Carb loading, race-week fuelling and hydration, tracked against your real training load

PRIVATE BY DESIGN — ZERO DATA COLLECTED
No account. No ads. No analytics. Meal photos go to our server only at analysis time and are discarded immediately — never stored. Your log, Health data, and goals stay on your iPhone.

EVERYTHING ELSE YOU'D EXPECT
• CGM glucose insights: wearing a Stelo, Lingo, Dexcom, or Libre? Every meal ranked by your real 2-hour response (Premium)
• Nutri-Score (A–E) and ultra-processed (NOVA) flags on packaged foods
• Personalized plan with adaptive TDEE — your budget self-corrects from your real weight trend
• Fasting timer, streaks, water, weight trend, analytics, meal reminders, Siri Shortcuts, Apple Health sync
• Home-screen widgets, a weekly Sunday Report, and a shareable Nutrition Receipt for every scan
• Available in 11 languages, including full Russian and Arabic

FREE FOREVER
Barcode scanner, label scanner, food search, quick-add, saved foods, plan, dashboard, water, weight, streaks, reminders, Apple Health sync — all unlimited. Plus 3 AI scans per day.

PREMIUM
Unlimited AI photo + describe scans and full CGM glucose insights. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel in Apple ID → Subscriptions. A free trial, when offered, converts to the paid plan if not cancelled before it ends.

DISCLAIMER
Calorie and macro estimates are educational, not clinical measurements. This app is not a medical device. If you have a condition requiring medical-grade tracking, use the tools your care team prescribed.

## Frequently asked questions about Sourced

### Does Proba have ads?

No, Proba is ad-free. The app emphasizes privacy and does not contain advertisements.

### What is the metabolic health score in Proba?

The metabolic health score is a unique feature that rates your food quality on a scale of 0-100. It considers factors like food quality, fiber, protein, glucose stability, and weight trend to help you eat better, not just less.

### How accurate are Proba's AI scans?

Proba uses AI to identify food items and estimates portions, with calorie and macro data sourced from the USDA FoodData Central. Scans are designed to be deterministic, meaning the same photo should yield the same answer for consistent tracking.

### What features are free in Proba?

The free version of Proba includes unlimited barcode scanning, label scanning, food search, quick-add options, saved foods, meal planning, water tracking, weight tracking, streaks, reminders, and Apple Health sync. You also get 3 AI scans per day.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.2.3 — 2026-08-21

Fixes a bug in Quick add where a typed number could gain an extra zero — 650 becoming 6500. Manual entries now record exactly what you type.

Sourced is now free in every country except the United States.

### 2.2.2 — 2026-08-16

Sharper scans, faster logging.

• Improved AI food recognition and portion estimates
• Faster USDA FoodData Central lookups
• Refinements to the Metabolic Health Score
• Stability and performance fixes throughout

As always: no account, no ads, nothing collected. Spotted a scan that looked wrong? Tell us from Settings — we read every message.

### 2.2.1 — 2026-08-11

Built for endurance athletes.

• Fuel timing that knows your training. Reads your workouts from Apple Health and tells you what to eat before a session and after it — never on a fixed clock.
• Sport-aware targets. Carbs, protein and the nutrients that actually end seasons (iron, vitamin D, magnesium). The app works out which sport you train from your own history instead of asking.
• Honest exercise numbers. Pool swims and strength sessions are routinely over-counted by wearables, so burn is now shown as a range with the reason stated — and the budget uses the conservative end.
• Your caffeine and your sleep. If your own nights show a pattern, the app says so — with its sample size, and never as a diagnosis.
• A 14-day promise. Set a dated goal with room for a bad week, and see it on your home screen.
• More room to start. Five free scans a day for your first two weeks, so the habit can form before the limit does.

Fixes
• Streaks longer than 8 days now display correctly.
• The Scan button no longer overlaps the last row of the day.
• Logging a meal now has a moment of its own.

### 2.2.0 — 2026-08-04

Meet Proba — same app, new name, whole new look.

• Completely redesigned interface built around one idea: every number has a source
• New onboarding that builds your personalized plan from a short quiz
• New app icon — the assay stamp
• Russian and Arabic are now fully supported

Every number still comes from USDA FoodData Central. Your data is still never collected. Not a guess.

### 2.1.1 — 2026-07-19

Stability and performance improvements.
