Most macro trackers die on friction. You eat the same lunch four days a week, and you search a database for it every single time. Stacking Gains is built around that fact: the food you actually eat should take one tap to log. ONE-TAP LOGGING Save your real meals as presets and log them with a single tap. Recent foods sit at the top, so repeating yesterday takes one thumb. AI ESTIMATES FOR EVERYTHING ELSE Describe a meal or photograph it and get macros back, broken down ingredient by ingredient so you can see how the number was built. Every value is editable before it saves. Estimates are estimates: when there is a label, trust the label. SCAN THE BARCODE Packaged food? Scan it and the label's numbers come straight in. Set servings, log, done. MODES FOR THE SEASON YOU'RE IN Maintain, Cut, Rest Day, Off-season. You name your modes, you set the numbers, you switch in one tap, and the active mode is what "on target" means today. Stacking Gains never picks your macros for you. That is between you and your coach. FREE NOW, AND FREE FOR EARLY USERS Stacking Gains is free today, with no ads. It will not be free forever: a paid plan is coming, and we would rather tell you now than surprise you later. Create your account before it arrives and you keep everything the app does today, free for good, with a monthly allowance of AI estimates. No countdown, no card, nothing to cancel. YOURS, ACTUALLY Your log belongs to you: delete your account from inside the app and everything goes with it, immediately and permanently. Food photos are used to produce the estimate and are not stored on our servers. Stacking Gains is a tracker, not a clinician. Nothing in it is medical or nutritional advice.
