Finally, calorie tracking for the rest of us. Noted is for everyone who's tried calorie tracking before and given up. For everyone intimidated by complex fitness apps. For everyone who just wants to know what they ate without the homework. Type it like a note. See the calories. "Coffee and a banana" → 200 cal "Chipotle burrito bowl with chicken" → 670 cal "Leftover pizza, 2 slices" → 550 cal That's it. No searching databases. No scanning barcodes. No weighing portions. Just write what you ate in plain English, and Noted figures out the rest. Built for Day One, not Day 100. Most calorie apps are designed for fitness enthusiasts who already know what they're doing. Noted is different. It's designed for your first day of paying attention to what you eat and to make that first day actually stick. Why people switch to Noted: • Log meals in under 10 seconds • No account required - just open and start • No overwhelming dashboards or charts • Works with how you actually describe food Noted isn't trying to replace the complex apps. It's for people who never wanted them in the first place.
