Most people don't quit tracking calories because they stop caring — they quit because logging every meal is a chore. BiteKit removes the chore. Just tell BiteKit what you ate, the way you'd tell a friend: type it, say it out loud, or snap a photo. The AI works out the calories, protein, carbs and fat — including portion sizes and individual ingredients — and logs it in seconds. No database scrolling, no barcode hunting, no guessing. WHY BITEKIT FEELS DIFFERENT • Log in one sentence — "two eggs, sourdough toast and a cappuccino" is a complete food log • Snap a photo — BiteKit recognizes the meal and breaks it down ingredient by ingredient • Speak instead of type — perfect for logging on the go • Smart accuracy — BiteKit searches the web for real product and restaurant data, so estimates reflect what you actually ate • See your whole day at a glance — calories left, protein, carbs and fat on one clean dashboard • Edit meals by chatting — "make it a large portion" or "no dressing" updates the numbers instantly STAY ON TRACK, GENTLY • Daily targets tailored to you from a quick setup — no spreadsheet math • Weekly energy and macro charts help you spot patterns • Weight trend tracking with Apple Health sync • Streaks and progress views that encourage consistency, not perfection SYNC & BACKUP Sign in to securely back up your food diary and weight history and keep them in sync across your devices — so you never lose your progress. Your data is yours: we never sell it or share it. BiteKit provides nutrition estimates and general guidance, not medical advice. Ready to make tracking effortless? Download BiteKit and log your next meal in one sentence. BiteKit Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. • Weekly — $3.99 per week • Monthly — $9.99 per month • Yearly — $49.99 per year Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
