Logging your caffeine shouldn't be work. With Drip, just snap a photo of your drink, say it out loud, or type it. AI figures out the caffeine and logs it in seconds. Then watch it leave your system. Drip's caffeine decay chart shows exactly how much caffeine is in your body right now, when it will wear off, and whether that afternoon coffee will still be in your bloodstream at bedtime. TRACK ANY CAFFEINE SOURCE Coffee, espresso, cold brew, tea, matcha, energy drinks, soda, pre-workout, supplements, even chocolate. Search the built-in database, or create unlimited custom items with your exact drink and serving size. Had half an energy shot? Log half. KNOW WHEN YOU'RE READY FOR SLEEP Caffeine stays in your body far longer than most people think. The decay chart shows when your levels will drop low enough for quality sleep, so you can find your ideal cutoff time and stop caffeine from quietly wrecking your nights. STAY UNDER YOUR LIMIT Set a daily caffeine limit that fits your body and your goals. The home screen fills a drop as you log, so you always know where you stand at a glance. Cutting back? Drip shows your progress day by day.
