About

Brasa

Features
Read full description

Brasa is a protein-first calorie tracker built for people who lift. You're not just trying to eat less โ€” you're cutting fat while protecting muscle. That changes everything: protein comes first, workouts earn calories back, and you need the truth about your plate, not a participation trophy. SCAN ANY MEAL, GET AN HONEST NUMBER Point your camera at any plate. Brasa's AI identifies each food it can see, estimates real portions using objects in frame for scale, and hunts for hidden calories, like the oil your chicken was cooked in, already counted in your total. Every meal gets an honest verdict: Healthy, Balanced, or Unhealthy, with concrete reasons. No flattery. PROTEIN FIRST Your protein target is calculated to protect muscle while you cut, and your progress toward it is right on your dashboard. Protein target bar, daily progress, and 43 recipes with full macros included. WORKOUTS COUNT Log your lifts, runs, or HIIT in three taps. Calories burned extend your daily budget โ€” the standard MET formula, honestly labeled as an estimate, because that's what it is. CORRECT ANY ITEM AI portion estimates aren't perfect โ€” nobody's are. So fixing one is quick: tap any item, change its grams, and its calories, macros and your meal total recalculate. FIVE WAYS TO LOG Photo scan ยท 3-shot scan ยท short video ยท barcode ยท voice ("two eggs and a protein shake") โ€” plus a 118-food offline library with a meal basket for building full plates. MORE โ€ข Month calendar of every day's calories and macros โ€ข Bloodwork upload with out-of-range flags โ€ข Streaks that survive rest days โ€ข 8 app languages (scan results and some screens are still in English) โ€ข The AI actually knows international food โ€” arepas, bibimbap, feijoada, tagine โ€ข Dark mode, iPhone-native, no ads Brasa Pro: auto-renewing Yearly subscription (3-day free trial for eligible new subscribers) or Weekly subscription (no free trial). Prices shown in the app. Auto-renews until cancelled in App Store settings. Health figures are AI estimates for informational use โ€” not medical advice.
