Jakd: Level Up Your Fitness Your notes app is not a workout tracker. We get it — you've been logging sets in a spreadsheet, a notes app, or that crumpled paper in your gym bag. It worked. Sort of. But did it ever give you XP for hitting a PR? Did it rank you up for staying consistent? Did it make leg day feel like a boss fight? Jakd did. Jakd does. Jakd will. EVERY REP HAS A SCORE Log your sets — weight, reps, bodyweight, duration, distance, and more — and earn Gains (that's XP, but cooler). Hit a personal record? Bonus Gains. Stay consistent for a week? Your multiplier goes up because you're an athlete now. RANK UP OR STAY RAW Climb the ranks from Raw to Jakd. Your Daily Gains Ring tracks your progress in real-time. Think of it as your gym rep score that actually means something. ROUTINE PROGRESSION & DECAY Build custom templates and watch your routines rank up the more you use them. But be warned: skip too many sessions and your routines will decay. Your routine is judging you (lovingly). GHOST MODE (PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD) No guesswork. Your last session's numbers show up as ghost values so you always know exactly what to beat. SOCIAL FEED & LEADERBOARDS Follow your squad, share your workouts, and fight for the top of the weekly leaderboard. Nothing motivates like seeing your friend out-lift you on a Tuesday. AI SPOTTER — YOUR POCKET COACH Need a program? Stuck on an exercise? Ask the AI Spotter. Powered by advanced models, it’s your coach, programmer, and motivator rolled into one. APPLE HEALTH INTEGRATION Jakd seamlessly syncs with Apple Health. Import your steps, active energy, and historical workouts to get a complete picture of your fitness journey and earn XP for all your activity. FREE TO START Log unlimited workouts and save up to 3 templates for free. Eligible Free users aged 18 or older may see banner ads while browsing Home and workout templates.

Upgrade to Jakd Pro for: • Ad-free browsing • Unlimited Templates • Full Social Features & Leaderboards • Detailed Progress Charts • AI Spotter Access • Full XP Economy & Multipliers Your muscles are doing the work.

Eating out shouldn't mean guessing. MacroCap has the real numbers for 180+ restaurant and fast-casual menus — over 7,000 items with calories, protein, carbs, fat, and sodium. Pick something that fits your day before you order, instead of reconstructing it afterward. BUILD THE MEAL, WATCH THE MACROS Assemble anything from a menu and see the totals update as you go. Swap the side, skip the cheese, double the protein — the numbers follow every change. SORT BY WHAT'S LEFT Rank a menu by what's closest to your remaining calories, highest in protein, or lowest in cals. You choose from what actually fits, instead of scrolling blind. FIND WHAT'S NEAR YOU Sort restaurants by distance, so your shortlist is places you can actually get to. SEARCH GROCERIES TOO Scan a barcode or search by name across USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts for packaged food and whole ingredients. YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE A calorie cap that counts down and a protein floor that counts up. Logging a meal takes about twenty seconds. SEE THE PATTERN Streaks, weekly recaps, and calorie and protein trends. The headline numbers are median-based, so one blowout day doesn't rewrite your whole week. APPLE HEALTH Write your logged meals to Health as dietary energy and macros whenever you want to. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED Everything works signed out. Sign in with Apple or Google only if you want your history synced across devices. Nutrition data comes from restaurants' own published menu disclosures, USDA FoodData Central, and Open Food Facts. MacroCap is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any restaurant.
