Know before you bite. Before I Bite is AI nutrition tracking for shared meals. Hot pot. Dim sum. Mezze. Thali. Tapas. Family dinners. Office lunches. Shared tables are where mainstream calorie apps struggle. Before I Bite helps you log your portion of what reaches the table, without forcing a shared meal into one solo plate. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • Built around shared dishes, not solo plates • Adjust your portion of any item before saving • AI-assisted estimates you can review and adjust • Tracks 8 nutrition metrics: calories, protein, carbs, fat, sodium, sugar, fibre, and saturated fat • AI photo, barcode, and label scanning included HOW IT WORKS 1. Snap a photo of the dish (or the whole table) 2. Our AI identifies foods and estimates macros and key nutrients 3. Drag your portion slider - nutrition totals recalculate live 4. Save to your daily log CAPTURE OPTIONS • AI photo scan - for cooked meals, plated dishes, and shared spreads • Barcode scanner - for packaged foods when a code is available • Nutrition label OCR - when there is no barcode • Manual text lookup - for when you already know what you ate PERSONAL TARGETS Set daily nutrition targets based on your goal: • Lose weight, maintain, or gain • Endurance athlete (more carbs for training) • Muscle builder (higher protein for lifting) • Customise manually any time APPLE HEALTH Optionally read your height, weight, active energy, and basal energy from Apple Health to personalise targets. Logged calories, macros, and key nutrients write back to Health when you're ready. CALORIE BALANCE Wear an Apple Watch? Before I Bite can use active and basal energy from Apple Health to show your calorie balance, so you can see whether you are burning or consuming more by the end of the day. PRIVACY FIRST • Free to use, with optional Before I Bite Pro to remove ads • Free users may see a labelled ad on the meal analysis screen; Pro removes all ads • Your meal photos, food entries, and health data are never used for ad targeting • Sign in with Apple or Google • HealthKit access is optional and HealthKit-sourced values are not sent to our servers • Delete your account and all server data anytime from Settings • App Tracking Transparency controls ad tracking — deny it and the full free experience still works A NOTE ON ACCURACY Calorie estimates from photos are approximations, not measurements. Use them as a guide, adjust portions when you can, and don't treat any calorie app as medical advice. Before I Bite is a tracking tool, not a nutritionist or doctor. QUESTIONS?

About

LeanerTogether

Point your camera at any meal. That is the whole app on day one. But here is the truth: LeanerTogether is not really a calorie counter. It is an identity change, one small win at a time. You do not just track food. You become the kind of person who shows up daily, and the app shows you that person taking shape. Over 3,000 people in Singapore are already doing it. HOW IT WORKS • Snap any meal: calories, protein, carbs and fat in seconds. It knows chicken rice, laksa, cai png and nasi lemak, not just salads • 43,000 foods, and LeanerTogether is licensed to use the Health Promotion Board's Food & Nutrient Database, Singapore's official nutrition reference, so local dishes carry the official figures • Ask the coach "what should I eat near me?" and it names suitable dishes first, then the listed hawker centres nearby and walking directions • 5 simple daily habits: water, protein, steps, sleep, one short lesson • 3 of 5 counts. We reward showing up, never perfection • Watch your identity build: from The Starter to The Builder, The Consistent One, The Self-Leader and beyond, with real milestones for the person you are becoming • A 24/7 coach who knows your goal, remembers what it already suggested, and talks like a human, not a robot • Steps and sleep fill in automatically from Apple Health • A short lesson every day for your first 190 days: real life, food courts, building the habit • A weekly body report grounded in your real numbers, never invented scores • Say it or type it: log a meal by voice when your hands are full BUILT FOR SINGAPORE Most fitness apps assume you cook at home. LeanerTogether assumes you had lunch at a hawker centre, and coaches you from there. NO PERFECTION REQUIRED We will never ask you to eat perfectly. We help you make one better decision today, then another tomorrow. Do that long enough and you are not trying anymore. You are becoming. HONEST BY DESIGN No photo or app can measure food like a laboratory. Every scan shows how sure it is, and you can edit anything before saving. The coach only quotes numbers the app actually holds. Free to use. Your data stays yours. Delete your account and everything goes with it, any time, from inside the app. IMPORTANT HEALTH INFORMATION LeanerTogether is a general wellness and food-tracking app. It is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or medical condition. Calorie and nutrition figures from photo scans are estimates, not measurements. Coaching messages are written by an AI and are general guidance only. Always seek the advice of your doctor or another qualified health professional before changing your diet, activity or any treatment, and with any question you have about a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read in this app. If you think you may have a medical emergency, contact your local emergency services immediately. LeanerTogether is a product of LEANERTOGETHER PTE. LTD.
