Built for people who hate logging
TrueCal started as a personal workaround for a problem every calorie tracker shares: the logging feels harder than the eating.
It started with frustration
The founder tried every app, from barcode scanners to voice dictation, and still spent more time searching than eating. Logging became a daily chore.
The ChatGPT "aha" moment
If ChatGPT could understand whole paragraphs, why couldn't it understand food? The idea was simple: let people talk naturally and let the AI do the calorie math.
TrueCal was born
TrueCal was built first as a personal tool. Friends asked to use it. The beta grew. Now TrueCal is focused on making nutrition tracking effortless for anyone.
