Good to know

Once connected, you can ask Claude to log a meal by describing what you ate. You can also ask it to show today's food and totals, show the weekly trend, log your weight, or log water.2

Free TrueCal accounts get three introductory food logging attempts for the life of the account. An attempt counts once processing starts, even if no meal is saved. After those attempts, AI meal logging needs TrueCal Pro.2
