Photo Calorie Counter App

Snap a picture of your meal. Calzy's AI calculates calories, protein, carbs, fat — and tells you if what you're eating is actually good for you.

In plain English

Calzy lets people take a picture of their meal and get the calories, protein, carbs and fat. It also says whether the food is a good choice for the user's goals. People pay a subscription to keep logging meals. TrustMRR shows about $620 a month in recurring revenue. The AI estimates the food from the photo, and the owner improves accuracy and markets the app.
