If you're paying Gold prices to photograph meals and keep a daily log, take a hard look at that renewal. SeeMeEat covers those jobs for $50 less a year.

A food log you can actually check

Photograph your plate and SeeMeEat returns an editable draft. You see the foods it found, calories, macros, the confidence range and the assumption worth checking. Adjust the portion or food before you save it.

For packaged food, use a barcode or read the label. For a meal that's easier to explain than photograph, type or dictate it. Our scanner guide shows the real screens and the review step.

You can track water and weight alongside meals, browse your calendar and look at trends over 7 to 365 days. Export the journal as CSV, JSON or PDF when you need it.

Bring your history. Reuse your meals.

SeeMeEat supports Cronometer exports with a review preview before anything is added. The history import guide walks through that check.

Save corrected meals in Meal Memory for one-tap relogs. If you eat the same breakfast on a schedule, AutoLog can handle an exact meal you've already reviewed. Keep your attention on what you're eating, not on rebuilding yesterday's entries.
