Learn moreThe calories you’re not counting are the ones keeping the scale stuck
The tablespoon of oil. The dressing you eyeballed. The glaze on the salmon. That’s roughly 200 uncounted calories a day, usually the reason “eating healthy” isn’t moving the number. Forkd’s AI flags them, shows its reasoning, and lets you accept or edit. You finally see the whole plate.
Meet Forkie, your health coach
Forkie is a hedgehog, and he’s not decoration, he’s a coach whose personality shifts with your consistency. Log regularly and he gets funnier, flashier, more into it. Go quiet and he gets more direct. Either way, he’s always pointing you at your goal: the nutrient to fix, the streak to save, the small swap that helps. He’s the reason tracking with Forkd feels less like a spreadsheet and more like someone’s in your corner.
Built by one person. Not a conglomerate.
The big calorie apps are getting bought up and bolted together. Forkd is built and run by one founder who uses it every day, which means honest pricing, no dark-pattern billing, and features chosen because they help you, not a quarterly target. That’s the whole pitch: a nutrition app that’s actually on your side.

Frequently asked questions
Is Forkd free?
Yes, photo scanning to get started, meal logging, the fasting timer, water tracking, and Forkie are free. Forkie Pro unlocks the full macro and micronutrient breakdown, hidden-ingredient detection, personal nutrient alerts, weekly insights, and the Nutrition Score.
How accurate is AI calorie counting?
AI photo logging typically lands within roughly 8–12% on mixed meals, meaningfully better than eyeballing a plate, which misses by 20–50%. Every estimate is editable, so you can correct anything the AI gets wrong in a tap.
Do I have to take a photo, or can I log by voice?
You can log however suits the moment. Snap a photo, say what you ate as a voice note, or type a quick line. Forkd reads all three and returns the same full breakdown, so you never have to search a database.
Do I have to weigh my food?
No. Forkd estimates portions from the objects in your photo and learns your typical portions over time. You can adjust any portion manually if you know the exact weight.
What makes Forkd different from other calorie counters?
Forkd flags the hidden ingredients other apps miss, cooking oils, dressings, and sauces, pulls micronutrients per ingredient from USDA data, recognises regional dishes from 50+ countries, and is independent and founder-built rather than part of a conglomerate.
Does it track fasting and water too?
Yes. Fasting windows, water intake, weight, and streaks all live in one app, with Forkie coaching you across all of them.
What phones does Forkd support?
Forkd is available on iPhone. Search "AI Calorie Tracker: Forkd" on the App Store to download.
