Cycle-aware mode
Add cycle data once and we adjust your daily target up by ~150–250 kcal during the late luteal phase.
For Women and cycle-aware tracking
A calorie tracker that doesn't pretend your body is a Honda Civic.
Most calorie trackers were built around a male physiological default. CalorieScan AI's cycle-aware mode adjusts targets and insights across the menstrual cycle, surfaces iron risk, and quietly hides the parts that don't help you.
The pain
Why standard trackers fall short here.
- Energy needs vary 100–300 kcal/day across the cycle; most apps treat your body as a flat line.
- Iron deficiency is common and most trackers don't flag it.
- Late-luteal cravings get framed as 'failures' instead of physiology.
- Pregnancy and postpartum aren't designed for in most apps.
What we do
How CalorieScan AI is built for this.
Iron and B12 surfacing
Iron and B12 appear in the weekly review with daily target reminders.
Pregnancy mode
Adjusts targets per trimester (roughly +340 kcal in T2, +450 in T3) and disables the deficit framing.
No diet-culture nudging
We never tell you to 'earn' food or refer to anything as a 'cheat'.
When we're not the right fit
Honest alternatives.

Frequently asked
Will CalorieScan AI work during pregnancy?
Yes — we have a pregnancy mode that adjusts targets per trimester and disables deficit-framing language. We strongly recommend doing this in coordination with your OB or RD; we are not a medical device.
How does cycle-aware mode know where I am in my cycle?
Either you log it in-app or it reads from Apple Health (which can read from Cycle Tracking, Natural Cycles, Flo, etc., depending on your permissions).
