FAQ

How accurate are photo estimates?

They're estimates, usually close enough for trends. It shows its assumptions so you can correct them, and a food scale helps if you want precision.

How is it different from Meal Planner & Grocery Budget Bot?

The Meal Planner plans the week's meals and grocery list on a budget. This bot tracks what you actually eat and coaches you on it.

Will it put me on a crash diet?

No. It uses moderate deficits with minimum calorie floors and gentle language.

Can I use my doctor's or dietitian's targets?

Yes, and that's encouraged.

Will it act without asking me?

No. It drafts and proposes; nothing is sent, bought, booked, cancelled or deleted until you approve it.

Is my data shared anywhere?

No. Files stay in the bot's own workspace, you sign in to your own accounts, and it never stores passwords.
