The story behind CaloTec-AI

An Israeli app born from a simple frustration: why should logging a meal be a project?

The desk where the app was written

2023 — The idea

As a software developer trying to watch my weight, I looked for a calorie app that didn't feel like a form in English. I couldn't find one that understood Hebrew and local food, so I started building one.

2024 — The build

We connected an AI engine that turns a free-form sentence into foods and estimated nutrition values. The diary stays on the device; the meal description is sent to Gemini or the DeepSeek fallback when analysis is requested.

2025 — The launch

CaloTec-AI went live on Google Play: calorie tracking, step tracking including Health Connect, water and a rewards system. Free, ad-supported, in five languages.

Three things that don't move

Free, with ads

The app is available without a subscription and displays ads through Google Mobile Ads.

The diary is yours

Your diary, weight and goals stay on the device. The meal description is processed by Gemini, with DeepSeek as a fallback; the result is stored in the local diary.

Open to feedback

Send feature requests and bug reports by email or through Google Play reviews.

The app is young and improving every month
