Where foodoo is different
A photo, a sentence or your voice
The AI reads the dish and the portion; calories and nutrients come from laboratory data wherever it can. 3 analyses a day are free.
How food makes you feel
A short question after meals, then your own patterns: what keeps you full, steady or sleepy — and a forecast for every meal.
Numbers are optional
“No numbers” mode hides calories everywhere and talks about plants, processing and how you feel instead.
More than a diary
A pet that eats what you log, chats with the people you eat with, a child's food diary kept together, and a GLP-1 mode.

Questions
Is foodoo free?
Yes. Everything in foodoo is free to use, with 3 AI food analyses a day. Premium ($2.99 a month or $29.99 a year) removes the daily AI limits.
Can I move my diary from Foodnoms?
Export Foodnoms's diary as CSV and upload it, or send screenshots of your diary — foodoo reads them. You see a preview first and nothing is written until you confirm.
Is foodoo more accurate than Foodnoms?
The AI recognises the dish and the portion; wherever possible, calories and nutrients come from laboratory data rather than the AI's guess, and any result can be put right with one sentence. No photo-based estimate is exact — the portion is the hardest part, so foodoo also learns from your own corrections.
