Our story
I've been a software engineer for over 15 years, and I've always wanted to build something at the intersection of health and technology. Fitness and nutrition have always been a big part of my life — from building strength and improving performance to managing weight. But the more I tracked my meals, the more I realized how unnecessarily complicated it all was.
During the pandemic, I started experimenting in the kitchen — recreating flavors from home and trying new recipes from around the world. That process made me realize how disconnected most food-tracking tools are from the way people actually eat.
Around the same time, I watched my partner on her own fitness journey. While I focused on strength and fat loss, she was working toward healthy weight gain, carefully tracking calories, vitamins, and minerals. Watching her face the same frustrations from the opposite goal made something clear — the tools and the experience were both broken.
That's what inspired me to create Poshan AI — a smarter, simpler way to track what you eat.
Just describe your meal the way you naturally would — "2 eggs, half avocado, 2 slices of bread" or "chicken curry with rice" — and Poshan AI instantly breaks it down into calories, macros, and even vitamins and minerals.
It's built for a global palate. Whether you say "a handful of almonds," "half a bowl of dal," or "103 grams of chicken," it just works — no rigid format, no guesswork.
