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 understands food the way people talk about it. Whether you say “a handful of almonds,” “half a bowl of dal,” or specify “103 grams of chicken,” it just works — no rigid format, no guesswork.
And it’s built for a global palate — from sushi and tacos to vada pav or brigadeiro, Poshan AI recognizes dishes from around the world, including popular brands and everyday staples. It adapts to how you eat and speak, turning nutrition tracking from a chore into something effortless, accurate, and intuitive.
Poshan AI is built for real people, real food, and real goals — making it effortless to understand what fuels you. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I’ve enjoyed building it.
At Poshan AI, our mission is to make nutrition tracking effortless, accurate, and personal — for everyone, everywhere.
We believe food is deeply emotional and individual, so your tracking app should adapt to you — your culture, your food, your language — not the other way around. By combining intelligent language understanding with powerful nutrition science, we’re reimagining how people around the world connect with what they eat — one simple description at a time.
