Talerz: Calorie Counter AI

Talerz is a calorie counter and macro tracker built around Polish and European home cooking. Add a meal with a photo of your plate, a barcode, a text or voice description, search or ready meal sets. The food database lives on your phone, so calorie counting works offline too.

Calories from a photo, privately
Take a photo of your meal and Talerz recognises the dish and shows calories, protein, fat and carbs. Recognition runs on your phone: with Google's Gemini Nano on phones that have it, otherwise with a model downloaded once into the app. The photo never leaves your phone. Talerz usually gets the dish name right, and when it is not sure it lets you pick from a list. Calories from a photo are an estimate with a range, because a photo cannot replace a kitchen scale, so you can fix the grams in one tap.

Barcode scanner and nutrition labels
Scan a barcode or photograph the nutrition table, and the label is read on your phone. See the Nutri-Score, E additives with short notes, hidden sugars, palm oil, allergens and the processing level (NOVA). Talerz also suggests a better choice from the same category.

Food database and recipes
21,427 products from Polish shops and popular dishes with household measures (spoon, slice, glass) are stored on the phone. On top of that, 499 Polish recipes with a "Rest of the day" filter that shows what still fits your goal.

Macros, protein and a calorie goal
As a calorie counter and macro tracker, Talerz tracks calories, protein, fat and carbs for every meal and the whole day. Your goal uses the Mifflin St Jeor formula. If you plan to lose weight, the pace is capped for safety, the goal never drops below your basal metabolic rate, and during pregnancy or breastfeeding the app does not set a deficit.

Habits and suggestions
Talerz remembers your portions and shows what you usually eat. Repeat yesterday's meal in one tap, and "Rest of the day" suggestions help you close the day.

Meal planner and shopping list
Plan meals for the whole week yourself or from Talerz suggestions. The shopping list is built from your plan and shows separately what you already have at home.

What's in my fridge
Take a photo of your fridge or type the products, and Talerz shows recipes from what you have, with the diet and allergens from your profile. In "At home" you keep use by dates and get a reminder a day before. A season calendar suggests Polish vegetables and fruit.

Food diary, water and weight
Water tracker, intermittent fasting, supplements, weight with a forecast, body measurements, streaks and charts. A PDF report for your dietitian, CSV export and backup. Works with Health Connect, has a widget and reminders.

Diets and health
Vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and diabetes (carbohydrate exchanges), with allergen warnings. The health profile covers high blood pressure, diabetes and kidney disease, and you always set limits with your doctor. A no numbers mode hides calories, weight and the deficit goal for people who do not want to see numbers, including people with eating disorders.

Privacy
This calorie tracker needs no account: your food diary stays on the phone. Meal photos are recognised on your phone and never sent anywhere. Delete all data with one button.

Free calorie counter with ads
Calories from a photo, the barcode scanner, the meal planner and every other feature are available without paying, and ads keep the app running. An ad free subscription removes the ads.

Talerz helps you count calories, it is not medical advice or a medical device. If you are ill, pregnant or have an eating disorder, discuss your diet with a doctor or dietitian.
