Launching 2026 · Early access open

Every bite deserves a hug.

BiteHug is a chat-first AI nutrition coach. Tell it what you ate — in plain language, with your voice, or with a photo — and it logs the meal, learns your habits, and nudges you toward your goals. Without the spreadsheet.

The problem

Calorie counting is tedious. Be honest.

Most nutrition apps make you search a database, pick a portion, tap-tap-tap, log, repeat. By day three, you stop. We’ve been there. So we built something that works the way you already talk about food.

😩 The usual food diary

  • Search for “chicken breast”. Pick brand. Pick portion. Save.
  • No Romanian foods, or wrong calories.
  • Same generic advice for every user.
  • Streak shame, weight obsession, no off-switch.
  • Forgets everything you told it last week.

🤗 BiteHug

  • “Sarmale with polenta” → logged in one message.
  • Hundreds of Romanian dishes, properly costed.
  • Coach that remembers your tastes, schedule, sensitivities.
  • ED-safe mode hides calories & streaks with one tap.
  • Voice, text, photo — whichever is fastest right now.
How it works

Three taps. One sentence. Done.

No forms. No databases to dig through. Just a coach you can talk to like a friend who happens to be a registered dietitian.

Tell it what you ate

Type it, say it out loud, or snap a photo of the plate. “I had two croissants and a flat white” is a complete log.

The coach learns you

Your portion sizes. Your favourite spots. Your no-go ingredients. Every meal makes the next answer sharper.

You move toward your goal

Nudges, recipes, shopping lists, and a weekly recap. No shaming, no streak panic. Pause anytime.

Features

Built for the way you actually eat.

The whole stack, designed around one principle: the easier it is to log, the more honest the data, the better the coach gets.

Photo logging

Snap your plate. The vision model identifies the foods, estimates portions, and asks one quick question if it’s unsure. You confirm or correct — and the model gets smarter for next time.

Voice in 10 seconds

Walking to the bus? Driving? Say what you had. We transcribe, parse, and log it. Romanian and English, with accents and diacritics handled properly.

Insights that actually mean something

Trends over 7, 30, 90 days. Macro splits. Weight + body measurements over time. Correlations like “you sleep worse on high-sugar days.” Export a doctor-ready PDF in one click.

Recipes & pantry

AI-generated recipes that respect your goals, your pantry, and your time. Shopping list with RON prices — tap to send it to Glovo, Tazz, or Bringo.

Gentle gamification

XP, streaks, quests, badges — tuned for healthy habits, not anxiety. Streak freezes when life happens. Opt out entirely if it’s not your thing.

ED-safe mode

One tap and calories, macros, weight, and streaks disappear from every screen. The coach shifts to mindful, body-neutral language. Crisis resources are always one tap away.

Romanian-first

The only nutrition app that actually speaks Romanian.

Sarmale, mămăligă, papanași, ciorbă, mici, covrigi, telemea — with portions and calories curated for the way they’re cooked here. The coach uses lei, dd.mm.yyyy, and proper diacritics. Switch to English anytime with one tap.

Sarmale 140 kcal Mămăligă 107 kcal Ciorbă de burtă 95 kcal Papanași 410 kcal Mici 235 kcal Covrig 280 kcal Telemea 270 kcal

Our values

Wellness, not warfare.

We’re building this because the alternatives gamified our relationship with food. BiteHug is designed differently — from the data model up.

Private by default

Hosted in the EU. Encrypted at rest. One-click export & delete.

GDPR-first

No dark patterns. Clear consent. Forget-mode conversations.

Body-neutral

ED-safe mode kills calories & streaks across every screen.

Works offline

PWA with an offline queue. Log on the metro, sync when you’re back.

Common questions

Things people ask us.

When does BiteHug launch?
Closed beta in 2026 with a limited cohort, public launch shortly after. Waitlist members get first access — we’ll email you with an invite link.
How much does it cost?
The Free plan includes 10 logs per month, forever. Premium will be around 69 RON / month (final pricing locked at launch) and unlocks unlimited logging, photo + voice, full insights, and recipes. Waitlist members get a launch discount.
Does it really understand Romanian foods?
Yes. Our launch database includes 500+ curated Romanian dishes — sarmale, mămăligă, ciorbă, papanași, mici, covrigi, telemea, mititei, and many more — with portions and calories costed for typical home and restaurant servings. The coach speaks Romanian properly, diacritics and all.
How accurate is the photo logging?
Our vision model handles common dishes well, especially Romanian foods, and asks a quick clarifying question if it’s unsure. Every correction you make trains the model for everyone — so accuracy improves continuously. You always confirm before a meal is logged.
Where is my data stored?
Inside the EU, in Azure West Europe (Netherlands) with Northern Europe as failover. We’re GDPR-first by design: you can export everything as JSON or delete your account (30-day grace) with a single click. Photos default to purge-after-analysis unless you opt in to keep them.
What is “ED-safe mode”?
A one-tap toggle that hides calories, macros, weight numbers, streaks, and gamification across the entire app. The coach switches to body-neutral, mindful-eating language. Built in from day one, not an afterthought.
Does it work offline?
Yes — BiteHug is a Progressive Web App. Messages and meals queue locally and sync as soon as you’re back online. The shell loads instantly even on a flaky connection.
Will there be an iPhone / Android app?
At launch BiteHug is a PWA — install it to your home screen and it behaves like a native app. We’ll ship Capacitor-wrapped native shells shortly after, so you get the App Store / Play Store listings without a feature gap.
