Portio AI gives smart estimates. For meals with a clear photo, it is accurate enough to keep you on track over time, especially for trends (whether you are roughly in a deficit, maintenance, or surplus).
The accuracy gets better when you:
- Take a clear photo of the whole plate in good lighting.
-
Add a short note like:
- “~500g of chicken in this plate”
- “Full-fat milk, not low-fat”
- “Sauce is ranch, not mayo”
- “I drank 1 can of diet soda”
- Tell the app your portion: 1 or 2 plates, or 1 or 2 slices, etc.
Portio AI uses your photo plus these notes to estimate calories, protein, and other macros as realistically as possible. If you need precise numbers for a medical condition, you should follow your doctor’s or dietitian’s advice.
