CLUSTER PHOTOS-ESTIMATE-MEALS · 15 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-15
Photo-based nutrition tracking apps
This cluster consists of apps that use photos of meals, often combined with text or label analysis, to estimate calories and macronutrients and track users' dietary intake against personalized goals. The dated entry history, based on months before the index start, shows a sparse but consistent trickle from April 2024 through June 2026, with occasional months having two new entries. The traction leaders all show zero activity stars, indicating no significant user engagement.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
