Carb tracking that takes seconds, not spreadsheets

Whether you’re counting carbs day to day or managing a smaller appetite on a GLP-1 medication, Swoodie gives you the numbers instantly — from a photo, a barcode, or a recipe.

Carb-aware eating runs into the same wall in most apps: every meal means a manual database search. It’s slow, it’s tedious, and it’s the single biggest reason people stop tracking within a week.

Swoodie removes that wall. The AI photo scan estimates carbs, sugar, protein, fat, and calories from a picture of your plate. Barcode scanning covers packaged food. And if you’re on a GLP-1 medication with a reduced appetite, the meal planner can build around a protein floor so you don’t quietly under-eat.

Pain points Swoodie addresses

  • Manual carb lookup for every single meal — tedious enough that most people quit
  • GLP-1 medications shrink appetite, so it’s easy to under-eat protein without noticing
  • Restaurant and home-cooked meals have no barcode, so carbs become a guess
  • Generic recipe apps don’t surface carb-heavy ingredients before you cook
  • Tracking feels clinical and joyless, so it never becomes a habit
