How it works

One loop. Three moves.

Logging dinner should never turn into a project. TypeCal runs on a single repeatable rhythm.

01

Capture

Say it however it comes out. “two eggs and toast” is enough. Or point the camera, scan a barcode, paste a link.

02

Review

Calories and macros arrive ready for review. Fix a portion, swap an item, then approve. Nothing counts until you say so.

03

Reuse

Saved meals, recipes, and history make the next similar meal a two-tap job. The log gets faster every week.

Four ways in

Every meal gets the input it deserves.

Fast logging cannot force every meal through one rigid form. Pick the door that matches the moment.

Type it like a text

Natural language for the meals you can describe faster than you could ever search a database.

Snap the plate

When the ingredients are visible and typing would be annoying.

Scan the package

Packaged food without the hunt.

Paste a recipe link

Import once. Log it forever.

The difference

AI does the math.
You get the final say.

Most AI trackers hide the guesswork. TypeCal shows its math — and when something looks off, you don’t re-log or argue with a chatbot. Tap the number, fix it, move on.

Every item, portion, and macro is editable before it saves. Numbers you’ve touched are numbers you trust — that’s what keeps a log alive past week two.

FAQ

Know exactly what you are joining.

When do I get access?

TypeCal is launching on iPhone soon. The waitlist gets access the moment it goes live — we email you on launch day, nothing before that except the occasional note that matters.

Is it free?

There’s a free trial, so you can prove TypeCal fits your routine before paying anything. Beyond that it’s a paid subscription — we’d love to make it free, but every meal you log runs real AI, and that costs us real money. Charging honestly for it is how the app stays fast and keeps improving (it’s also why we can’t swing student discounts just yet). The price lands around one fancy Starbucks drink a month — the waitlist hears the exact number first.

Which devices does it run on?

iPhone first. Other platforms come later if TypeCal earns it.

How accurate are the AI estimates?

Accurate enough that we publish the numbers. On a leading AI food journal’s own 68-meal benchmark, TypeCal’s estimates averaged 7% off the reference values — theirs averaged 11%. Every meal, hit or miss, is in the comparison tables. And you see every estimate before it counts, so any number is one tap from fixed.

How is this different from Cal AI or MyFitnessPal?

Photo-first apps guess from a picture — and a picture cannot see the oil in the pan, the butter on the toastthe ghee in the dal, the oil in the pan, or how much you actually ate. TypeCal starts from your words, the most honest description of a meal there is, and shows you every assumption before anything counts. No database spelunking, no hidden pricing, and the accuracy claims are benchmarked in public.
