A free AI calorie tracker that actually lets you track for free.

Nommie is a free AI calorie tracker: 5 photo scans a day, calorie and macro totals, and daily tracking on the free plan. You only pay if you want extras like unlimited scans, long-term history or Apple Health sync.

Nommie, the friendly squirrel mascot, waving hello

Most AI calorie trackers call themselves free, then gate the AI part behind a subscription. Nommie takes the opposite approach: 5 photo scans a day and daily calorie and macro totals are on the free plan. Premium adds unlimited scans, extended history, Apple Health integration, and custom macro targets, but the tool you came for isn't locked.

What makes Nommie different

Photo scans, free every day

Take a picture of any meal and get calories and macros back. 5 free photo scans a day, no trial that expires in seven days, no 'upgrade to see results.'

Full macro breakdown

Protein, carbs, fat, fiber, and sugar for every logged meal, plus rolled-up daily totals — all on the free plan.

Clear about premium

Paid features are extended meal history, Apple Health sync, custom macro targets, and advanced analytics. They're useful, but optional.

No account wall

You can start logging before creating an account. When you do sign up, it's email or Apple — no payment method required.

The phrase 'free AI calorie tracker' is doing a lot of work in most app stores. Competitors will advertise AI photo logging, then limit you to five scans a week on the free tier, or put the entire camera feature behind a yearly subscription. Nommie's free plan is built to be actually usable for daily tracking — not a demo that exists to frustrate you into paying.

That's possible because the costs that matter — model inference, image processing, storage — don't scale as brutally as the legacy tracker economics suggest. We keep the core loop free and charge for the things a committed user genuinely benefits from: years of history rather than weeks, deeper integration with Apple Health, and configurable targets for people cutting, bulking, or working with a specific macro ratio.

If you're comparing free AI calorie trackers, the honest check is this: can you log meals from a photo, see your daily calorie total, and break down macros every day without paying? On Nommie, yes, with 5 free photo scans a day. The paid plan exists for people who want more from the data, not for people who want to use the app at all.

Frequently asked questions

Is Nommie's AI calorie tracker actually free?+

Yes. Photo-based meal logging, calorie and macro tracking, and daily totals are all on the free plan, with 5 AI photo scans a day. Premium features like unlimited scans, extended history, Apple Health sync, and custom macro targets are a paid upgrade, but the core product isn't locked.

What's the difference between free and premium?+

Free covers daily photo scans (up to 5 a day), AI nutritionist chats (up to 3 a day), calorie and macro breakdowns, weekly history, and basic targets. Premium adds unlimited scans and chats, unlimited meal history, Apple Health integration, custom macro ratios, advanced weekly and monthly analytics, and priority access to new features.

Do I need a credit card to sign up?+

No. You can sign up with email or Apple and use the free plan indefinitely without entering a payment method. If you decide to upgrade later, you add payment at that point — not upfront.

How is this different from free tiers on other AI calorie apps?+

Some competitors give you only a few AI photo scans a week on their free tier, or disable the camera feature entirely. Nommie's free plan includes 5 AI photo scans every day, so the feature you downloaded the app for is available without paying. Pro removes the daily limit.
