How it works
Calorie tracking that stays out of your way.
Most people quit calorie counting because logging is a chore. Forkmate lets you write the meal the way you would say it.
The numbers are honest.
Every food on the plate names where its numbers came from. A close match is labelled as one, and when nothing matches, the AI’s estimate is labelled Estimate, never passed off as a database figure.
Showing up is what counts.
No streaks to break and no leaderboards. Log whenever you get to it and see your calories and macros for the day.
AI calorie tracking
Or just tell your AI.
Forkmate is a remote MCP server. It works inside Claude and Cursor, and in ChatGPT where your plan allows custom connectors. Meals you log there land in the same diary as the app. Send a photo of your plate and your assistant works out the foods itself: that read is an estimate, labelled as one in your diary, and you can edit it.

- Tell it what you ateSay it in the chat you already have open, or send a photo of your plate. Your assistant logs it through Forkmate.

Forkmate vs typical food trackers
Most trackers bolt “AI” onto photo scanning inside their own app. Forkmate logs from a sentence in its app, or from whatever you tell or show the assistant you already use, and shows where every number came from.
| Capability | Forkmate | Typical food trackers |
|---|---|---|
| How you log | Type a sentence in the app, or tell your AI in plain words or send it a photo | In-app photo scan or manual database search |
| Where you log | The web app, or the AI client you already use | Locked inside one company’s app |
| What it costs to log | Free to log, with no credit card | Core logging often behind a paywall |
| Where the numbers come from | Every food names where its numbers came from, and an AI estimate is labelled Estimate | Source not always shown |
“Typical food trackers” describes the common pattern across mainstream calorie apps, checked September 23, 2026; capabilities vary by product, plan, platform and country.

How to fuel for a PR on your local route, with Claude, Strava and Forkmate
Fuel a personal best on your usual loop: Claude reads past efforts via Strava's connector and your Forkmate food log, then plans the fuel. Prompts inside.
Is Forkmate really free?
Yes. Everything Forkmate does is free, with no credit card: logging, the diary, barcode scanning, MyFitnessPal import and data export. There are no ads.
Does Forkmate work with ChatGPT and Claude?
Yes. Connect Forkmate once, then tell your assistant what you ate. Claude and Cursor support it, and ChatGPT does where your plan allows custom connectors. You don't need your own AI assistant to use the web app.
How accurate are the calorie and macro numbers?
They are estimates, like every tracker’s. Forkmate matches foods against USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts and restaurants’ published figures, and names each number’s source. A close match is labelled as one; when nothing matches, our AI estimates the food and labels it Estimate, so you can check or change it. Weigh food if you need precision. Forkmate is not medical advice.
Can I import my MyFitnessPal history?
Yes. Request MyFitnessPal’s free Download My Data export (no Premium needed) and drop the file into Forkmate’s importer. Your calories and macros come across exactly as you logged them.
Can I log from a photo?
Yes, through your AI assistant, not in the Forkmate app itself. Send a photo of your plate to Claude, or ChatGPT where your plan allows custom connectors, and it logs the foods through Forkmate. The read is an estimate, labelled as one in your diary, and you can edit it.
Is my food diary private?
Yes. Your diary belongs to your account, and we never sell your data or use it for advertising. The meals you type are read by our AI provider and kept for up to a year to improve matching; see the Privacy Policy. You can export it or delete your account anytime from Settings.
Do I need to download an app?
No. Forkmate runs in your browser on any phone or computer. To keep it one tap away, choose Add to Home Screen in Safari or Chrome.
