By country
An AI calorie tracker for the food you actually eat.
Most calorie trackers are built on a Western food database, so anything cooked at home or eaten regionally becomes a guessing game. BetterCal has no database to search — you say the meal out loud or type it like a note, and the AI estimates against local ingredients, cooking fats, serving vessels and portion sizes.
India
Roti, dal, sabzi, chai and thali — plus vegetarian and eggetarian diets.
USA
Restaurant portions, packaged food and a database built for exactly this market.
UK
Supermarket meal deals, takeaway curry and portions measured in nothing at all.
Canada
Metric labels, American portions, and a lot of food that spans both.
Australia
Café culture, barbecue, and portion sizes that sit between British and American.
UAE
Arabic, South Asian and Filipino food on the same street, and almost none of it in a Western database.
Pakistan
Roti, salan, biryani and a great deal of ghee that no Western database accounts for.
Bangladesh
Rice, fish curry and mustard oil — a cuisine almost absent from Western food databases.
Singapore
Hawker centres, four cuisines, and dishes that exist nowhere in a US food database.
Malaysia
Nasi lemak, mamak stalls and coconut milk in almost everything.
Indonesia
Nasi goreng, gado-gado, sambal — and fried food that databases consistently underrate.
Philippines
Rice with everything, adobo, and a cuisine almost invisible in Western databases.
Nigeria
Jollof, swallow and palm oil — a cuisine with essentially no database coverage.
South Africa
Braai, pap and bunny chow — plus a Western database that covers about half of it.
How it works
Why the country setting matters.
The same dish name means different things in different places. A curry cooked with a teaspoon of oil and one cooked with three tablespoons of ghee are different foods with the same label, and a single global average serves neither well.
When you log a meal, BetterCal considers your country's actual eating habits before it estimates — which ingredients are typical, what it is usually cooked in, what vessel it is served in, and how big a normal portion is.
Your country is set during onboarding and can be changed at any time in the app.
