Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about tracking calories on WhatsApp with Kcaly AI.

General

Kcaly AI is an AI-powered calorie and macro tracker that works entirely through WhatsApp. Send a photo, text, or voice message of your meal, and AI calculates calories, protein, fat, carbs, and the Insulin Load Score in seconds. No app to download — it works in the WhatsApp chat you already use.

No. Kcaly AI works through WhatsApp, which you already have. Your personal nutrition dashboard is a web app you access from any browser. No app store download needed.

Kcaly AI works in any country where WhatsApp is available. Since everything runs through WhatsApp and the web, there are no geographic restrictions.

Kcaly AI supports 9 languages: English, Hebrew, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Dutch. The AI understands food descriptions in all these languages and responds in your preferred language.

How It Works

Open WhatsApp, go to your Kcaly AI chat, and send your meal in one of three ways: take a photo of your food, type what you ate (e.g., 'grilled chicken with rice'), or record a voice message describing your meal. AI responds within seconds with a full nutritional breakdown.

Yes. Send a photo of a packaged product's barcode or front label, and AI matches it to exact nutrition label data from a global food database. No manual searching required.

Yes. Send a restaurant menu photo to the WhatsApp chat, and AI analyzes every option against your goals, what you've already eaten today, and your remaining daily targets. It then recommends the best dishes for you.

You can edit or delete any meal from the current week through your web dashboard. Go to your meal history, tap the meal you want to modify, and use the edit or delete options.

Accuracy & Data

Kcaly AI uses a hybrid approach for high accuracy: AI identifies food items from your photo or text, then matches them against the USDA FoodData Central database for lab-verified per-100g nutrition values. Only portion sizes are estimated by AI, making the analysis significantly more accurate than pure AI estimation.

Yes. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Meal photos are processed for analysis only. Your personal information is never sold or shared with third parties. We only use your data to provide the nutrition tracking service. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

The Insulin Load Score is a nutritional metric that ranks foods by their estimated insulin response. Two foods with identical calories can have very different Insulin Load Scores, helping you choose foods with lower metabolic impact. It's similar to a glycemic index but more comprehensive.
