Why we built it —
and not just another tracker.

We respect MyFitnessPal, MacroFactor, and Cal AI. We also use them and got tired of them. Here's where MacroScout is genuinely different.

Restaurant Scout

The waiter doesn't
have your macros.
We do.

You opened five tabs to do this. We baked it into one tap. Tell Scout where you are, and it ranks every nearby spot by how well it fits your day — not the other way around.

i.
Live macro fit — every restaurant gets a 0–100 score against the calories and macros you have left today.
ii.
Order picks — open a restaurant, see the 3 menu items that fit best. No more squinting at the menu doing math at the table.
iii.
Filters that matter — high-protein, <800 cal, GLP-1 friendly, vegetarian. Filters built for how you actually eat.

"I built this on a Tuesday because Chipotle made me give up on MFP."
— Dev, founder
Founder note

I lost 40 lbs in 2023. Then I went on vacation and gained twelve back in a week.

Not because I ate badly. Because I had no clue. Every "easy" tracker turned into 10 minutes of database spelunking before the appetizers came. By dessert I'd given up.

So I built MacroScout. One sentence in. Macros out. A list of nearby spots that fit what I have left for the day. No 800,000-item database. No guilt loop.

If you've ever closed a logging app mid-meal and just ordered the queso anyway — this one's for you.

FAQ

The questions you're actually asking.

Don't see yours? Ask the founder directly.

Is the AI accurate?+
Yes — within ~6% on most meals, which beats most humans eyeballing a plate. We tag every parse with a confidence score, and you can adjust portions in two taps if something looks off. We err on slightly higher calorie estimates because under-counting is what trashes goals.
What if my favorite restaurant isn't in Scout?+
Add it once and it's in your library forever. Big chains in the US, Canada, UK, and Australia are already loaded. Independent spots learn from one log — type the bowl, save it, done.
How is this different from MyFitnessPal?+
MFP is a database. We're a coach. MFP makes you do the searching, picking, and quantity math. We turn one sentence into a logged meal. The Restaurant Scout is something MFP just doesn't have at all.
Does it work for GLP-1 / Ozempic users?+
Yep — there's a GLP-1 filter in Scout for high-protein, smaller-portion picks, and the targets engine handles the lower hunger and protein-priority needs of GLP-1 users. We don't make a big deal of it because it works the same for everyone.
Why $4.99 when others charge $10–12?+
Because we'd rather have a million happy users than a hundred thousand resentful ones. The annual price ($2.49/mo equivalent) is what most users land on after the trial. We're a small team and we move fast — if that changes, you keep your price.
What happens after the 7 days?+
Nothing automatic. You'll see a friendly nudge inside the app. If you don't pick a plan, you keep a free read-only history but lose Scout, voice log, and AI parsing. No card on file means no surprise charge.
Android?+
Coming Q3 2026. We started iOS-first because we're three people and one platform with a lot of love beats two with a lot of bugs.

Stop spelling out
"grilled chicken breast,
4 oz, no skin."

Just type the meal. We'll handle the rest. Try MacroScout free for 7 days — and keep eating out.
