Built After Losing Someone to Diabetes
My grandfather passed away from complications of diabetes. When I started looking for tools that could have helped him, I couldn't find anything that did it all. So I built it — for anyone managing glucose, carbs, insulin, or medication.
Apps that actually understood what it means to count carbs with a CGM on your arm or a meter in your bag, to log insulin or oral medication alongside meals, to find affordable food that won't spike your glucose — none of them existed together in one place.
NutriScan is for the person who was just diagnosed and has no idea where to start. For the Type 1 veteran who's tired of juggling four different apps. For the person managing Type 2 or pre-diabetes who wants to see how meals actually move their numbers. For the family member trying to help someone they love manage this every single day. We're not a general nutrition app with a diabetes filter — we're diabetes-first, from the ground up.
Built with and for people managing Type 1, Type 2, pre-diabetes, and everyday nutrition.
Your logs stay yours. NutriScan Pro is ad-free, and you can export or request deletion of your data at any time.
A Small, Hands-On Team
NutriScan is built by a small team — engineers and researchers who live and breathe the details of day-to-day diabetes management across Type 1, Type 2, and pre-diabetes, not a large company treating diabetes as one feature among many.
How NutriScan Is Different
Most nutrition apps treat every meal the same. NutriScan is built for insulin-dependent and glycemic-conscious workflows alike.
| Generic nutrition apps | NutriScan |
|---|---|
| Logs calories and macros | Estimates carbs from a photo so you can log meals in seconds |
| Built for general wellness | Built for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, from the ground up |
| You do the math yourself | AI does the carb estimation from a photo, voice note, or text |
| One-size-fits-all tracking | Insulin, oral medication, glucose, and movement on one timeline |
We're not a calorie counter with a diabetes label slapped on. Every part of NutriScan — from the AI model to the notifications — was designed around what it actually takes to manage Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes day to day.

Understanding Type 1 & Type 2 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the pancreas stops producing insulin, the hormone that lets the body turn food into energy. It isn't linked to diet or lifestyle, it can develop at any age, and it isn't preventable or curable — people with T1D need insulin for life, delivered by injection or pump.
Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes work differently: the body still makes insulin but doesn't use it well, and management often blends food choices, movement, oral medication, and sometimes insulin. NutriScan supports both paths — carb estimates and glucose context for everyone, with treatment logging for insulin users and medication logging plus glycemic-friendly food guidance for everyone else.
Managing it well means constant decision-making: counting carbs at every meal, adjusting to it, and watching for highs and lows that can happen with little warning. There's no day off. (This is general education, not medical advice — always follow guidance from your endocrinologist or diabetes care team.)
