Macro Tracker
Protein, Fat, Carbs — From a Photo.
@vustCalBot doesn't stop at a calorie number: every scan estimates protein, fat and carbs too, and /today adds them into a current UTC-day total. The first 3 successful scans are free; later accepted photos debit Balance when sent, with failed paid analyses refunded.
Honest scope
An estimate to track trends, not a scale
Protein, fat and carb grams come from the same photo-based estimate as the calorie count, so they carry the same honest uncertainty — useful for spotting whether today leaned carb-heavy or protein-light, not for hitting a gram target exactly. Every result repeats the same disclaimer: an AI estimate from a photo, not medical or dietary advice.

Photo in, macro grams out — summed daily with /today.
Who reaches for a macro tracker
- Protein-focused eaters
- Caring about protein grams as much as total calories
- Every scan returns protein/fat/carb grams alongside kcal, not calories alone.
- Daily total watchers
- Wanting a running macro total across a full day's meals
- /today sums every scan since UTC midnight into one total.
- Free-tier trackers
- Wanting macro estimates without a subscription
- 3 free scans a day, forever — not-food photos are never charged.
How macro tracking works
- 01
Send a food photo
To @vustCalBot in Telegram — no app, no manual food-database search.
- 02
Get protein/fat/carb grams back
Alongside kcal, dish name, portion assumption and a confidence line.
- 03
Check /today for the daily sum
A running total of every scan since UTC midnight — scans, kcal, and macros.
Track macros from a photo
Open @vustCalBot, send a food photo, get protein/fat/carb grams back — plus /today for the daily total.
Honest scope — estimate, not a scale
Estimate, not lab-grade
Macro grams share the same photo-based uncertainty as the calorie count — useful for spotting trends, not hitting exact targets.
/today is UTC-day only
No weekly view, no editing, no stored photos — just the current day's running total.
Not-food never charged
A photo that isn't food costs nothing on either tier.
Frequently asked questions
Can I track protein, fat and carbs, not just calories, from a photo?
Yes — every scan from @vustCalBot returns protein, fat and carb grams alongside the calorie estimate and dish name, not calories alone.
How do I see my total macros for the day?
Send /today. It sums every scan recorded since UTC midnight into a running total: number of scans, combined calories, and combined protein/fat/carb grams. It only covers the current day — there's no weekly or historical view yet.
How accurate are the macro grams, specifically protein?
They're estimates derived from the same photo the calorie count comes from, so they carry the same honest uncertainty — sauces and hidden fat are common sources of error. The confidence line on each result reflects that. It's built for a general sense of your macro split, not lab-grade precision.
Is macro tracking free, or does it need a subscription?
The first 3 successful scans each UTC day are free. After that, an accepted food photo debits Balance when sent; there is no separate confirmation step. Rejected non-food photos and failed paid analyses are refunded.
Does it store my macro history for trend charts?
No — there's no durable food log beyond the compact numbers /today sums up for the current day. Photos themselves are never stored at all; only the numeric result persists, and only long enough for /today to use it.
Is this dietary advice about hitting specific macro targets?
No. Every result — the welcome message and every scan — repeats the same disclaimer: this is an AI estimate from a photo, not medical or dietary advice. Setting or hitting specific macro targets for a health condition is a job for a professional, not this bot.
Ready when you are
Protein, fat, carbs — from a photo.
First 3 successful scans/day are free; an accepted post-cap photo debits Balance on send. /today adds the current UTC day.
