Food tracking almost always fails for the same reason: logging costs too much. Thirty seconds a meal, three meals a day, and AI always comes at a price.
Hexavore is built around a single aim: let anyone log a meal quickly, using whatever AI they choose to speed it up.
FOUR WAYS TO LOG A MEAL
Scan a barcode. The product comes from Open Food Facts. Scanned once, it stays available with no connection.
Photograph the plate. An AI model recognises the foods and their quantities; the nutrition values come from public databases, not from its memory.
Search for a food. 3,484 foods from the French ANSES CIQUAL table, offline, from the second letter typed. Accents are ignored on both sides.
Describe it in a sentence. "Two eggs, a slice of bread and a glass of orange juice."
SIX COUNTERS, ONE FIGURE
Calories, protein, carbs, sugars, fat, fibre. The hexagon the app is named after shows all six at a glance: one quarter per counter, filled from the centre, the outline marking the day's target.
Touch a quarter and it says what filled it, food by food.
TARGETS THAT ARE CALCULATED, THEN YOURS TO ADJUST
Age, height, weight, activity level, target weight and horizon: six daily targets calculated, every one of them editable by hand at any time.
Each week your real weight is compared with the intended trajectory. The app suggests an adjustment; you decide.
A HISTORY THAT READS
A calendar where every day carries how close it came to its six targets. Any past day can be read and corrected. The weight log draws the real trend beneath the raw readings.
WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
No account. No server. No ads. No subscription. No telemetry.
Everything is stored on your phone. You export the lot to a readable file whenever you want, and you erase everything in one gesture.
The AI is optional. If you use it, the request leaves your phone with your own key, straight to the provider you chose: the project never sees it. Without a key, the other three ways of logging still work.
FREE SOFTWARE, WITH SOURCES
The code is public, under the GPL-3.0 licence. The nutrition values come from two open sources, credited inside the app:
CIQUAL 2025 table by ANSES, under Licence Ouverte Etalab 2.0
Open Food Facts, by its contributors, under the ODbL 1.0 licence
Hexavore is a personal tracking tool. It is not a medical device and it does not replace the advice of a health professional.
Six counters, not just calories. No account, no ads, no tracking.
