Is there an app that tells me what to eat to hit my protein goal?

Protein Buddy does. Its assistant reads the grams you still need today and answers with one specific food or meal for that number, chosen around how you eat and what is sold where you live, then prepares the log for it. You can ask again for something smaller, colder, faster or cheaper until the answer fits.

Does the assistant know what I already logged today?

Yes. Every message carries your goal, today's entries, the grams you still need and the ten days before today, so you never have to tell it where you are. Change your weight or your diet style in Settings and the next message already knows.

Can the assistant log the food for me?

Yes. When you choose something it prepares a log card with the name and the grams filled in, and one tap writes it into your day. The entry behaves like any other: you can edit it, move it to another day or delete it.

Can it correct a meal I logged wrong?

Yes, for today and the ten days before it. Say that the portion was smaller, that the number was wrong, or that the dish had a different name, and it shows the new values over the old ones. The entry changes only when you tap Save. Entries imported from Apple Health or Health Connect stay locked, as they are everywhere else in the app.

Is the assistant free?

Talking to it is free, including reaching a human on our team. The actions that do work for you, a prepared log, a food estimate, a photo read or a ranked menu, have a free allowance per install, and after that they are part of our community.

What language does the assistant answer in?

The one you write in. The app is translated into 31 languages, including Arabic and Hebrew with a right to left layout, and the assistant answers in the language of your message using your own units.

The assistant in the app

Ask what to eat. It answers for today.

Protein Buddy has an assistant built into the app. It already knows your daily protein goal, what you have logged today and what you ate over the last ten days, so you can ask what to eat for the grams you still need and get one specific answer instead of a list of foods. Pick it and the assistant prepares the log, so nothing has to be typed twice.

Protein Buddy 40g left today

Out for sushi tonight. What should I order for protein?

Skip the rolls: salmon sashimi with a side of edamame is about 40g, and no rice to fill you up. Send me the menu and I'll rank the rest.

Three messages, and it is in your day

Say what the moment is
Out for sushi, five minutes before a meeting, no appetite at all. You do not have to describe your goal or your diet, because the app already sends them with every message.
Get one idea you can act on
Not a list of the same five foods. One realistic choice with the grams to expect, picked from what is actually sold where you are and from what fits the rest of your day.
Log it with one tap
The assistant prepares a log card with the name and the grams filled in. Tap it and the entry lands in your day, where you can still edit or delete it like any other.

What makes the answer yours

It answers for today, not in general

Every message carries a fresh picture of your day, read from your phone. That is why the answer changes at 9 in the morning and at 9 at night, and why it never asks you to repeat yourself.

Your daily goal and the grams you still need
Everything you have logged today, and the ten days before it
Your profile: how you eat, how you train, what you are working toward
Your region and time zone, so the food it names is food you can buy
No location tracking: it never claims a restaurant is nearby

It can fix what is already logged

Tell it the salad was 25g and not 35, or that you only ate half the bowl, and it shows the correction over the old entry. Nothing changes until you tap Save, and the time and the day stay where they were.

Photos, menus and your voice

Send a photo of your plate and it reads the protein. Send a photo of a menu and it ranks what is on it for the protein you have left, the same ranking Protein Scout does on its own screen. Tap the microphone and speak the message instead of typing it.

Asking costs nothing

The conversation is free. You can ask anything, get an answer, and reach a human on our team without spending anything. What is metered is the work: a log card prepared for you, a food estimate, a photo read, a menu ranked. Those come with a free allowance, and after that they are part of our community.
