For digital health and chronic condition programmes
Keep members of your digital health or GLP-1 app on plan between sessions.
BiteRight helps a digital health programme keep members on plan between coaching sessions. Members log a meal in your app with a photo, a voice note or a line of text, the BiteRight API returns the recognised foods and nutrient estimates, and your app alerts them when the day goes past a sugar, carbohydrate or fat limit or falls short of a protein minimum. Your coaches see real meals instead of guesses, and your app keeps its own design.

Why members drop off food logging
Programmes for diabetes, IBS, weight or GLP-1 medication depend on what members eat, but manual food logging is tedious, so entries thin out after the first few weeks and coaches lose sight of the day-to-day.
A photo or a short voice note is quicker than searching a food database, and an alert when a limit is crossed gives members a reason to log. Building recognition, nutrient data and rules yourself is a long project; the BiteRight API adds them behind your own screens.
How it works, step by step.
Example: Example Care, a fictional GLP-1 support app.
- Step 1
The programme sets targets
A member on a GLP-1 medication gets a daily protein minimum and a daily fat maximum agreed with their care team.
- Step 2
The member logs dinner by voice
They say "grilled chicken, rice and a small salad" into the app they already use for check-ins.
- Step 3
BiteRight returns the estimates
The API recognises the foods and returns estimated portions, protein, carbohydrate, fat and sugar.
- Step 4
The app nudges before bedtime
The day's protein is still under the minimum, so the app tells the member, and their coach can follow up.

What BiteRight does not do.
- Nutrient values are estimates, not measurements. Your clinical team decides how they are used.
- BiteRight does not diagnose, treat or prescribe, and does not give medication advice. Limits should be agreed with a qualified clinician.
- BiteRight does not connect to glucose monitors or phone health platforms today.
Questions we hear.
Can we use BiteRight inside our own app?
Yes. Your app sends the meal photo, voice note or text to the BiteRight API and shows the foods, nutrients and alerts in its own design.
Which limits can we set?
Daily maximums for sugar, carbohydrate and fat and a daily minimum for protein. Your organisation, a clinician or the member can set them, and the API flags the day that crosses one.
Does it work for GLP-1 programmes?
Yes, as a food logging and target tool. A programme might set a daily protein minimum and a fat maximum and remind members when a day falls short. BiteRight does not give medication advice.
Do you integrate with glucose monitors or phone health apps?
Not today. BiteRight provides meal data through its API, and your app can show it alongside data you already collect.
Where is member data hosted?
BiteRight runs on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosting can be regional, and a data processing agreement (DPA) is available for business customers.
How do we get access?
The API is available to approved partners. Request a demo and the team will discuss your programme, data requirements and sandbox access.
