Snap a photo, get the carb count in seconds. Built by a T1, for anyone tired of counting carbs the hard way. Your first week of Pro is free. No account needed. Snap a photo of your plate and see the carbs in each item in seconds, checked against USDA FoodData Central. No weighing, no barcode hunting, no food diary. Built by a Type 1 diabetic, for anyone tired of counting carbs the hard way. I have counted carbs at every meal for years. Weighing food, squinting at labels, guessing at a restaurant plate while the food got cold. I built CarbZen so I could point my phone at a meal and get a real number back, fast. WAYS TO SCAN - Photo, Describe, or Barcode for a fast carb count - Label (Pro): read the carbs off a nutrition label - Recipe (Pro): carbs per serving from a recipe or ingredient list WHAT YOU GET FREE - A real carb count on every scan, never a locked preview - Net carbs when you want them, with fiber subtracted - The carbs broken out per item, so a mixed plate is not one mystery number - Your scan history and photos saved on your phone - Your first week comes with unlimited scans. After that you keep 30 full scans every month, free, for as long as you use the app. WHY THE NUMBER IS WORTH TRUSTING Most carb apps hand you whatever the AI guessed and stop there. CarbZen checks its estimates against USDA FoodData Central, the public nutrition database dietitians use. When the photo estimate and the USDA value disagree, you see both and pick the one that fits your plate. You stay in control of the count. CARBZEN PRO Pro unlocks the deeper tools, and it begins with a free trial when you are eligible: - Full macros per item: protein, fat, fiber, and calories - A clean PDF report you can hand to your dietitian or care team - Apple Health sync for your carbs and calories - Unlimited scans, a daily carb goal, weekly trends, and meal notes - Repeat a past meal with one swipe WHO IT IS FOR People with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes who track the carbs in their meals. People with prediabetes keeping an eye on what they eat. People following keto, low carb, or an eating plan from a doctor or dietitian. Parents and partners cooking for someone who counts carbs. WHAT IT IS NOT CarbZen gives carb estimates for general information only. It is not a medical device, and it does not replace a glucose monitor, a dietitian, or your care team. Estimates can be wrong. Always confirm meal and dosing decisions with your clinician before you act on them. YOUR PRIVACY No account. No email. No food diary to fill out. Your scan history lives on your phone, with optional iCloud backup you turn on yourself. To estimate carbs, a photo is sent securely for analysis and is not stored after the count comes back. We use privacy respecting analytics and crash reporting to keep the app working, and we never sell your data. Full details at carbzen.app/privacy.
