AI estimates
How should you correct AI food estimates without counting grams?
AI food estimates are useful starting points, but mixed dishes, sauces, and portions are never perfectly obvious from a photo or short text description.
Short answer
MellowBite uses AI as an estimate helper. After a photo or text estimate, the user can adjust the result with broad correction choices instead of editing exact grams.
Key takeaways
- AI estimates should be treated as ranges, not perfect answers.
- Simple correction keeps users in control without turning the app into a spreadsheet.
- The goal is a useful daily state, not exact nutrition analysis.
Why can AI food estimates be wrong?
AI food estimates can be wrong because photos may not show depth, sauces, cooking oil, hidden ingredients, or exact portion size.
How does MellowBite make correction simpler?
MellowBite lets users adjust estimates with Less, About Right, or More. This keeps correction fast and avoids asking users to count every gram.
What does correction change?
Correction changes the estimate enough to keep the daily state useful. It does not turn the estimate into a medical or laboratory-grade nutrition result.
