How restaurant meal tracking works
-
01 · Find
Search a supported restaurant
Browse available meals before ordering. If a menu is not available, switch to a photo, description, barcode, or manual entry. AI analysis requires Trayly Pro.
-
02 · Compare
Compare with Trayly Pro
Compare protein, carbohydrates, fat, and how restaurant meals fit your personal daily goals—not just a single calorie number.
-
03 · Review
Check the estimate
Restaurant recipes and portions vary. Check the serving and nutrition values against what you know about the meal before saving.
-
04 · Track
Save it to your day
Add the reviewed meal to your history and follow calories and macros against your personal targets.
What the estimate means
Useful guidance, not a lab result.
Menu descriptions and meal photos do not reveal every ingredient, cooking method, or exact portion weight. Trayly uses the available information to estimate nutrition and lets you review the result. For allergies, medical conditions, or dietary decisions, use official restaurant information and professional advice rather than an AI estimate alone.
| Input | Best used for | What to review |
|---|---|---|
| Restaurant menu | Planning before ordering | Current recipe and serving size |
| Meal photo | A served dish without a listing | Hidden ingredients and portion size |
| Text description | Mixed or customized meals (AI analysis requires Pro) | Missing toppings, sauces, and drinks |
| Barcode or label | Packaged food (AI label analysis requires Pro) | Servings consumed |

Restaurant calorie tracking FAQ
-
What is a restaurant calorie tracker?
A restaurant calorie tracker helps you estimate and record calories and macros for meals eaten away from home. Trayly combines supported restaurant menu search with photo, text, barcode, and manual logging. AI-assisted meal and nutrition-label analysis requires Trayly Pro. -
Can Trayly find calories for any restaurant meal?
