The problem
One body. Five apps. Zero coherence.
A calorie counter here. A workout logger there. A meal planner you opened once. A coach you never actually message. A streak that resets and you don't even care. The effort is real — the system isn't.

Consistency doesn't break because of willpower. It breaks because of friction — and friction compounds across five different apps.
The solution
One app. Every tool. Actually connected.
PlateStack links what you eat, how you train, how consistent you've been, and what to do next — so the daily decisions get lighter, not harder.
Snap, scan, say it, or search 500K foods — meal logged in seconds
Log sets, reps, and PRs without fumbling between screens
Ask an AI coach that already knows your week — no re-explaining required
Build streaks defended by shields. Add a crew that shows up with you.
Last 3 sessions: 185×8, 185×8, 190×7. You're close to a breakthrough.
Try 190×8 this week. Hit all 8 with clean form → 195 next session.
Weekly volume is up 12%, which is ideal progression.

What you get
Six systems. Actually built.
Every feature listed is live in the app. No roadmap promises, no 'coming soon' placeholders.
No credit card to download. No feature wall after 7 days. No nag screen every 48 hours. Nutrition, workouts, gamification, and crews are yours at $0.
We make money on AI.
Photo scanning, the Coach chat, and the meal plan generator are paid features. That's how the lights stay on. Never upgrade? The core is still yours.
You own your data.
No ads. We don't sell your health data. You can delete everything from inside the app — no support-ticket maze, no 14-step process.
One daily loop.
XP, quests, a streak with shields, and a crew that earns together. Gamification that makes showing up feel worth it — every day.
A day with PlateStack
Six taps. The whole loop.
01
Log a meal
Snap it, scan it, say it, or search it. Calories and macros are in your log before you put the fork down.
02
Hit your macros
A live ring shows exactly what's left for the day. Quick-add or pull from saved meals to close the gap.
03
Train
Pick a workout, hit start, move through sets with a rest timer that runs in the background. No babysitting required.
04
Earn XP
Every meal logged. Every set hit. Every quest cleared. XP adds up — levels climb on a real curve, not a fake one.
05
Ask the Coach
Stuck on progressive overload? No plan for the week? Ask in plain English — the Coach already knows your numbers.
06
Defend the streak
36-hour grace window. Five streak shields. Daily score from S to F. Showing up has real stakes.
Gamification
Showing up pays you back.
A real game system underneath the tracker — not a badge you forget about. XP for every action. Levels on a curve that actually means something. Quests that refresh daily. A streak with shields so one bad day doesn't end everything.
XP for everything
Meals, workouts, protein hit, calorie hit, perfect-day bonus.
13 daily quests
Three new every morning, picked deterministically by date.
5 streak shields
Miss a day? Burn a shield. The chain holds.
Daily score: S to F
Calories, protein, workout, meal count — graded honestly, every day.

Keep going
Always on
The app coaches you without being asked.
You don't have to open the AI chat to get guidance. PlateStack watches your day and surfaces the right nudge at the right moment — on the home screen, not in a notification.
Time-based · end of day
When: You haven't logged dinner yet
"Log dinner now — you're 400 calories under today's goal."
Goal proximity · near-miss alert
When: You're close to your protein goal
"You're 12g of protein away from hitting your target. One more snack does it."
Streak protection · grace window
When: Your streak is at risk
"Log any meal or workout in the next 4 hours to keep your 23-day streak alive."
Coaching nudges are free. No AI subscription required — these run on your data, not a chat model.

AI Coach
A coach that knows your week before you say a word.
Powered by Claude. Every time you start a chat, it already has your goals, diet, streak, and last few training sessions in context. You don't re-explain your situation — you just ask.
Answers stream in real time — no spinning, no waiting
Knows your goals, diet, streak, and recent training automatically
Builds a 7-day meal plan around your actual macro targets
Progressive-overload guidance based on your real lifts — not averages
Crews are small, invite-only groups. The crew streak earns when 70% of you log activity — so one bad day from one person doesn't sink everyone. Cheers and daily-capped nudges keep it human, not noisy.
The full nutrition, workout, and gamification stack is free — permanently. Not a trial. Premium adds the AI side. Lifetime is one payment, hard-capped at 1,000.

What is PlateStack?
PlateStack is the one app that does what most people use five apps for: nutrition tracking, workout logging, an AI coach, daily quests and streaks, and crew accountability — all connected, all in one place. The full core is free. AI features (photo scanning, coach chat, meal planning) are on the paid tiers. Launching on iOS and Android.
Is PlateStack a calorie tracker?
Yes — and more. Calorie tracking is one of four ways to log food: AI photo scan, voice, barcode, or search across 500,000+ foods. PlateStack also tracks macros (protein, carbs, fat), workouts, body weight, body fat %, measurements, progress photos, and a daily score from S to F.
Does PlateStack track workouts?
Yes. PlateStack logs strength training (sets, reps, weight) with a 500+ exercise library and automatic personal-record detection, and cardio (duration, distance, calories). It includes a built-in rest timer and tracks volume and PR trends over time. Workout tracking is included on every tier — including free.
Does PlateStack use AI?
Yes, in three optional ways. (1) AI photo scan turns a meal photo into calories and macros. (2) The AI Coach is a streaming chat — powered by Claude (Anthropic) — that has your profile, diet, streak, and recent training in context. (3) The AI meal-plan generator builds a 7-day plan around your calorie and macro targets in one tap. AI features are part of paid tiers; manual logging stays free.
Can PlateStack help with macros?
Yes. Set custom calorie and macro targets — or pick from six diet presets (standard, keto, low-carb, high-protein, vegan, paleo). Every food entry tallies against your goals. A live ring on the dashboard shows what's left for the day, and a daily score grades how the day landed.
Does PlateStack have meal planning?
Yes — through the AI 7-day meal plan generator. One tap and the AI Coach builds a week of meals around your calorie and macro targets, respecting your diet preset. Edit any meal, swap any day, save the plan to your library. Meal planning is included with Full Premium and Lifetime. Grocery integrations are on the roadmap.
Does PlateStack have social accountability?
Yes — through Crews. Create or join a small invite-only group, share a 6-character code (PS-XXXXXX), and earn a crew streak when at least 70% of your crew logs activity each day. Cheers and daily-capped nudges keep accountability human, not noisy. Crews are included on every tier.
Is PlateStack free?
Yes. Permanently — not a 7-day trial, not a "free" plan that locks you out of everything useful on day 8. Nutrition logging, workout tracking, habit tracking, the 500K-food database, barcode scanner, daily quests, levels, streaks, achievements, body metrics, and crews are all $0. The AI side (Coach chat, photo scanning, meal plans) is where paid starts — Full Premium at $9.99/month, or Lifetime from $129.
Is PlateStack available on iOS and Android?
PlateStack is launching on the App Store and Google Play. Drop your email on the early-access page and we'll send a single message the day it goes live on both stores.
How do I delete my PlateStack account?
From inside the app: Settings → Account → Delete account. From outside the app: visit platestackapp.com/delete-account and follow the steps, or email [email protected] from the address tied to your account. All your data is permanently purged within 30 days.
One app. Every tool.
Join the waitlist. We'll send one email when it goes live — not a drip campaign, not a newsletter, just a single "it's here."
