QBod is an integrated tracking and coaching system, not a chatbot that connects to other apps. Key differences:

• Native data: QBod is your nutrition tracker, workout logger, and recovery monitor. Your AI coach sees everything natively, not imported from separate apps.
• Proactive coaching: QBod sends you personalized daily messages based on your actual data. It doesn't wait for you to ask questions.
• Cross-domain intelligence: Your coach understands how yesterday's sleep affects today's workout, or how this week's protein intake relates to your strength progress. This requires integrated data, not app connections.
• Structured guidance: QBod provides specific, actionable recommendations (daily targets, workout plans, weekly priorities), not open-ended conversations.

Think of it this way: AI chatbots can answer questions about health data you give them. QBod is the health data, and proactively coaches you based on it.

Yes. QBod's coaching recommendations are designed to align with guidelines from recognized health and fitness organizations:

• Nutrition: Protein timing and macro distribution guidance informed by International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) position stands
• Fitness: Activity recommendations aligned with American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelines; progressive overload principles informed by National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) standards
• Recovery: Sleep architecture targets informed by American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) recommendations
• Vitals: Blood pressure and glucose tracking uses clinical categories from American Heart Association (AHA) and American Diabetes Association (ADA)

Important: QBod provides educational information and tracking tools. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. All health decisions should be made in consultation with qualified healthcare professionals.

Cross-domain intelligence means your AI coach analyzes patterns across nutrition, fitness, and recovery, not just within each area. Examples:

• Sleep → Performance: "Your HRV is lower on days following less than 6 hours of sleep. Consider prioritizing rest tonight."
• Nutrition → Recovery: "On days you hit your protein target, your next-day energy ratings are 23% higher."
• Stress → Cascade: "High stress days correlate with reduced sleep quality, lower HRV, and decreased protein intake for you."

This analysis requires seeing all your data in one system. Apps that connect separate tools can't reliably identify these patterns.

Your data security is foundational to QBod:

• Encryption: All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
• Row-level security: Database policies ensure you can only access your own data. Even our own systems can't access user data without explicit authorization.
• No data sales: We never sell your personal information to third parties
• AI processing: Your data is processed to generate personalized insights but is not used to train foundation AI models
• Data portability: You can export or delete your data at any time

For complete details, see our Privacy Policy and Security page.

Separate apps create data silos. Your calorie tracker doesn't know you trained legs yesterday. Your workout app doesn't know you're under on protein. Your coaching program doesn't see either.

QBod connects these dots:

• Your Q-Score reflects execution across nutrition, fitness, and recovery, weighted to your specific goal
• Daily coaching messages reference what you actually logged, not generic advice
• Weekly insights identify cross-domain patterns you'd never see in separate apps
• Goal progress calculations factor in all relevant data, not just one metric

The result: coaching that's specific to your life, updated daily, without paying for multiple subscriptions.

QBod is an AI-powered fitness and nutrition platform designed to help you track your health in one place. Instead of juggling separate apps for food logging, workouts, and coaching, QBod brings everything together with intelligent features that adapt to your goals.

The app includes nutrition tracking, workout generation, progress analytics, and an AI coach, all powered by a simple credit system.

QBod is designed for adults who want a straightforward way to track nutrition and fitness. Whether you're focused on building strength, improving cardiovascular health, managing body composition, or simply maintaining healthy habits, the app adapts to your personal goals.

Note: QBod is an informational tool and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any fitness or nutrition program.

Yes. QBod includes features designed to support users at all experience levels:

• Exercise library with video demonstrations for proper form
• AI-generated workouts that match your available equipment and experience
• Multiple food logging options from simple photo capture to detailed manual entry
• AI Coach available to answer questions about nutrition and exercise

If you're new to fitness tracking, we recommend starting with the AI Coach to get oriented.

QBod is an integrated coaching system, not just a tracking app. Key differences:

• Unified data: Your nutrition, workouts, and recovery live in one system. Your AI coach sees everything natively — not fragments imported from other apps.
• Proactive coaching: QBod sends 6 personalized daily messages based on your actual data. It doesn't wait for you to ask.
• Cross-domain intelligence: See how sleep affects performance, how protein intake relates to recovery, how stress impacts your progress. One system, full picture.
• Research-informed guidance: Recommendations designed to align with guidelines from recognized organizations (ISSN, ACSM, NSCA, AASM).
• Flexible logging: Voice, photo, barcode, or manual — choose what works for you.

For more details on our approach, see our AI Transparency page.

To log food using a photo:

• Tap the + icon next to the search bar
• Select Camera (to take a photo) or Image Upload (to select from your camera roll)
• The AI will analyze the image and identify foods with estimated portions

Photo analysis costs 5 credits per use. For best results, ensure good lighting and capture all items in the frame.

Note: AI-estimated nutritional values are approximations. For precise tracking, consider verifying with nutrition labels or manual entry.

Credits are the currency for QBod's AI-powered features. All AI features draw from a single monthly credit pool. Different actions cost different amounts based on their complexity.

Your monthly credit allowance refreshes at the beginning of each billing cycle.

Every tier includes full access to all QBod features. The primary difference is how many AI credits you receive each month:

Premium bonus: Coaching Insights and personalized AI analysis snippets displayed throughout your analytics and progress charts.

Your subscription includes a monthly credit allowance that refreshes with each billing cycle. When your subscription renews, your credit balance resets to your tier's full allocation.

When your credits reach zero, AI-powered features become temporarily unavailable until your next billing cycle or until you upgrade to a higher tier.

You can still use these features without credits:

• Manual food search and logging
• Barcode scanning
• Exercise library and workout tracking
• Progress tracking and charts
• Body measurements logging

Your credit balance is displayed in the app's Profile screen. You'll see a Credits card showing:

• Recent activity log

Your AI Coach is a 24/7 fitness and nutrition assistant that learns your habits, preferences, and goals. It can:

• Answer questions about nutrition and exercise
• Provide personalized recommendations
• Help you troubleshoot plateaus
• Offer motivation and accountability
• Suggest meal ideas based on your macros

Each message to the AI Coach costs 10 credits. The coach maintains conversation history so it remembers your previous discussions.

The weekly check-in is a comprehensive AI-powered review of your progress. Each week, QBod analyzes:

• Your nutrition adherence
• Workout consistency
• Progress toward your goals
• Trends and patterns

You'll receive personalized insights and recommendations for the upcoming week. Weekly check-ins cost 25 credits.

QBod includes a curated library of over 1,000 recipes spanning 12 categories and 6+ cuisines. Every recipe comes with full macro breakdowns (calories, protein, carbs, fat) and goal-based tags like high-protein, fat-loss-friendly, meal-prep-friendly, budget-friendly, pre-workout, post-workout, kid-friendly, one-pan, and no-cook.

Yes! Browsing all 1,000+ recipes is completely free. Meal planning and grocery list generation are also free. AI-powered recipe suggestions and personalized meal recommendations use credits.

Browse the recipe library, add recipes to your weekly meal plan, and QBod calculates whether your planned meals align with your macro targets — before you cook. When you're ready, generate a grocery list with one tap and log planned meals instantly.

QBod uses a severity-graded allergen system — unique in the industry. Set each allergen as mild or severe. Severe allergens are completely excluded from search results. Mild allergens are flagged with a visible warning so you can make informed decisions. Set your allergens once in Profile and they apply everywhere.

Your meal plan is connected to your nutrition targets. As you add recipes to your weekly plan, QBod shows whether your planned meals hit your daily macros in real-time. Suggestions adapt based on whether your goal is fat loss, muscle gain, body recomposition, or maintenance.

Once you've built a meal plan, tap "Generate Grocery List" to compile all ingredients. The list is organized by grocery section, duplicate ingredients are consolidated automatically, and you can check off items as you shop. A budget-friendly filter highlights meals under $3 per serving.

Yes. QBod's meal planning is fasting-aware — it respects your eating windows when scheduling meals. If you use intermittent fasting, your planned meals will be placed within your eating window automatically.

Absolutely! In addition to the 1,000+ curated library, you can create and save your own recipes in the Cookbook. Add ingredients, set serving sizes, and QBod calculates the nutrition per serving automatically. See our Cookbook & Meal Planning Guide for step-by-step instructions.
