Eating healthier — without the hassle
omnomnom includes a built-in nutritional coach that tracks
39 macro and micro-nutrients, displayed as intuitive progress bars — like health bars in a video game. You see at a glance where you stand for each nutrient.
The coach provides:
- A 30-day rolling nutritional average to understand real eating patterns
- A unique nutritional report after 7 days: omnomnom analyzes your average intake and generates a personalized report showing which nutrients you eat below the reference intake and which above the upper safety limit. For each low intake, it suggests the top foods richest in that nutrient to incorporate into your diet. For high intake, it identifies which foods to reduce. It also explains what each nutrient does and why it matters. No miracle solutions, no fad diet nonsense — just practical, dietitian-grade guidance based on your actual eating habits.
- Nutritional goals adapted to your objective (weight loss, muscle gain, general health) and to dietary conditions
- Sync with Apple Health and Google Health
- Tools to understand your diet without falling for "miracle diet" scams
The nutritional data and recommendations have been designed and verified in collaboration with dietitians.
"With omnomnom you take control over the way you eat. You'll never be fooled by a 'miracle diet' again!"

Discovering creators and traditional recipes
omnomnom hosts recipes from popular culinary creators already well-known on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. The platform also curates traditional reference recipes and recipes from professional Chef training in France — verified for authenticity, proper techniques, proper ingredients, no shortcuts.
Ethics and privacy
omnomnom is built on strong ethical principles:
- No data sold to third parties — no cookie consent popup because there is nothing to consent to
- All data hosted in the EU
- No dark patterns — no trick trials, no surprise charges, no manipulative UI
- No food lobby influence — omnomnom will never promote miracle diets or food guru culture
- 100% financially independent — no venture capital, no corporate investors. The app serves users, not shareholders.
- Transparent and reliable — stable app, no crashes, no surprise logouts
- Built by real engineers, not by AI — many recent apps in the food/nutrition space are entirely generated by AI, rely heavily on marketing and false promises, and are unable to scale or provide enough security, stability, and accuracy to be trusted. omnomnom is hand-crafted by a dedicated team of 12 with years of domain expertise.
"We dream of a world where information about what we eat is transparent, accessible and easy to understand."
