What they did
The workflow signs up the user with calorie and protein goals. A Gemini-powered agent interprets text, transcribed audio or a photo of the plate, estimates calories and macros, and logs them in a spreadsheet, replying with the day's balance.
How it went
It's a published template; there is no usage data.
Good to know
Photo-based estimates are often off; they work for building a habit, not for a clinical diet.
The prompt
Today I ate: [list of meals with approximate portions]. Estimate the calories and protein for each item, the daily total, and how much is left to reach my goal of [calories] and [protein]. Indicate how uncertain each estimate is.
Replace what is in [brackets]. Prompt written by us from the account, not a literal copy of the source. Do not paste other people’s personal data (privacy laws such as LGPD and GDPR apply).
Summary in our own words. Results as stated in the original account; we have not tested or audited them. Read the source ↗ Case found via agentusecases.ai (Alex Finn); text and prompt rewritten by us. Found a mistake?
