What is PlateStack?
PlateStack is the AI fitness operating system. It combines nutrition tracking, workout logging, an AI coach, gamification (XP, levels, streaks, daily quests), and crew-based accountability into one mobile app. The free tier covers the core; premium tiers add AI features. PlateStack is 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 — and forever. The free tier includes complete nutrition logging, workout tracking, the 500K-food database, the barcode scanner, daily quests, levels, streaks, achievements, body metrics, and crews. Premium tiers ($6.99/mo Fitness AI; $9.99/mo Full Premium; one-time Lifetime capped at 1,000 licenses) add the AI features.
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 support@platestackapp.com from the address tied to your account. All your data is permanently purged within 30 days.
What permissions does the app ask for?
Camera (for the barcode scanner, AI food scanning, and progress photos), microphone (only when you tap the mic to log by voice), notifications (only if you turn on reminders), and biometrics (only if you opt into Face ID or fingerprint sign-in). All optional except a network connection.
Does the app work offline?
You can browse recent logs and your local cache offline. AI photo scanning, the Coach chat, and the meal-plan generator need a connection because they call models in real time. Manual logging and barcode scanning work offline.
How accurate is the AI food scan?
Honest answer: it's good for common dishes and weaker on niche or homemade ones. Always review the result before logging — the manual editor is one tap away. AI is a shortcut, not a guarantee.
Can I cancel a subscription anytime?
Yes. Subscriptions are billed by the App Store or Google Play, so you cancel from your normal subscriptions screen. Lifetime is a one-time purchase — there's nothing to cancel.
Is PlateStack medical advice?
No. PlateStack is a fitness and nutrition tracking app. Calorie estimates and AI Coach guidance are informational only. Always consult a qualified medical or nutritional professional before changing your diet or training program — especially if you have a medical condition.
