The Challenge
The main challenge was to build an AI fitness system that feels simple for users but runs on medically sound, deterministic logic.
Deterministic Calorie Engine
Computing precise, medically valid calorie targets from 67 onboarding data points without approximation.
AI Meal Plan Generation
Producing personalized weekly meal plans via Gemini AI with tool-calling image sourcing at scale.
Adaptive Workout Programming
Adjusting exercise selection, volume, and intensity dynamically based on each user’s goals and progress.
Frictionless 67-Point Onboarding
Designing a 15-screen onboarding flow that collects deep user data without creating drop-off or friction.
Apple App Store Compliance
Navigating Apple’s review process for AI health apps, clearing all guidelines on first resubmission.
Cross-Platform Consistency
Delivering a seamless experience across iOS and Android from a single React Native codebase.
Real-Time Progress Analytics
Surfacing meaningful fitness insights and trend data without overwhelming users with raw numbers.
Image Sourcing at Scale
3-tier fallback strategy (Spoonacular → Edamam → Pexels) ensuring rich visuals across all meal screens.
