Methodology

w8t coach uses transparent calculator methods and cautious AI meal scanning estimates for general wellness guidance.

Calorie and TDEE estimates

Calorie, BMR, TDEE and maintenance calculators use common formulas such as Mifflin-St Jeor, then apply activity multipliers as broad estimates.

Macros

Macro estimates distribute calories into protein, carbohydrate and fat ranges for general wellness and fitness context.

Meal Scanner

Meal scanning turns food, drink and product inputs into editable estimates. Review portions and ingredients before saving.

Body fat and BMI

Body fat uses circumference-based formulas where relevant. BMI is a population-level screening guide and does not measure body composition.

Limits

All outputs are estimates. Lighting, hidden ingredients, portions, activity and individual needs can change real-world results.

References include common public formulas such as Mifflin-St Jeor, activity multiplier conventions, BMI limitations and US Navy body-fat equations. w8t.ai does not provide medical advice.
