How a menu scan picks a Top and a Backup
The problem is the menu, not the math
A restaurant menu is a long list. You already know roughly what you should eat. What stalls you is choosing, under time pressure, from twenty dishes that all look fine.
A menu scan cuts that list to two.
What the scan uses
Open Today and point the camera at the menu. OptaFit looks at:
- Calories left on today’s ring — remaining against your target
- Your goal — so the pick is not just “the smallest dish”
- What is actually on the menu — names and descriptions the camera can read
You get a Top pick and a Backup, each with a short reason. The Backup is there for when the first dish is sold out, too slow, or you simply do not want it.
What you do next
Tap Eat this on the one you order. That logs the meal and moves the ring. Until you confirm, the scan is only a suggestion.
If both picks miss, scan again or pick the closer one and adjust the portion when it arrives. Estimates are approximate. The point is a decision you can finish before the server comes back.
What a scan is not
It does not rewrite the menu, count every gram, or replace a dietitian. It is a fast filter so you leave with one plate that still fits the day.
Not medical advice. Estimates only.
