Recognize patterns, use data more intelligently

AI-supported food diary with SeaTable

With SeaTable, you have access to AI features available to assist you in evaluating your food diary. Analyze texts, extract information from documents, and automatically summarize findings.

Automatic categorization with Classify

Have entries automatically classified by categories such as “breakfast,” “snack,” “high sugar content,” or “suspicious in case of complaints.” This will help you recognize patterns in your eating habits more quickly and enable you to discuss them with experts in a more targeted manner.

Automatic text recognition with OCR

Scan or photograph food packaging, nutrition counseling handouts, or plans from clinics and have relevant information recognized automatically. The OCR function reads text from images and makes it available for further evaluation.

Intelligent data extraction with Extract

With the Extract function, you can extract specific information such as calorie counts, allergens, or recommended daily amounts from texts and write them into separate columns. This reduces manual effort and ensures consistent data structures.

Summaries with Summarize

Have longer notes or free-text descriptions—such as complaints or eating situations—summarized automatically. The Summarize function creates summaries that you can use for doctors, nutritionists, or diary reviews.

Individual AI rules with custom prompts

With Custom Prompts, you can define your own AI instructions for your food diary. Examples: Notifications about noticeable patterns with certain foods, suggestions for questions to ask at your next doctor’s appointment, or short weekly reports on eating habits and well-being.

Reports at the touch of a button

Automatically generate reports on your eating habits, documented symptoms, and potential triggers. The AI summarizes your data in a structured way so that you can easily export it or discuss it with your healthcare professionals.
