Why we created Nutrinova.

Nutrinova started with a simple, stubborn question: Why is tracking what we eat still such a hassle?

Professionally, I’ve spent years building digital products and services for large and small Swiss companies. But when it came to nutrition – something so central to feeling good and functioning well – the tools out there felt like a chore. Weigh this. Scan that. Enter 12 ingredients just to log a sandwich. It wasn’t sustainable. I even subscribed to a 12-month plan on MyFitnessPal – and quit after just three weeks.

Eventually, I realized something important: effective nutrition tracking isn’t about obsessing over every gram – it’s about consistency. The real goal isn’t tracking for the sake of it. It’s feeling in control of your body again. Reclaiming your health, not surrendering it to a spreadsheet.

Most apps felt anonymous and generic, all numbers and no nuance. So I built Nutrinova. An app that doesn’t guilt you, doesn’t overwhelm you, and definitely doesn’t expect perfection. Instead, it helps you make sense of your meals in seconds – through a photo, a sentence, or even just your voice. And it gives you honest, supportive feedback you can actually use to eat better, feel better, and move forward.

Nutrinova is built in Switzerland, but its mindset is global: we believe in freedom, flexibility, and building habits that fit real life – not the other way around.

I created this because I needed it myself. If it helps you feel more in control, more energized, more you – then that’s everything. And if you’ve got ideas, questions, or feedback, I’d genuinely love to hear from you.

Take care of yourself.
