Turn Healthy Eating Into a Game.

PowerPlate is a mobile app that helps kids build healthy eating habits through play. Using the phone’s camera, children scan their plate before eating. Our AI analyzes the foods and calculates how balanced the meal is. The healthier and more colorful the plate, the more power points they earn.

These points make their virtual companion, a friendly capybara happier and more energetic, while unlocking fun outfits and rewards. PowerPlate transforms everyday meals into a playful challenge that encourages kids to explore healthy foods, variety, and balance.

Scan Your Plate

Kids simply scan their meal before eating. The app recognizes the foods and evaluates the balance of the plate; vegetables, proteins, grains, and other nutrients. The more balanced the plate, the higher the score. Instead of focusing on restrictions, PowerPlate rewards positive choices and encourages curiosity about healthy foods.

PowerPlate can also scan the fridge. The app identifies available ingredients and suggests simple, healthy recipes that can be prepared with what’s already at home. This helps families cook together, discover new meals, and reduce food waste.

Your Capybara Companion

Every child has a virtual capybara friend that reacts to their food choices. Healthy meals make the capybara happier, more active, and unlock fun clothing and accessories. Over time, kids build streaks, earn points, and develop healthy habits in a positive way.

A Dashboard for Parents
Parents have their own login where they can follow their child’s progress.

The parent dashboard includes:

• Meal balance statistics
• Weekly nutrition trends
• Food variety tracking
• Healthy streaks and progress
• Recipe suggestions for the family

This allows parents to support healthy habits without pressure or strict monitoring.

Healthy Habits Through Play

PowerPlate turns everyday meals into a learning experience. By combining AI food recognition, gamification, and a lovable character, the app helps children develop a positive relationship with food while empowering families to build healthier routines together. Healthy eating becomes a game — and every plate becomes a chance to power up.
