Connect your AI assistant
Tell Claude what you ate, or show it a photo, and it's logged in DishDecoded. Ask how your day is going, save a recipe you worked out together, or log a recipe you cooked for the family.
Before you start
- A DishDecoded account. Get the app and finish setup first, so your goals are in place.
- DishDecoded Premium. Connecting an assistant is a Premium feature.
- An AI assistant that supports connectors (MCP), such as Claude.
Connect in Claude
- On claude.ai or the Claude desktop app, open Customize › Connectors.
- Choose Discover, search for DishDecoded, and connect it.
- Sign in with the same account you use in the app (Apple, Google, or email), then choose Allow.
- That's it. The connector also works in the Claude iPhone and Android apps once it's added.
Using Claude Code or another assistant that takes a connector URL? Add this address and sign in the same way:

Things to try
- "I had two scrambled eggs and a slice of sourdough with butter for breakfast."
- (with a photo) "Log this lunch."
- "How am I doing on protein today?"
- "Save this chili recipe to DishDecoded."
- "I made the chili for the family. Log one serving for me."
- "Change last night's pasta to two servings."

Your data
The assistant only reaches your DishDecoded account through the tools above, and only while you're signed in. We receive what the assistant sends to a tool (for example, a meal description and its nutrition), never your conversation. What a tool sends back, like today's totals, is shown to your assistant and handled under its provider's privacy policy. Nutrition numbers are estimates, not medical advice. See our Privacy Policy.
Disconnect
In Claude, open Customize › Connectors, choose DishDecoded under Yours, and disconnect. Your assistant loses access right away. Meals it logged stay in DishDecoded until you delete them in the app.
