MVP Mobile App Developer with AI Experience

Conversational Nutrition Coach App — MVP (Fixed Price) **Budget:** $1,500–$4,000 (fixed price) **Platform:** Open to your recommendation — single platform only (web app, iOS, or Android — not both) **Timeline:** Aiming for around 4 weeks, but open to a realistic timeline based on your bid ## What I'm Building A mobile-friendly app that helps people understand their nutrition through friendly, conversational AI — not heavy logging and dashboards like MyFitnessPal or Cal AI. Users log meals mainly by photo, and instead of just seeing numbers, they get a short, friendly conversation about what was nutritionally good, what might be missing, and a bit of practical education. The goal is something that feels like chatting with a knowledgeable friend, not being tracked by an app. ## Core MVP Features 1. **Photo-based meal logging + conversational follow-up** — snap a photo, app estimates food/portions/nutrients (with manual text-entry backup), then opens a brief friendly chat about the meal — what was good, what's missing, and why it matters (including naturally asking about activity/exercise when relevant, rather than a separate logging screen) 2. **Nutrient awareness** — macros (carbs/protein/fat/calories) plus key vitamins/minerals, with insights delivered conversationally rather than as a strict scorecard 3. **Custom or default targets** — track totals against a standard benchmark or a user-set target (e.g., a 50/30/20 macro split) ## What I'm Looking For - Experience with mobile/web app development, AI vision APIs (e.g., GPT-4o, Gemini, Claude vision), and conversational AI/LLM integration (this last one is central to what makes the app different) - Comfortable working with a non-technical founder — able to explain tradeoffs clearly - Portfolio examples of similar apps (tracking, conversational AI, or AI-powered image apps a plus) ## To Apply, Please Include - Your recommended platform (web/iOS/Android) and why - Which vision/AI and nutrition data APIs you'd use, and your approach to the conversational/educational piece - A rough timeline and milestone breakdown for your fixed-price bid Full detailed spec available for serious candidates — happy to share after an initial conversation (may ask for an NDA before sharing full details).
