It's about time we take the guesswork out of carb counting and understand better what food does to our bodies. I am thrilled to support SNAQ on that mission.
ABOUT SNAQ
We're taking the guesswork out of eating.
SNAQ was built by a team of engineers, dietitians, marketers and diabetes experts who believe everyone deserves nutrition intelligence as good as the best clinic in the world — in their pocket, every day.
SNAQ is an AI-powered nutrition app that uses patented food recognition technology to analyse meals from a photo, estimate carbohydrate and macronutrient content, and deliver personalised, proactive coaching through an AI nutritionist. Clinically validated in a randomised controlled trial published in eClinicalMedicine (The Lancet) in 2025 — the only such trial for a consumer nutrition app. SNAQ reduced carb estimation errors by 38% and improved Time in Range by 6.6 percentage points in adults with type 1 diabetes on automated insulin delivery systems. SNAQ is used by more than 250,000 people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, those on GLP-1 medications, and anyone seeking precision nutrition guidance for blood sugar and metabolic health.
Our mission
Reveal the impact of food on health.
We believe that knowing what you eat is the first step toward metabolic confidence. Not calories on a label. Not guesswork at the table. Meal-level clarity, every day, for everyone who needs it.
Why SNAQ exists
Counting carbs by eye is a 1980s solution to a 21st-century problem.
The result: estimation errors that drive up A1c, undermine confidence at every meal, and leave most people with diabetes guessing alone between appointments.
SNAQ started with a simple question: What if a phone camera could replace decades of guesswork? — and grew into a clinically validated AI nutritionist used by a quarter of a million people.
Around 2014, Aurelian watched his wife navigate her first year with type 1 diabetes. What struck him wasn't just the medical complexity — it was the meals. Every dinner became a set of calculations: estimating portions, looking up ingredients, trying to predict a glucose response that never quite behaved as expected.
He partnered with Nico and asked a straightforward question: could the phone already in your pocket replace decades of guesswork? SNAQ launched in the US in 2022 and remains the only consumer nutrition app backed by randomised-controlled trial evidence of improved glycaemic outcomes and peer-reviewed accuracy studies.
