MyFitnessPal Acquires Rival AI Nutrition-Tracking App

March 2, 2026

The deal for Cal AI marks the latest move in a recent wave of fitness and wellness app consolidation

MyFitnessPal has acquired Cal AI, a nutrition tracking app built by a group of Forbes “30 Under 30” entrepreneurs that generated more than $40 million in sales in the last year.

Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed, but it marks MyFitnessPal’s third significant move in just over a year.

Last February, the platform, owned by private equity firm Francisco Partners,  acquired Intent, a personalized meal planning app. This past January, it integrated with ChatGPT Health.

Cal AI brings AI-powered photo food recognition and a body composition analyzer that lets users capture front and side views to generate body fat percentage estimates, breakdowns of essential and non-beneficial fat versus lean mass, composition tracking to monitor progress and personalized dietary recommendations.
