Photos, files and scans
Show Kata a plate, a label, a lab report or a document. Kata reads it and suggests what to save.
Tap +, then Take a photo or Choose a photo. A plate becomes its foods and numbers, a label its nutrition, a screenshot from another app its values.
Upload a file or photograph a report. Kata reads each value and you review them before anything is saved. See Lab results and documents.
Scan a product reads a barcode and finds the product in Open Food Facts. If it isn’t there, photograph the label.
Reading photos and files is part of Kata Plus and Kata Unlimited. Scanning barcodes is free on every plan.
The photo stays on your device. A copy goes to our AI provider only to be read: Kata’s servers keep none, and the provider deletes it within 30 days and does not train on it.
