Your menstrual cycle changes everything. Your calorie tracker doesn't know that.
Oli reads your menstrual cycle phase from Apple Health and adjusts your daily nutrition targets automatically β anti-inflammatory macros during your period, rising energy in your follicular phase, and luteal support when cravings hit. No manual logging. No spreadsheets.
Every nutrition app treats every day the same β even your period.
Calories on day one of your period. Calories on day fourteen. Same number. Same macros. Same indifference. Your body's nutritional needs shift across your menstrual cycle. No tracker accounts for that.
Generic targets.
MyFitnessPal gives you the same 1,800 calories on day 1 of your period as day 14. Your body doesn't work that way β energy needs, cravings, and metabolism all shift across your cycle.
No menstrual cycle awareness.
No mainstream tracker connects to your Apple Health period data to adjust what you eat and when. The cycle data exists on your phone. They've never used it.
Endometriosis is ignored.
Anti-inflammatory diets, hormone-balancing foods, nutrition to ease period cramps and pain β none of this exists in mainstream trackers. Not as a feature. Not even as an afterthought.
MyFitnessPal, MacroFactor, Cronometer β none of them track your cycle.
The major calorie trackers are excellent at counting calories and great at nothing else that matters for women. None of them read menstrual cycle data from Apple Health. None of them shift targets across luteal, follicular, ovulatory, or menstrual phases. None of them flag anti-inflammatory foods for endometriosis or low-GI foods for PCOS.
MyFitnessPal
The default calorie tracker. Massive food database, no cycle awareness. Your calorie target on day 1 of your period is identical to day 14 β even though your metabolic rate, hunger, and nutrient needs aren't.
MacroFactor
Excellent expenditure modelling, opaque to your cycle. MacroFactor adjusts your calories based on weight trend β useful, but blind to the +100 to +300 kcal metabolic shift of the luteal phase. Oli reads the cycle data and accounts for it directly.
Cronometer
The most detailed micronutrient tracker available β and still cycle-blind. Cronometer can tell you exactly how much iron you ate. It can't tell you that you need more of it during your period.
Three steps. Then it runs itself.
Set it up once. Open the app on day twelve of your menstrual cycle and your numbers have already moved with you. No manual phase logging. No period diary. No spreadsheets.
Connect Apple Health.
Oli reads your cycle tracking data the same way your iPhone does. No manual input, no extra logging, no third-party services in the middle.
Oli maps your phase.
Each day is tagged: menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, or luteal. Each has different nutritional needs β and Oli already knows them.
Targets update daily.
Wake up to macros and calories already tuned to where you are. Log what you eat. The math is done. You're free to think about anything else.
What changes across your cycle, and why.
Your menstrual cycle is really four windows of metabolism, energy, and hormone load. Oli tunes calories and macros to each phase β from period nutrition needs to peak-energy ovulation β and explains what's behind every change.

Endometriosis diet support for the days that are harder.
Women with endometriosis and adenomyosis know that nutrition isn't just about calories β it's about reducing inflammation, balancing hormones, managing period pain, and surviving the days that knock you sideways. Oli is the first tracker built for this. Not a generic app with a pink theme β a cycle-aware nutrition tool that actually understands your menstrual health.
Ask Oli anything about your period, your cycle, and your plate.
An AI assistant that knows your menstrual cycle phase, your logged meals, and your history β and can answer "what should I eat to reduce period inflammation?" or "am I getting enough iron during my period?"
