Why I built Mitso
It started with one question at a restaurant.
A friend and I were at a restaurant we'd been to more times than we could count, and we started wondering: is the food we keep ordering here actually good for us? Then a second question: how much have we spent here over the years?
We had no idea, and most people don't. We track steps, sleep and screen time, but food, the thing we spend on and put into our bodies every day, goes unnoticed.
So I built Mitso to do two things:
- Show where your food money goes: groceries, dining out, delivery and coffee, from your card statements.
- Help you choose better in the moment: search any dish before you order, or snap your plate to see its calories and how balanced it is.
Eat to 80% full. Spend to 80% of budget.No diet and no strict budget, just a little more awareness at every meal.
