Smart Capture
Food Ninja combines image classification, OCR text, optional detected expiry date, and supplemental transcript into clean records and medications.
Why it helps
- Reduces manual typing when logging groceries or medications.
- Uses OCR date hints and normalizes flexible date formats.
- Keeps uncertain fields visible by marking incomplete items.
Typical flow
- 1) Scan packaging
Camera capture provides OCR text and image context to the backend capture endpoint.
- 2) Add voice context
Optional voice transcript fills missing details for groceries like location or notes.
- 3) Confirm records
Generated items are sanitized, tagged, and inserted into your expiry list or medications list.
