What the percentage on a scan result means, and where those levels came from.
Steps

Step 1: Every scan result shows a confidence percentage before anything is saved.
Step 2: 70% or higher: we're confident.
In our measured test run, meal photos scoring 70% or more were read correctly every time.
Step 3: 50% to 69%: check it.
Most were right, but some were not — read the numbers before you save.
Step 4: Under 50%: treat it as a rough guess.
The app warns you and asks you to verify.
Step 5: Open Scan → Accuracy to see real photos, the score each one got, and what the food actually was.
Tips
- These levels come from a benchmark of 643 real items — 493 label-checked meal photos plus packaged food, supplements, vitamins, peptides, TRT vials, prescriptions and codes — not from guesswork.
- You can always correct a result on the review screen; nothing saves until you confirm.
