Avocavo Nutrition API

What it does

Natural Language Nutrition API powered by USDA FoodData Central: parse messy inputs like "1 cup rice" → clean JSON with FDC IDs. Every response includes USDA verification link.

Structured nutrition API: parse messy inputs like "1 cup rice" → clean JSON with FDC IDs. Every response includes a USDA FDC source link.

The Avocavo Nutrition API is shutting down on November 1, 2026 . We are no longer accepting new sign-ups or purchases. Existing keys keep working until that date. Questions . Source-traceable ingredients, recipes, and barcode nutrition — USDA-linked, blazing fast, and developer-friendly. Parse " handfull of almonds | " — typos, vague portions .

In the maker’s words, at launch

I built Avocavo Nutrition to turn real-world inputs (“2 slices bacon”, “1 handful almonds”, full recipes) into USDA-verified nutrition with FDC IDs + links. • Accepts messy quantities, cooked/raw, servings. • Returns clean JSON (+ CLI/Python/REST), with the exact FDC link to verify. • 500 free calls.…

  Nutri is still in beta and the GPT-powered results are sometimes inaccurate. The nutrient information accuracy is good to get an overview, but there are still outliers at times. I'm looking to improve the accuracy through food databases. Furthermore, I'd like to add additional tips for combining / preparing food to improve its nutritional value. For example, iron absorption is improved through vitamin C, so combine chickpeas or leafy greens with lemon. Or combine beans with rice to get all amino acids. On the UX side, I'd like to integrate a QR code on the desktop version to easily…

  https://github.com/galvez/contagrama Right now I've got a tagger UI and an API that correctly identifies foods you've tagged (from the USDA Food Nutrition Database) and processes gram-amounts from plain text to produce a combined nutritional chart. This is very early stage so more of a call for help: the nutrient chart needs a better design and the API needs work in properly processing g/mg/ml and all the weight conversions defined in the usda_weights table. If you're into nutrition, liked the project and would like to help, drop me a note.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Term.everything – Run any GUI app in the terminal▲1,094

  I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

  I recreated Windows XP as my portfolio▲1,032

  Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
