Frequently Asked

What makes UPlate different?
UPlate is built around three things other calorie trackers can't do: it knows what you can eat (filtered by your allergies and diet), what will help you reach your goals (personalized macro recommendations), and it lets you track it effortlessly, all using real menus from your own campus dining halls and the restaurants around you.
Which universities are supported?
Right now, it's only Purdue, but we're working hard to expand to other major universities. Contact us to request your school!
Is UPlate free to use?
Yes! The core app is completely free: dietary filters, personalized macro recommendations, one-tap logging, dining hall rankings, and social features all come at no cost. UPlate Pro is an optional upgrade at $4.99/month for students who want AI meal recommendations, photo logging, and more.
How accurate is the nutrition data?
We source nutrition data directly from dining halls, no guessing or crowd-sourced estimates.
Does UPlate use AI?
AI-powered meal recommendations are available with UPlate Pro. The core app is free and doesn't need AI to be useful: dietary filters, personalized macro recommendations, one-tap logging, and social features all work on their own.
What dietary restrictions does UPlate support?
UPlate supports filtering by vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, halal, kosher, and other common restrictions. You can also filter by custom ingredients or sort meals by specific nutritional values like protein, carbs, fat, and calories.
How is UPlate different from apps like MyFitnessPal?
Unlike general nutrition apps that require manual food entry, UPlate integrates directly with campus dining hall and restaurant menus. You get accurate nutrition data for the exact meals being served, already filtered to your dietary needs, no searching or estimating required.
Does UPlate cover restaurants, not just dining halls?
Yes! UPlate includes menus from local restaurants and popular chains alongside your dining hall, so you can stay on track wherever you're eating on or off campus.
What's included in UPlate Pro?
UPlate Pro is $4.99/month and adds AI meal recommendations, photo-based meal logging, 7-day meal planning, advanced analytics and progress tracking, and weight tracking on top of the free core app.
How often are dining hall menus updated?
Menus are updated in real-time as dining halls publish their daily offerings, so you always see what's currently being served.
