TDEE calculator for calories, macros, and your next move.
Estimate your daily calorie burn, then see practical targets for maintenance, cutting, and lean bulking. Forge AI goes one step further: after the calculation, the app turns your numbers into food logging targets, workouts, and weekly progress feedback.

These are estimates, not medical advice. The best target is the one that adjusts after your real weight trend and food logs come in.
Why this is different from a normal TDEE calculator
It connects to logging
A calorie target is only useful if you can actually log food. Forge AI lets you describe meals instead of searching a database.
It connects to training
Your calorie phase should influence training. A cut needs different recovery and volume than a lean bulk.
It adapts with data
The first estimate gets you started. Your weekly trend tells you whether the target is working.
