How it works
Create meal plans in 4 steps
Your client fills in the intake
The intake form in the client app asks for body data, activity, goals, intolerances, eating habits, cooking time and budget.
The software creates the plan
Natty Gains calculates calorie and nutrient needs and creates meal plans for this week and the next. Every Monday the following week is ready.
You fine-tune it
Swap recipes, adjust ingredient amounts, change meal times or add your own meals. Nutrient values update instantly.
Your client gets it
Release the plan in your branded client app or send it as a PDF with your logo. The shopping list is created automatically.
Features
Everything you need to create meal plans for clients
From the first plan to weekly adjustments: the meal planner does the time-consuming work, you keep full control over every detail.
Automatic meal plans based on the intake
No more calculating calories by hand or searching for recipes for hours. The software creates individual meal plans that match your client's goal, such as weight loss, muscle gain or better performance, and their daily routine.
- Plans for this week and the next in seconds
- New weekly plans every Monday, or the same plan every week
- Diets from omnivore to flexitarian, paleo, low carb and keto
Swap recipes in one click
Your client doesn't like a dish? Click "Change" and choose from alternatives that fit the diet, the intolerances and roughly the same calories. The nutrient values of the plan update automatically.
Fine-tune every recipe
Change ingredient amounts, remove ingredients or add new ones. More protein or fewer carbohydrates for one client takes seconds, and you never have to rebuild the plan from scratch.
Detailed nutrition analysis
See calories and macronutrients for every day, down to amino acids, sugar types, fatty acids and fibre. The micronutrient tab shows vitamins, minerals and trace elements compared with DGE reference values, so you spot gaps early.
Meal plan templates and meal timing
Save ingredients, recipes, meals and complete days as favorites and reuse them for any client. Shift meals to fit shift work, training days or a long Sunday sleep.
Meal plans as a PDF in your branding
Some clients like to hold their plan in their hands. Choose a period, click download and get a PDF in your design, with your logo and a link to your website.
In the client app
Meal plans your clients actually follow
Your clients see their plan, recipes and shopping list in your own app. You see what they really eat.
Check off meals
Clients tick off eaten meals and see how many calories are left for the day. You see in the dashboard whether the plan works.
Favorite recipes
Clients save recipes they love. You use their favorites to make the next plans even more personal.
Cook for the family
Portions adjust in steps of 0.5, and the shopping list adjusts with them.
Smart shopping list
Created from the meal plan, sorted and ready for the supermarket, with the food budget taken into account.
Own meals
Clients and coaches add their own recipes. Nutrient values are calculated automatically.
Your branding
The app shows your logo, your colors and your name, so clients connect the results with you.
