About us

Precision nutrition starts here .

At Cronometer, we believe that what you put in your body matters, and knowing the details can make all the difference in how you live. That’s why we built the most accurate, comprehensive nutrition tracker on the market. Unlike other apps out there, our data isn’t crowdsourced. We pull from verified, lab-analyzed sources like the Nutrition Coordinating Center and the USDA to give you the full nutrient picture—macros, micros, and everything in between.

Our origin story

A nerdy side project turned Canadian success story .

It all started back in 2005 when our founder, Aaron Davidson, was experimenting with the CRON diet (Calorie Restriction with Optimal Nutrition). A software developer by day and health enthusiast by night, Aaron couldn’t find a nutrition tracker that gave him the level of accuracy and detail he wanted, so he built one.

Fast forward a few years, and what began as a passion project turned into a full-blown mission. Aaron quit his cushy six-figure corporate job, went all-in on Cronometer, and the rest is (nutrient-rich) history. Today, over 10 million people around the world use Cronometer to dial in their nutrition.
