The fitness & nutrition tracker that gives back.
Healthy, made effortless.
Thrive is an AI-powered calorie, macro and workout tracker built in South Africa. Log meals from a photo, track workouts by voice, and 10% of every membership goes to a cause you choose.
Built in South Africa 🌱
Everything you track, in one place.
Your personal AI coach
Ask anything about fitness, nutrition, or wellness. Thrive's coach answers in plain language, grounded in your goals, macros, and training — available whenever you need a second opinion.
- Calorie and macro guidance tailored to your targets
- Post-workout meal ideas that fit your day
- Protein, recovery, and training questions on demand
Snap it, scan it, done
Point your camera at the plate. Thrive recognises the meal, estimates the portion and fills in the calories and macros for you. Packaged food? Scan the barcode and it lands in your day in under two seconds.
- AI photo recognition for whole meals
- Barcode scanning with a South African product database
- Fix a portion with one swipe
Your macros, crystal clear
One ring for energy, three bars for protein, carbs and fat. No spreadsheets, no guilt-tripping. Thrive shows what you have eaten, what is left, and what a good next meal looks like.
- Adaptive daily targets that follow your training
- Protein-first coaching nudges
- Weekly nutrition report in plain language
Train your way
Follow a ready-made routine or build your own split. Between sets, just talk: say "bench, 60kg, 8 reps" and it is logged before you rack the bar.
- Voice logging that works with gym noise
- Progressive overload suggested set by set
- Home, gym and mobility programmes included
Watch it all add up
Total volume lifted, body weight trend, streaks kept. Thrive turns months of small sessions into one line that climbs — the proof that the boring days counted.
- Volume and strength curves per lift
- Smoothed body-weight trend, not daily noise
- Streaks that survive one missed day
Dark mode
Dark or light — your call.
Midnight for the 5am session, daylight for the desk. Thrive follows your system theme or stays exactly where you put it — one tap in settings flips the whole app.

Health sync
Talks to your watch, automatically.
Thrive syncs with Apple Health and Google Health Connect, so steps, heart rate, workouts and sleep flow in without you typing a thing. Your daily energy target even adjusts to the activity your watch already logged.
- Apple Health on iOS, Health Connect on Android
- Steps, heart rate, sleep and workouts imported
- Energy targets adapt to your real activity
Apple Health
Native iOS integration — steps, HR, sleep and workouts.
Health Connect
Android's unified health layer, supported out of the box.
The signature bit
Get fit. Do good. Same membership.
Ten percent of every single membership goes to a cause you choose — youth sport, community nutrition or mental health. No upsell, no extra tick box, and every rand is tracked in your app.
