What do you do about portion size, and the calories a photo can't see like oil or dressing? Those are the parts that have always made me distrust the number these apps spit out. Curious how you're handling it. Only looked at the landing page so far.

Fair prior. That's exactly why every number is editable - I treat the model as a quick draft, not a source of truth.
