About Groteins | Nutrition Tools Built for India

About

Nutrition advice is everywhere. Good defaults aren't.

Groteins started from a simple frustration: most nutrition guidance is either too generic to follow or too complicated to stick with. We build software to close that gap.

Planning a personalized nutrition plan

What we believe

A diet plan is only good if someone can actually follow it. That means it has to reflect their real goals, their real food preferences, and their real routine, not a one-size-fits-all chart. Every product we build starts from that idea.

Where we are

Groteins is early, and we say so. We build one tool at a time and only put it on the site once it works properly. Eight tools are live today: three paid plan generators and five free calculators, listed below.

What's live

Eight tools, each built on its own

Who's behind it

Built by Abul Kalam

Groteins is founded and built by Abul Kalam. Every number in our tools comes from Indian government sources: ICMR-NIN Nutrient Requirements for Indians 2020, the Dietary Guidelines for Indians 2024, the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 and FSSAI rules. Where those sources give no figure, the tools say so instead of guessing.

Groteins does not diagnose or treat any condition, and plans are not reviewed by a doctor before they reach you. If you have a health condition, show your plan to your doctor before you follow it.

How we build

Slow on purpose, in the right places

One tool at a time

Each tool is finished and tested before the next one starts, and each runs on its own, so a fix in one can never break another.

Say what's true

If something isn't ready (a feature, a price, a policy) we'd rather say so than paper over it.

Built to last

Decisions we make now, from design to infrastructure, are made with the next product in mind, not just this one.

Why Not Just Use AI?

A general-purpose AI chatbot can write you a diet plan in seconds. But it wasn't built for nutrition. It's guessing from whatever text it has seen, with no fixed standard behind the numbers, no consistent way to handle allergies or dislikes, and no accountability if the macros are wrong.

But even a perfect AI-written plan is still just text. You have to organize it, track it, remember to follow it, and if you're a coach, reformat it for every client. Groteins gives you the finished thing: checked macros, a clean PDF and delivery straight to the inbox, with your own branding if you are a coach.

For coachesNo branding, no client deliveryDelivered under your own name and brand

Groteins works for two kinds of people. Coaches and dietitians can send plans under their own name and branding, with clients replying directly to them, not to us. And anyone who wants a plan for themselves gets the same engine, from ₹49.
