Not sure if you are already familiar but I use Cal AI and think it does a pretty decent job. How granular do you track the macros? hard to figure out from a picture if I used some cheese or how much oil.

Indeed, I intend on having the user take over after identifying the food that we're working with.
The idea is to reduce the amount of redundant work (clicking a button to add a single ingredient over and over again), and rather push for minor modifications instead.
CalAI is a scam. It's highly inaccurate, there's no way to determine calories from a picture for a multitude of reasons
works fine for my use case and found it alot better than myFitnessPal, ymmv and yeah of course it's impossible to determine with certainty but it gets you 80/90% of the way there.
if you cooked a meal with a ton of butter or oil, it would not be able to detect the quantity. it could possibly undercount by hundreds of calories, making it useless. if you're not serious about the counting then it could be fine
