Very good news and happy Fable will remain. On max and Team plans.

[Claude @claudeai]

Beginning July 20, Claude Fable 5 will be included in all Max and Team Premium plans, at 50% of limits.

Pro and Team Standard users will continue to have access to Fable via usage credits, and will receive a one-time $100 credit.

Demand for Fable has been challenging to predict, which is why we rolled it out to subscription plans in stages, extending access several times as we secured additional capacity.

@NicolasLecocqHQ Nice. Tiktok same. I read some positive news of people running ads there. Thinking about doing that as well when app is live.

Good luck building Nicolas. Ill keep following your journey. Keep crushing it 💪🏻

The biggest complaint we saw when talking to people in person using nutrition apps we all know very well?

"The database is full of junk and my local foods aren't accurate." Ranging from grams to cups to portion and much more. Completely inaccurate.

So we did something different.

Moveno is built on 11 data sources: 9 official national food databases across Europe + 1 US and additional open databases and a API.

110,000+ products, in 8 search languages, and growing. Prioritizes local foods depending in which country you are.

Photo AI + one-tap corrections on top of real data for easy correction and easy add-on where you need it.

And while photo AI is all nice and such we have added to that a easy method of taking a photo of your nutrition facts label to extract those values for accuracy.

And if you really want it.... just put your food on a kitchen scale and place the product next to it. Take that picture and it retrieves the product from the database, the grams from the scale and voila, accurate results.

That is the difference, and the first beta testers onboarded are crazy happy about it. We keep it simple but add real value people want.

Couple of weeks is full of bug-fixes and improvements in functionality and UI. Can't wait for the launch.

@_MaxBlade What is your take on that growth looking at the marketing side of things. How did you approach that?

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

@bridgemindai @bridgebench Fable 5 is amazing. I can't express the improvements it was able to make in my app. It's amazing.
Let's hope it stays in the subscription.

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

Being able to integrate @sentry is such an immense value for pro-active troubleshooting and capturing issues early on.

I had a scheduled task looping to go over sentry issues coming in now that we are live in the closed test track for @getMoveno and was able to resolve a critical issue in less then 3 minutes without causing issues towards the users.

Now the rest of the issues to look at :D

@cinamarina @cinamarina may I ask what you have noticed is very valuable growing your audience / followers on X in regards to marketing as a founder / builder?

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

Today is a pivotal moment

We got approved on both Apple- and Play store for the closed round for testing. And that in less then a day.

Would it be different if I did not have a so called store compliance agent and skill? Maybe.

One of the things I believe made it faster to get approved is to assure you have all things in check and in accordance with both stores in regards to compliance. Sounds very logical, but it's easy to overlook with all the things that come in to play.

So I gave in this case Fable 5 the goal to create a agent and the corresponding skill that is self-leaning that takes all the nessecary official resource documents only that are applicable towards our app ( codebase ) and then prior to cutting a built does a full run.

It found several items that were needed to be fixed / make better. Once done and also adjusted on both stores I got approved in less then 1 day.

We will see how it turns out when we launch officially, but for now I am happy.

We are approved, and the first testers are onboarded already. Let's go! Happy building everybody.

@Sousinr I agree fully with the stack. And not to mention, very scalable as well with acceptable tiering.

Also Cloudflare R2 Storage buckets (free) to certain sizing not to forget the awesome egress policy :)

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

@girlmoneyguide Indeed Riley. And the top frustrating part my clients give me are around the amount of unnecessary clicks it takes to add foods, slowness and overall clutter. Many more but those seem to re-occur. It needs to add to your goals, not work against you right.

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

I spent weeks reading what people actually hate about calorie apps in 2026...

I analyzed hundreds of Reddit threads + recent X posts about nutrition trackers, well agents did to be honest here.

The #1 complaint? Database inaccuracies and junk entries that ruin your tracking. And that is about manual search because everybody can enter anything so duplicate entries allover in different values like kg/lbs and so on.

People are tired of logging "chicken breast" and getting 5 wildly different calorie numbers let alone the same product over and over again with different values, then what do you pick?

Local foods remain a painpoint. One of the wayt we want to resolve is to get local datasets, already have quite a few, API('s) that add value where the datasets don't have the values sort to say. And country awareness, and that might be the biggest differentiator.

This is exactly why we built Moveno with official national databases from 11 countries (so far) and API's for additional value.

Photo recognition is so fun, it's simply magic. But you need to have a great experience at the end for people to correct the things recognized and also add to the things it did not "see". Big big difference here.

@athcanft You have any tips on the TikTok ads part?

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

@bridgemindai You think Claude will do a reset as well now they extended Fable ?

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

Seeing the AI model also operating your iOS simulator and checking backend at the same time is amazing.

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

A supportive community is everything for positive reinforcement.

That is why within @getMoveno we are building a small, yet effective community option that supports eachother in a positive way. You can easily set a consistency goal for example to support logging your food.

Or want to keep track of your workouts? No problem, go training with your buddy and see it in the time-line.

Community and support is everything, hence we are building it into Moveno.

Curious on what everybody things of this. Drop a comment if you like.

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

@frank_thelen Still hoping for a reset @frank_thelen . Getting closer every minute myself.

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

Building @getMoveno it's a AI first calorie tracking app combined with a fitness module.

Where calorie-tracking apps just focus on the scan and results we offer fast adjustments to it including manual search and a buddy support group for friends and family to join in on the journey.

Check if out if you want on https://t.co/YT59r4l2m0

Give me a follow if you like, always looking to connect with others.

I have been running simulations on my AI food recognition pipe-line and now with Fable 5 I have seen such a great improvement on speed and quality it's amazing.

It flagged things I have never seen before with the Opus model so far in @claudeai

Also what works very well is "point out blind-spots I haven't thought of or seen".

[Danny Verkissen @DannyVerkissen]

@robj3d3 Let's hope for another one reset Rob otherwise we are all maxed out on Sunday with the accounts haha.
