Dexcom has released a new artificial intelligence (AI)-powered meal logging feature for its Stelo over-the-counter (OTC) glucose biosensor, following the feature’s launch on Dexcom G7 last year.

The Stelo OTC continuous glucose monitor (CGM) launched in the U.S. in August 2024. In December, Dexcom rolled out a proprietary generative AI platform for Stelo with Weekly Insights.

The New Smart Food Logging feature encourages and allows users to log meals more consistently. Users take a photo of their food in the app, where AI will automatically identify the ingredients and populate the meal description.

“Diet plays a crucial role in managing glucose levels, and our new Smart Food Logging feature removes barriers to food tracking, making it easier to consistently log and understand the impact of meals,” said Jake Leach, president and chief operating officer at Dexcom. “Smart Food Logging has long been a highly requested feature from users across our product portfolio, so we’re excited to bring it to market and hope this enhanced tracking feature makes managing glucose levels even simpler.”

In May, Stelo began integration with the Oura app. When Stelo is synced with Oura, users receive a holistic view of their biometrics, including glucose. This lets users understand the impact of different health behaviors and work toward optimal metabolic health, the company said.

Stelo and G7 users can access the Smart Food Logging feature by updating to the app’s latest version on iOS and Android platforms.
