Eighteen-year-old high schoolers Zach Yadegari and Henry Langmack launched Cal AI, a calorie-counting app, which boasts over 5 million downloads in eight months and generated over $2 million in revenue last month. Cal AI uses image recognition to calculate food calories and macros, leveraging large image models from Anthropic and OpenAI for 90% accuracy. The founders' entrepreneurial journey began in high school; Yadegari sold his first company at 16. Cal AI's success showcases the dynamism of young entrepreneurs and the potential of AI in practical applications.
