Know the protein score
before you order.

DriveThruProtein scores fast food orders by protein efficiency — so you can hit your macros without giving up the food you love.

The Problem with Fast Food and Macros

Fast food is destroying consistency.

You eat out 4–5x a week. Each mystery meal is a setback you didn't see coming.

People fail because convenience wins.

No one has time to research every menu. So they guess — and they always guess wrong.

We made discipline easier.

One tap. The best protein order at any restaurant. No math, no guesswork, no excuses.

The Science Behind It

What is a PES Score?

PES (Protein Efficiency Score) = (protein ÷ calories) × 100. It tells you how much protein you're getting per calorie — the higher the score, the better the order for your goals.
