If you think your toilet could not possibly get smarter, think again. Kohler’s new Dekoda smart toilet camera is here to change what it means to “check in” on your health.

Dekoda combines science and sleek design to help you decode your body’s signals right from the bathroom. This health-tracking device uses advanced sensors to analyze what you flush away, providing insights into gut health, hydration, and even signs of blood in the bowl.

How the Dekoda smart toilet camera uses AI to fit seamlessly into your routine

The Dekoda smart toilet camera combines artificial intelligence with precision sensors to transform your daily bathroom routine into a health-tracking experience. Its minimalist, curved design allows it to blend effortlessly into most bathrooms, and installation takes just minutes. You simply clamp it to the inner rim of your toilet, no tools required.

Once in place, Dekoda works automatically. Each time you use the bathroom, its spectroscopy-based optical sensors capture and analyze data in real time. Validated machine learning algorithms interpret that information to detect hydration levels, gut health patterns, and even microscopic traces of blood that could signal potential issues.

After each scan, encrypted data flows directly to the Kohler Health app, where your personal profile updates instantly. The app translates complex sensor readings into easy-to-understand insights and personalized recommendations. Over time, it learns from your patterns to provide more precise feedback, helping you build small habits that can make a real difference in your health.

Precision built on years of research

Kohler Health developed Dekoda after more than ten years of focused research across multiple scientific disciplines. The project brought together eight PhDs who collaborated to design a device that delivers accuracy and reliability every time. Throughout development, the team gathered and analyzed more than 1.2 million data points, which helped fine-tune Dekoda’s performance and ensure dependable results.

Because of this extensive testing, Dekoda’s spectroscopy-based sensors now measure waste with remarkable precision. These sensors compare data against lab-grade standards and deliver instant feedback that users can trust. As a result, you gain clinical-level accuracy without leaving your bathroom, and you can see your health trends in real time through the Kohler Health app.

The Kohler Health membership unlocks full access to the app and its insights. Plans start at $6.99 per month for a single user or $12.99 per month for families with up to five members. You can view your wellness data, track hydration, and spot changes over time right from your phone.

The app works with iOS 17 and Android 14 or later, so most smartphones are compatible. Dekoda connects through Wi-Fi, keeping your health data synced automatically.

I would trust the toilet technology. At the very least, it would serve as an “early warning detection system”.

Another data collection that will be shared someday or breached. No thank you.
