A $600 camera for real time analysis of your poop

I’ll let the press release from Kohler explain:

Kohler Co. today announced the launch of Kohler Health, a bold new venture redefining the future of digital health and wellness.

At the center of this launch is Dekoda, Kohler Health's first breakthrough product. This modern, innovative product attaches effortlessly to the toilet bowl, blending unobtrusively into any bathroom. Powered by advanced optical sensors and validated machine-learning algorithms, Dekoda delivers valuable insights into your health and wellness. Data flows to the personalized Kohler Health app, giving users continuous, private awareness of key health and wellness indicators—right on their phone. Features like fingerprint authentication and end-to-end encryption are designed for user privacy and security.

Dekoda is designed to integrate effortlessly into daily life. It decodes hydration, gut health, and the detection of blood in the toilet bowl discreetly and without disruption. By establishing personal baselines and tracking trends over time, it empowers individuals to make data-driven decisions and build healthier habits.

Availability: Dekoda retails for $599 and is available now for pre-order at www.kohlerhealth.com, shipping to customers starting October 21, 2025.

Here’s one particularly quoteworthy line:

By turning the bathroom into a connected, data-informed health and wellness hub, Kohler Health empowers individuals to turn ordinary routines into proactive, personalized experiences.

Also worth noting is this clarification on the product website:

Dekoda’s sensors see down into your toilet and nowhere else.

Lastly, here’s a quoteworthy passage from one review:

Kohler must have been straining to find appropriate lifestyle photos to include with the publicity materials, because a lot of the images are hilarious images of fit-looking men and women drinking water and staring off into space contemplatively. Probably thinking about gas.
