GoKawiilKohler and Startup Throne Sell AI Toilet Devices That Analyze Stool and Urine
Kohler Health and startup Throne are marketing camera-equipped toilet attachments that use AI to scan urine and stool for color, consistency, and hydration markers, then generate daily 'gut health' scores through a companion app. Kohler's device costs $449 with a $130 annual membership, while Throne, which recently raised $10 million, charges $399 plus a $70 yearly fee. Both companies say their tools track what's normal for each user rather than issuing blanket health verdicts, unlike existing at-home microbiome test kits.
