Kohler Co. has launched Kohler Health, a new venture into the future of digital health and wellness, and its first product, Dekoda. The new toilet attachment is turning the bathroom into a data-driven health and wellness hub, according to Kohler Health.

Challenging people to re-imagine how they think about the bathroom, the untapped hub could give insights into our bodies and health.

From Bathroom to Phone

Integrate effortlessly into daily life, Dekoda discreetly interprets hydration, gut health, and the detection of blood in the toilet bowl. Through personal baselines and tracking trends over time, the product can empower users to make data-driven decisions and build healthier habits.

As Kohler Health’s first product, Dekoda attaches to the toilet bowl, blending into any bathroom. Its advanced optical sensors and validated machine-learning algorithms deliver valuable insight into key health and wellness indicators through the Kohler Health app. Dekoda offers fingerprint authentication and end-to-end encryption designed for user privacy and security.
