Kohler Health Celebrates Dekoda's First Year

On October 15, 2026, Kohler Health proudly celebrated the one-year anniversary of Dekoda, its innovative health tracker designed to integrate seamlessly into the bathroom environment. This exceptional device is specifically designed to empower individuals by providing critical insights into their health.

Since its launch, Dekoda has earned prestigious industry recognition, highlighting its cutting-edge approach to health monitoring. Recently, it garnered accolades from the Reviewed's Best of the Year Awards, Fast Company’s Innovation by Design, the iF Gold Award, as well as honors at the San Francisco Design Week and UX Design Awards. Furthermore, it proudly sits on TIME’s Best Inventions list for 2026.

Unprecedented Health Monitoring Technology

What sets Dekoda apart is its unique ability to monitor health parameters directly from the toilet, a first for at-home health trackers. By employing proprietary optical spectroscopy technology, Dekoda can accurately detect the presence of blood in the toilet bowl, making it an essential tool for proactive health management. This feature allows users to receive real-time feedback on critical health indicators such as hydration levels and nutrient absorption.

Nora Tophof, the Managing Director of Kohler Health, emphasized the importance of the device, stating, "When we developed Dekoda, our goal was to give people the tools to listen to their bodies. Trace amounts of blood or hydration issues are often overlooked, and Dekoda captures these subtle biological signals, offering users clear and objective data to share with their healthcare providers."

Empowering Users Through The Kohler Health App

The intuitive Kohler Health App connects users with their health data, bridging the gap between daily lifestyle choices and underlying health patterns. This app serves as a critical resource for individuals seeking longevity and wellness, particularly those managing chronic gastrointestinal conditions. In a significant commitment to public health, Kohler Health collaborates with the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation to support individuals navigating inflammatory bowel diseases.

Future Plans at Kohler Health

As Kohler Health looks to the future, continuous updates and new features will enhance the capabilities of Dekoda further. This technological evolution aims to provide personalized health guidance and keep the home bathroom at the forefront of proactive health management.

Privacy remains a core value for Kohler Health. The company employs state-of-the-art AES-256 encryption for data protection, ensuring users have complete control over their health records, including the ability to review or delete them at any time.

With a retail price of $449, Dekoda is available for purchase on Kohler.com and KohlerHealth.com. For more information on Kohler Health and Dekoda, visit KohlerHealth.com.
