The Challenge

Australia's screening program is leaving
people behind.

The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program saves thousands of lives — but a postal kit system designed decades ago can't reach everyone. Heat, distance, cultural barriers, and the simple "yuck factor" mean millions aren't screened.

☀️

The Hot Zone Problem

Screening kits can't be posted when average temperatures exceed 30°C. This excludes vast regions of Northern Australia — disproportionately affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

East Arnhem Land: just 12.4% participation
📦

Postal System Failure

Kits sit in hot letterboxes, travel through unrefrigerated depots, and degrade before reaching a lab. Remote communities face the longest delays and highest failure rates.

Median 58 days from positive result to colonoscopy
🙅

The Avoidance Factor

Many Australians simply won't handle a home collection kit. Cultural barriers, embarrassment, and the inconvenience of postal return mean kits go unused — even when lives depend on it.

3.7 million invited Australians don't participate
The Technology

Hospital-grade diagnostics.
Inside a toilet.

Our AI-powered smart toilet uses modular dry chemistry analysis — the same technology used in hospital pathology labs — to screen urine and stool samples automatically, with no manual collection required.

🧬

Hands-Free Sample Collection

Automated midstream urine capture and stool analysis via vacuum pump. Sampling port above water for uncontaminated results. Self-cleaning after every test.

🧠

AI-Powered Analysis

Proprietary algorithms process biomarker data against individual health profiles — age, BMI, medical history, medication — for personalised risk assessments in real-time.

🔌

Modular “Lego-Style” Design

Detection chips, ECG modules, and analysis units snap together. Upgrade capabilities without replacing the whole unit.

🔐

Clinically Validated

NMPA Class II medical device certified. Hospital-grade dry chemistry equivalent to standard pathology lab tests. Results within 3–10 minutes.
