Analysis App Offered to Sell Me Database of Its Users' Poops
404 Media ^ | 14 May 2026 | Jason Koebler

"I hoarded a large database of something valuable, just not what you expect… 150k stools images."

The poop database comes from an app called PoopCheck, an app made by a company called Soft All Things that purports to use AI to analyze images of one’s stool in order to give you a “daily gut health score.”

With that in mind, here there is an estimation of pricing options:

• 10,000 unreviewed images (AI-validated) — $3,000

• 5,000 fully human-reviewed & annotated (on top of AI validation) — $4,000

The appliance giant Kohler endured a security ****show when a researcher showed that its stool-analyzing smart toilet camera was not actually properly encrypting the images that it sent to Kohler.

I would only use it if it sent data to my Daily Defecation Journal app.

Keeping a daily defecation journal helps you monitor digestive health, identify food triggers, and spot irregularities like constipation or diarrhea. Standard frequency is anywhere from three times a week to three times a day...

The Daily Poop Sheet: A Poop Log Book and Journal.
This practical poop tracking journal is great for health tracking or as a gag gift! Everyone poops, so the topic is always trending, funny, and timeless!

Inspired by your link to Amazon, I did a general Amazon search on “poop log”. Scores, maybe hundreds, of poop log books. I’m flabbergasted (maybe that’s not quite the right word...).

If they can tie this thing to interest rates or legislative districts, it could attract some government funding...??

Well, it wasn’t a web search or the dark web.

True. Nevertheless I probably won't add it to my resume under "Notable Achievements".

Does this come with smell-o-vision?

There’s an app for that.
