Rectalyze is the world’s first subcutaneous, Bluetooth-enabled implant that performs real-time metagenomic sequencing of stool as it passes. Turn every bathroom break into actionable wellness data.
Three breakthrough innovations working together to turn your body’s natural output into a continuous stream of health intelligence.
The Implant
A biocompatible, Bluetooth-enabled “smart bead” the size of a grain of rice sits comfortably in the anal canal. It houses a nano-scale chromatography sensor and a low-energy radio that streams data to your phone within milliseconds.
Real-Time Sequencing
Every bowel movement is “spectroscopically interrogated” — a fancy way of saying the implant reads the chemical and biological fingerprint of your stool in real time. No lab. No mailing tubes. No waiting.
The Companion App
Your data flows to the Rectalyze app, where an AI trained on 50,000 de-identified stools translates raw biology into plain-English insights, trends, and gentle nudges toward better gut health.
Your Gut, Quantified
Nine proprietary biomarkers — updated in real time — give you a window into your microbiome and capsaicin tolerance that was previously impossible without a lab.
87.3%
Bacteroidality Score
Measures the ratio of beneficial Bacteroidetes in your sample.
Optimal
14.2h
Transit Velocity Index
Time from ingestion to exit. Ideal range is 12–24 hours.
Normal
4.1%
Akkermansia Level
Abundance of the mucin-degrading bacterium linked to metabolic health.
Optimal
8.7
Microbiome Diversity Index
Shannon diversity score. Higher values indicate a more resilient ecosystem.
High
12pg/mL
Inflammation Marker
Calprotectin proxy. Lower levels suggest a calmer intestinal lining.
Low
Type 3
Stool Consistency Grade
Bristol Stool Scale match. Type 3 is the gold standard for healthy transit.
Ideal
47kSHU
Scoville Tolerance
Real-time capsaicin heat estimation based on stool chemistry. Higher is braver.
Elevated
72%
Capsaicin Adaptation
Progressive heat tolerance score. Tracks how your microbiome adapts to spicy food over time.
Advanced
8.9
Competition Readiness
Composite score for competitive eating prep. Combines tolerance, speed, and recovery.
Peak
Athlete Mode
Competitive eating is a sport. Rectalyze treats it like one. Train your gut for the podium.
Real-Time Scoville Estimation
After every spicy meal, the implant reports estimated SHU exposure, peak heat curve, and recovery half-life. Know exactly how hard you pushed your limits.
Adaptive Benchmarking
Weekly heat-adaptation curves show your microbiome acclimating to capsaicin. Coaches use this data to taper training before competitions.
Leaderboard & Rankings
Compare your tolerance, speed, and recovery against verified athletes globally. Climb divisions from Amateur to Ghost-PEPPR.
Competition Prep Protocol
Pre-event tapering guides you through load, peak, and deload phases. Arrive at the table with a gut scientifically primed for maximum pepper intake.
Medical-Grade Monitoring
Rectalyze continuously scans your microbiome for biomarkers that indicate internal bleeding.
Our optical hemoglobin sensor detects trace amounts of blood in feces with laboratory-grade
sensitivity, alerting you the moment a potential issue arises.
Important: If blood is detected, Rectalyze will immediately flag the result
and recommend that you consult a qualified healthcare professional. This device is not a
substitute for professional medical diagnosis.
Regulatory Notice: Clinical testing and FDA approval are planned for a future
date, once we have analyzed the focus team results and completed our ongoing research program.
Until that time, all medical features are investigational and provided for informational purposes only.
Sustainable Manufacturing
Rectalyze Bio is committed to building the future of wellness technology through responsible, planet-conscious production. Our facilities prioritize renewable energy, zero-waste processes, and ethical supply chains at every step.
Our newest manufacturing facility in Xedilian represents a major investment in the local community, creating several hundred accessible, well-compensated workplaces while bringing cutting-edge biotech production to the region.
At the heart of our facility is an innovative AI safety system that monitors and assists with the most precision-critical manufacturing steps. This technology doesn't replace human judgment — it amplifies it, enabling a level of quality control that sets a new standard for the industry.
An Inclusive Workforce: We believe that cognitive diversity drives innovation. Our AI-assisted safety protocols create an environment where team members with a wide range of cognitive strengths can thrive in precision-oriented roles. By designing accessible pathways and removing systemic barriers, we empower every contributor to bring their full, authentic selves to work — because when diverse perspectives are centered, better devices follow.

What the Focus Team Says
Early adopters, beta testers, and scientific advisors share their unfiltered experience with Rectalyze.
“I hit things with a hammer for a living. Rectalyze hits your gut with science. Same principle, smaller hammer.”
Dumag gro-BonkProfessional Smith
“I keep a household in order with quiet diligence. Rectalyze keeps my gut in order with equal dedication. A fitting symmetry.”
KithlanSteward
“I have stitched together flesh and circuitry in pursuit of better biology. Rectalyze stitches together data and wellness with far less screaming. Commendable.”
