Israeli medical device startup Olive Diagnostics is launching Olive WatchOS, its new Apple Watch app that brings artificial analysis (AI)-based urine analysis results to smart watches, the company announced Monday.

The app is connected to Olive's KG, a non-invasive, AI-based optical device for urinalysis. The AI will add the measurement of molecules, biomarkers in urine that are relevant to more than 600 conditions.
KG draws its analysis from molecules such as protein, ketone, creatinine, as well as red blood cells, and other urine characteristics such as volume, pressure, color, and frequency.
As the app connects with the device, it pulls through the diagnostics taken by the Olive KG and displays it on the Olive WatchOS app. The app then provides a health score based on the urinalysis. The Olive WatchOS is free for individual use.
Using a Bluetooth feature that was first enabled in WatchOS8, the KG device automatically connects to an Apple Watch as a person approaches the toilet where it is fitted.
"Olive Diagnostics enables quick and early detection of conditions and diseases that could negatively impact the health of a person and place an unnecessary load on healthcare professionals," said Guy Goldman, CEO of Olive Diagnostics. "We are now taking this a step further and simplifying how the how users interact with the toilet mounted sensor, and receive data relevant to them, as well as their care givers."
