Your gut is constantly moving, digesting, and working, and it makes sounds when it does. We built a belt that listens to them 24/7 and acts as the first gut function monitor.
None of it shows what’s actually happening and you can’t improve what you can’t measure.
For over a century, clinicians have listened to the sounds the gut makes to understand the state of digestion, but only ever for short periods of time. Dige is designed to listen and understand, 24/7.
Dige measures your gut activity, which is how often your gut is audibly active, minute by minute. Each day is compared against your own baseline, not a population average.
Understand your gut’s response to events such as food, drink and activity. Learn how different events are paired and what influences your digestion.
We are building foundational understanding of digestive processes and how lifestyle factors impact the gut.
What the device measures, what it doesn’t claim to do, and how to get one.
Four things, continuously: the sounds your gut makes, your heart rate, your heart rate variability (HRV), and your movement. Together they show what your digestion is doing and what state the rest of your body was in at the time. See how it works
We literally listen to your gut. Our microphone sits against your abdomen and picks up bowel sounds. Alongside them, an optical heart-rate sensor and a motion sensor complete the picture. Hear real recordings
It runs on the wearable itself. Every sound is classified as it happens — speech, clothing friction, movement and background noise are discarded — and what remains is turned into a measure of how active your gut is, minute by minute. The audio is analysed and dropped; it is never stored and never sent to us.
Gut activity measured against your own baseline rather than a population average; how your gut responded to particular meals, drinks, workouts and medication; and how those patterns move across weeks and months. See how it works
A smartwatch can only infer digestion from proxies such as heart rate and sleep. DigeHealth measures the gut directly, by listening to it — a signal clinicians have used for more than a century, but only ever in short bursts through a stethoscope. Read the science
On your abdomen, held in place by an adjustable belt around your waist. The recommended position is the lower right of the abdomen. No fiddly adhesives to change
It is designed to be worn and forgotten, day and night. Overnight is some of the most valuable data we collect, because audio collection is undisturbed by background noise and movement — so the device is built for it. Set the belt for good skin contact without it being too tight.
85 × 45 × 17 mm, 65 g, 3.35 × 1.77 × 0.67 inches, 2.29 oz.
The device sits flat against your abdomen under the belt, beneath your clothes. There is no screen or bright light that could draw attention — from the outside, there is nothing to notice.
DigeHealth devices are not designed as fitness trackers (there are plenty of those). Wear the device before and after exercise to measure your gut’s response to exercise. Take it off before you shower, bathe or swim: it is not designed to be submerged or held under running water.
Wipe the device with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Don’t use alcohol-based cleaners or wipes, and never submerge it. The belt is machine-washable on a gentle cycle.
All three, through two products. Anyone curious about their digestion can wear the device with the myDige app. Research teams use the same hardware with our Researcher app across a study cohort. For researchers
DigeHealth is a general wellness product, not a medical device — it doesn't diagnose, treat, or monitor any medical condition. Diet, stress, and sleep are widely recognised as playing an important role in digestive comfort. By helping you track how your body responds to these factors day to day, DigeHealth may support people who want to live well with conditions such as IBS, coeliac disease, or food intolerances, as part of a healthy lifestyle.
Yes — it is one of the main reasons people wear it. Log a meal (photo-based logging estimates the ingredients and their carbohydrate, fat, protein and fibre content) and see the response that followed. Over weeks, you can compare the period before a diet change with the period after it instead of guessing. See how it works
We assess the accuracy of detecting and classifying bowel sounds based on labelling completed by a gastroenterologist. There is no gold standard for measuring bowel sounds. See how it works
We spent years developing our microphone, active noise cancelling and denoising techniques to get the best quality bowel sound recordings possible in the real-world. We filter-out periods where we know our recordings are too noisy, so you will only see numbers you can trust. Hear real recordings
Heartrate on the abdomen is tricky, particularly during exercise due to movement artifacts. This is why we don't try to replace your finess tracker; we integrate with a range of 3rd party wearables. We focus on measuring what matters most to digestion: resting heartrate and overnight HRV. See how it works
We don't yet have validated sleep staging implemented in our product, but we do monitor bowel activity during sleep to give insights about overnight digestion. We pull validated sleep scores from 3rd party wearables to enhance your experience. See how it works
Many factors, not just the calories in a meal, impact bowel sounds. We can detect different responses to a small or a large meal but our products are not validated to estimate calorie density of meals. We wouldn't trust anyone who claims they can! Instead we integrate with AI food logging to estimate calories based on images. The science
No. DigeHealth products are not medical devices, as such, and we make no medical claims about them. They are intended for research and personal use only. We have completed the mandatory safety and compatbility testing required for commercial CE and FCC-marked consumber devices.
No. It measures your gut activity and reports it back to you. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or monitor any disease, and nothing it shows you should be read as a medical finding.
No. It is available directly in companies where we ship — no prescription.
No — and please don’t. Nothing here replaces your doctor. Keep following their advice and keep taking prescribed medication. If something in your data concerns you, bring it to them rather than acting on it yourself, and seek medical care for new or severe symptoms.
Raw audio never leaves the wearable — it is analysed on the device and discarded. What syncs to your account is the result: your gut activity, your heart metrics and the events you logged. That is stored securely in servers hosted in Switzerland and is visible to you alone. Read the privacy policy
Yes. We are a Swiss company and comply with both regimes. Read the privacy policy
Yes. You can ask for a copy of your personal data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to erase it, and we respond within one month. Email [email protected].
No. We do not sell personal data and never have. We share it only with the processors that run our service, where the law requires it, or with your explicit consent — each of which is listed in our privacy policy.
The wearable is $349 as a one-time purchase, with the Core app free forever and a month of Premium included. It isn’t on general sale yet — early access units ship Q4 2026, and the way in is the waitlist. See pricing
The waitlist is free and takes an email address — . If you are a clinician or researcher who would like to run a study with us, get in touch instead.
Early access units ship from Switzerland, and we are confirming the full list of destinations ahead of the Q4 2026 launch. Join the waitlist and we will tell you what is available where you are as soon as we can. Ask us about your country
The myDige app is available on the Apple Store and Google Play stores, but you need a DigeHealth device to make it really work. See what’s included
It is built for study teams: enrol participants and work with processed acoustic, PPG and motion data. Research devices can be configured to retain high-fidelity raw audio for ethics-approved studies. For researchers
Processed data comes in standard formats, ready for your statistical pipeline, with CSV export coming soon.
We co-design the protocol and endpoints with you, provide devices and the Researcher app for your cohort, and support the analysis. Start by telling us your research question. Get in touch
