The Collection Pad
The placement of the collection pad was designed specifically for women and grooves capture and guide urine directly to the detection and collection point, so no need to aim.
The Clip-On Design
Cayla sits discreetly at the front of your toilet, secured by a universal mounting clip. No plumbing or DIY required. Ready to go within a few seconds. During a reading Cayla searches for the closest device assigned to a user and associates the result with them. If in the unlikely case it picks up on another device the reading can be reassigned on the app.
Intelligent Detection
An onboard temperature sensor identifies the start of a flow instantly, triggering the internal micro-pump to take a sample, ensuring the device is activated passively and only by urine (not when you flush).
Cutting-edge Accuracy
Cayla uses aptamer sensors, which are specially designed DNA strands that bind to the hormone and release an electrical signal which we can measure. Offering the most accurate hormonal reading in consumer products.
The Clean-Cycle
After every reading, the device pulses a small amount of cleaning solution through the system, refreshing the sensors and flushing the tubing so every test is as sterile as the first.
The power of DNA
Cayla uses aptamer technology, artificial DNA strands that bind to specific hormones. As they bind, they generate an electrical signal that we measure to determine the levels of each hormone.
Step 1
Hormone Present
The micro-pump draws the urine sample through the microfluidic channels and onto the sensor pad.
Step 2
The Hormone Binds
The hormone binds to the aptamer, releasing electrical signals.
Step 3
The Signal is Measured
The electrical signals are measured and amplified, creating a digital representation of the hormone levels.
The Pods
Intelligent Pod System
Cayla is equipped with both a sensing pod and a rechargeable battery pod that handle sensing, cleaning, and calibration. Simply swap out the pods when needed and you're done.
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| The Sensing Pod | A single replaceable pod containing your 4-hormone sensor array and the cleaning solution reservoir. |
| Lifespan | 90 days of daily monitoring per pod. The app notifies you when you have 7 days remaining. |
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| The Power Pod | A detachable, rechargeable battery pack. Snap it off, charge overnight via USB-C, and snap it back on for months of use. |
| Lifespan | What's more is we've optimised the device to only turn on when a phone is within close range to save energy usage. This means you get 10 weeks of uninterrupted use. * assuming 1 daily reading. |
