Show Notes
Scott Hickle, co-founder and CEO of Throne Science, joins Forward Thinking Founders to talk about building the world's first hands-free gut health tracker — a clip-on toilet device that monitors digestive health, hydration, and prostate health automatically with every flush. Scott shares how the idea started at a poker game in Austin, why his mom (a geriatrician) was the unlikely catalyst for the pivot, and how they went from a Raspberry Pi in a Tupperware box to a consumer product shipping today. We get into the science of stool consistency, urine osmolality, and why your prostate sounds different when it's struggling — plus the long-term vision of building the first continuous cancer screening device for six types of cancer.
