Your Microbiome measured on the spot
Your microbiome's health impacts your overall well-being, and our platform uses AI to assess it instantly via your smartphone, simplifying monitoring and optimizing your diet.
What is the fecal smear test?
Our fecal smear test uses advanced technology to analyze the gut microbiome. By using a small sample of stool, we can quickly and reliably determine microbial composition and offer personalized intervention/diet. This method is non-invasive, painless, and provides results within minutes.
How does it work?
Sample collection
The patient easily collects a small stool sample at home.
Analysis
The sample is analyzed using advanced biotechnology that identifies specific microbial biomarkers associated with health.
Results
Within minutes the patient receives the test results, providing insights into the health of their gut microbiome.
The benefits
Quick & efficient
Results within hours instead of days or weeks.
Accurate
High reliability through advanced technology.
Non-invase
No uncomfortable procedures required.
Why Use AIBiomics Microbelink?
Traditionally, the analysis of microbial composition in the gut requires invasive fecal sampling and shipment, which can be uncomfortable and expensive. These methods involve taking samples of fecal material, sometimes culturing, and isolation of bacterial DNA, and sequencing in a certified lab, a process that usually takes weeks to produce results. The results are also often too difficult to be analysed and interpreted by none microbiome specialists. AIBiomics’s Microbelink is easily used at home with accurate results within minutes.
Easy
It provides valuable information that can help individuals, health, or maybe with gastrointestinal disorders to better manage their microbial status and improve their overall health and well-being, i.e. through adaptation of their diet. The result can be obtained by just uploading a photo to your app AIBiomics.
Accurate results
The Microbelink technology has been validated on thousands of samples, making it a reliable tool for assessing health status and identifying biomarkers associated with an aberent microbiome.
Comfortable
It is a non-invasive and easy procedure that can be performed in the comfort of an individual’s home.
Fast answers
AIBiomics is a quick and more affordable method of obtaining microbial biomarker estimates, which can be applied repeatedly through image sampling. if needed, the microbial sequencing can be performed with AIBiomics partners lab.
The Basics of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Inflammatory Bowel Disease, or IBD, encompasses two primary conditions: Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, both characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the GI tract and may involve deep tissue layers, whereas ulcerative colitis primarily impacts the colon and rectum's innermost lining. Key symptoms include persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.
What You Need to Know About Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a widespread disorder affecting the large intestine without causing inflammation or tissue damage. It's categorized into four types based on stool patterns—constipation (IBS-C), diarrhea (IBS-D), mixed (IBS-M), and unsubtyped (IBS-U). Common symptoms involve abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and changes in bowel habits.
Enhancing Quality of Life for Crohn’s Patients
Our mission is dedicated to aiding patients with Crohn’s disease in managing their condition to significantly enhance their quality of life. Through partnerships with healthcare providers and ongoing research into nutrition and lifestyle adjustments, including unprocessed foods and increased exercise, we strive to provide personalized care that addresses fatigue and stress management.
AIBiomics' vision
Our Research
We have leveraged data from thousands of patient samples across diverse societal groups to refine our computational system. This extensive dataset allows our algorithm to accurately categorize microbiome enterotypes solely based on a smartphone-captured image. Our system is in a state of continuous improvement, enhanced by regularly integrating new samples and microbial sequences, providing an increasingly comprehensive analysis. We are also actively expanding our range of applications, including AIBiomics’s innovative infant stool analysis tool. This feature enables parents to assess their baby’s nutrition and ensure an optimally healthy start in life.
Our Purpose
Our mission is to make microbiome monitoring more accessible to you. By utilizing a straightforward smartphone photograph, we eliminate the need for complex and costly sequencing or intricate bioinformatics. Now you can effortlessly keep tabs on your microbiome right from the comfort of your own home.

We Employ The Latest Research And Technology
AiBiomics collaborates with HoraizonBV and the Microbiome Sequence Facility at Amsterdam UMC, as found at Microbiota Center, to integrate our cutting-edge, AI-driven algorithms and microbial analysis techniques into our Microbelink application. The Microbelink Platform provides a swift, cost-effective, and non-invasive method for assessing your microbial status. The computational technology behind this platform is a patented asset of HoraizonBV, employing advanced machine learning and image analysis algorithms to adeptly identify patterns from a minuscule fecal sample placed on white paper and captured via smartphone camera.
“This Analysis Can Provide Valuable Information For Assessing Health Status And Recommending Optimal Nutritional Strategies For Individuals In Need.”
