Your living profile
in the BHOS ecosystem

TOTO has identified a select group of companies as high-interest potential partners. This programme creates a structured, updatable profile for each — a shared source of truth that evolves as your work does, rather than going stale between conversations.

Why this exists

The problem with
traditional due diligence

The standard evaluation process is episodic and static. A presentation is made, a deck is shared, and then weeks or months pass before anyone knows what has changed. For a category moving as fast as bathroom health, that lag is a problem for everyone.

📄
What you have now
A series of disconnected conversations, decks, and follow-up emails. TOTO's team has to reconstruct your progress from fragments. You have to repeat yourself every time something new happens. There's no shared record.
⚡
What this replaces it with
A living profile: a structured, continuously updated record of your company, technology, pilots, evidence, and roadmap. You update it as things happen. TOTO's team always has the current picture. BHOS provides the shared infrastructure.
🏗️
An AI-powered data room
Your profile is structured so it can be queried, compared, and synthesised alongside other companies in the programme. This gives TOTO a consistent evaluation framework — and gives you a fair, comparable position in it.
🌐
Part of the BHOS ecosystem
Over time, your profile can become part of the public BHOS landscape scan — making your company visible to researchers, partners, operators, and investors who are navigating this category through BHOS.
What your profile captures

A consistent framework
for evaluating partners

Your profile is structured around the questions that matter most for partnership evaluation. You complete it once and update it as things change — pilots, funding, new evidence, product updates.

01
Company overview
Who you are, what you're building, your founding story, team, and current stage. The essential context for anyone coming to your profile fresh.
02
Technology and product
Your core technology, sensing modality, product state, and how it works. Latest materials and specifications — updated as your product evolves.
03
Current pilots and deployments
Where you're deployed, what you're testing, who your partners are, and what you're learning. The live picture of what's actually happening in the field.
04
Traction and commercial progress
Revenue, customers, partnerships, pipeline. What commercial momentum looks like right now — not what it looked like when the last deck was made.
05
Theory of change and health impact
How your technology translates into health outcomes. What you believe, what you've demonstrated, and what remains to be proven. Honest about the evidence posture.
06
Roadmap and partnership priorities
Where you're going, what you're looking for in partners, and what the right collaboration with TOTO might look like. Your current priorities, not a generic aspirational slide.
How it works

Four steps to
your living profile

The process is designed to be straightforward. Your initial profile takes around 30 minutes to complete. After that, updates take minutes, not days.

01
Register on Chorus
Create your organisation account on Chorus — the platform that powers BHOS's structured profile system. Select "Startup" as your organisation type and "Healthcare" as your industry. Takes two minutes.
02
Complete your initial profile
Work through the structured profile fields covering your company, technology, pilots, traction, theory of change, and roadmap. Be honest and specific — this is a working document, not a pitch deck.
03
TOTO and BHOS teams receive access
Once your profile is submitted, the TOTO evaluation team (including Kenta) and the BHOS team will receive access. You'll hear from us with any follow-up questions, and we'll arrange next steps from there.
04
Update as things progress
New pilot? Funding round? Evidence result? Update your profile directly rather than waiting for the next scheduled call. The profile becomes the shared source of truth for the relationship.
Profile visibility

You control
who sees what

Your profile has three visibility layers. You choose what becomes public as your company's engagement with BHOS evolves.

Private
Sensitive commercial detail
Financials, unreleased product details, and anything you flag as confidential stays visible only to you and the TOTO/BHOS evaluation teams.
Shared
TOTO evaluation access
Your full profile — all six sections — is visible to the TOTO team and BHOS editors. This is the working layer for the partnership evaluation process.
Public (optional)
BHOS landscape listing
If you choose, a curated version of your profile can appear on the public BHOS ecosystem map — making you discoverable to researchers, operators, investors, and other partners in the category.
