$99

Upload your VCF or TXT file from any sequencing provider and we'll return a fully-annotated .genome bundle ready for you to explore. Imputed where needed, VEP-annotated, PharmCAT-called, PGS-scored.

.genome files use 3–10Γ— fewer tokens and are 10–20Γ— more accurate when interpreted by AI.

Your DNA stays private and remains in your full control.

We're a Public Benefit Corporation legally bound to never sell or license your individual genetic data. It's your data and always will be.

What is a .genome file?

.genome is an open file format for genome data, designed to be read and interpreted by AI systems. It uses the same underlying data as a VCF, but restructures it so models can process it reliably, with clear provenance and without relying on partial parsing or guesswork.

Under the hood it's not one flat file but a structured, queryable bundle (format version .genome/1.0). Your variants are stored in fast columnar tables alongside the annotations that give them meaning β€” trait associations, the supporting research behind them, gene-level context, polygenic scores, and pharmacogenomics β€” so a tool can answer questions against your whole genome directly.

A whole-genome sequence fills it out completely (~4.3M variants); uploads from array-based tests like 23andMe or Ancestry come in smaller (~600k). Either way, it's a single portable file that travels with you.

Compared to raw VCF files, .genome reduces token usage by 3–10Γ— while reducing factual errors by 10–20Γ—.

What can I do with it?

A .genome file is a portable, AI-readable container for your genetic data. The point is that it travels with you and works inside any tool that can read a file, so you're not locked into one platform's interface.

Concretely, you can:

  • Drop it into an AI coding/agent tool β€” Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or anything that can ingest a file β€” and treat your genome as queryable context. The file format (.genome/1.0) is structured so the model can parse variants, archetype data, and phenotype context directly.
  • Ask open-ended questions β€” "What does my genotype suggest about caffeine metabolism?", "Which of my variants relate to sleep?", "How should I read my stress-recovery axis?" β€” and get answers grounded in your actual data rather than generic advice.
  • Test hypotheses β€” pull in a paper or a new GWAS finding and ask the tool to check it against your specific genotypes, so you can see whether a result actually applies to you.
  • Stay current β€” re-run analysis as new research lands (ClinVar/PharmGKB updates, new associations) without re-sequencing. The same file gets re-interpreted against newer knowledge.
How long does it take?
Whole genome sequencing at 30x typically takes 2–3 weeks from when the lab receives your sample. 100x sequencing turnaround time is available on request.
Is the lab real?
Yes. Samples from customers in the United States and Canada are processed through CLIA- and CAP-accredited clinical laboratory infrastructure inside the USA.
What about privacy?
Humankind Bio, Inc. is a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation β€” legally bound by its charter to never sell or license your individual genetic data. We don't sell your data, share it with researchers, or use it to train models. There is no "optional research program." You can request sample and data deletion after your file is delivered. All samples are deleted by our lab within 30 days. Our lab never holds PII.
Can I use this for medical decisions?
No. This is raw data, not a medical test. For clinical interpretation, take the file to a physician or clinical genetics service.
Where do you ship?
We currently accept orders in the United States and Canada. If you're outside those countries, email waitlist@genome.computer to join the waitlist.
