Science-first. Built to last.
GeneDance was founded by microbiome scientists who believed that complex sequencing workflows should be accessible to every research team, not just those with dedicated bioinformatics departments.
Democratising microbiome science
The microbiome is one of the most powerful levers in human health, agriculture, and environmental science, yet turning raw sequencing data into defensible insights has remained slow, expensive, and technically demanding.
GeneDance changes that. Our platform handles the entire workflow from sample receipt through sequencing, bioinformatics, and publication-ready reporting, so your team can focus on discovery, not data management.
We are headquartered in Switzerland and operate under strict Swiss and EU data protection law, providing the data sovereignty that regulated industries and academic institutions require.
Built from the bench up
The problem we couldn't ignore
Our founders, working at the intersection of sequencing technology and translational research, kept encountering the same bottleneck: powerful sequencers, but weeks of manual bioinformatics standing between data and decisions. They set out to fix it.
Platform launch
After two years of development and early-access testing with academic and industry partners, GeneDance launched its integrated portal, combining logistics, sequencing, and automated bioinformatics under one roof for the first time.
Growing with our community
GeneDance serves R&D teams, academic institutions, and PR & marketing functions across Europe and beyond. We continue to expand our pipeline portfolio and reporting capabilities based directly on client feedback.
Our core values
Scientific rigour
Every pipeline we run, every report we generate, and every workflow we automate is grounded in peer-reviewed methodology. We publish our methods sections so your results are always reproducible and defensible.
Data sovereignty
Your data is yours. Stored in Switzerland, encrypted at rest and in transit, and never used for purposes beyond delivering your results. GDPR compliance is not a checkbox for us, it is a design principle.
Radical transparency
No hidden fees, no opaque algorithms, no black-box reports. Our pricing is published, our pipelines are documented, and our results include the methods sections your collaborators and reviewers need.
Accessibility for all teams
Whether you are a solo academic or an enterprise R&D division, you should have access to the same quality of microbiome analysis. Our tiered pricing and free Free Trial make that possible without compromising on rigour.
