The answer engine for genetics
Making hard research easy.
What our users are saying
“Bystro is special - For a CEO who needs to get up to speed quickly in detailed areas, Bystro's THiNK has allowed me to get rapid, reliable information and analysis with an impressive amount of error checking. I am a fan.”
David de Graaf, PhD
Co-Founder, CEO & President at Reverb Therapeutics
“To have it actually generate, on the fly, pages of fully valid statistical analysis code, execute that code locally for security, generate volcano plots, and interpret the results was astonishing. This will be transformative for the field.”
Charles DeCarli, MD
Distinguished Professor of Neurology, Victor and Genevieve Orsi Chair in Alzheimer's Research, Co-Director, Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, Chief, Imaging of Dementia and Aging (IDeA) Laboratory, University of California at Davis
“It's Claude code in the cloud, best bioinformatics vibecoding app out right now. I’m always impressed by the stats chops of the Bystro agent, whereas out-of-the-box LLMs tend to have more limited stats input, unless you really push for more.”
Jacob Boysen, PhD
Researcher
“Bystro AI lets an investigator use the best available algorithms in the most sophisticated ways with the simplest possible interface by asking the question the same way they would to a colleague.”
David Cutler, PhD
Professor, Emory University
Origin
“After fleeing Chernobyl and losing family members to cancer, I became a geneticist. But the tools to answer important questions were locked behind technical barriers.”
Alex Kotlar — Founder & CEO
So we built the tools ourselves
Your genetic data is arguably the most powerful document in your medical chart. Unlocking it requires programming, statistics, and deep biology.
Those tools didn't exist — so we built them.
Now anyone, from researchers to curious individuals, can ask meaningful questions of their genetic data and get cited, grounded, reproducible answers.

The premise
Genetic analysis used to require technical expertise across multiple fields and six months. We reduced that to a conversation.
From publication-ready cohort analysis to understanding what your own DNA says about drug metabolism with the same grounded agentic AI to power it all.
We don't summarize papers and call it a day. We connect your actual variants with published information, ground every claim in your data, and cite every source. This is more than a chatbot, it's a scientific instrument.
