Pioneering the future of data storage through the power of DNA
Our vision is to build data infrastructure that scales at the speed of data.
By programming biology to break through the physical limits of traditional computing.
We leverage the intrinsic space and energy efficiency of biomolecules like DNA to help data center providers lower their operational expenses, and thus scale their storage and compute infrastructure.
We are building a full-stack data storage system at the intersection of atoms, bytes and genes.
From concept to reality
Anagha, frustrated with Google cloud and her academic project, conceptualizes data storage in DNA without de novo synthesis
BioCompute is set up. We are backed by Emergent Ventures, gradCapital
Incubated at Center for Cellular and Molecular Platforms (CCAMP). Work on first proof of concept begins
Set up home lab
First proof of concept achieved, we are able to write data into DNA and retrieve it successfully
Pre-seed round from 1517, gradCapital and angel investors
Set up our own lab in Koramangala, team grows to 6
Automated bio lab to accelerate scale up
Working together to make a difference
