Pipette Is Now Open for Everyone

Most bioinformatics bottlenecks aren't scientific. They're logistical. A biologist has sequencing data ready to analyze but doesn't have the coding skills, the compute setup, or access to a bioinformatician who isn't buried in other requests. The data sits there. The science waits.

Pipette is a bioinformatics AI agent that removes that bottleneck. You describe your dataset and analysis goals in plain language, and Pipette runs the full pipeline for you. Environment setup, tool selection, execution, provenance tracking. You get publication-quality figures, downloadable results, and a report that documents every parameter and software version used.

What's Available

Pipette supports a wide range of workflows across genomics, transcriptomics, microbiome analysis, and metagenomics through specialized compute environments. Bulk/single-cell genomics, statistical analysis, variant calling, literature search, and more, all through a single conversational interface.

Every analysis generates a provenance report covering inputs, parameters, software versions, outputs, and the underlying code. Useful for reproducibility, lab documentation, and not losing your mind when a reviewer asks how you generated Figure 3.

Pricing: Credits, Not Subscriptions

We talked to our early users about pricing. The consistent preference was pay-as-you-go over a monthly subscription, and that makes sense. Research doesn't follow a predictable schedule. Some weeks you're running multiple analyses. Other months you're writing or waiting on samples. A subscription charges you regardless. Credits don't.

You buy credits and use them when you run analyses. No monthly fees, no tiers, no waste.

To put actual numbers on it: a complete 8-sample bulk RNA-seq analysis, from raw FASTQs through QC, alignment, differential expression, and figure generation, can cost as little as $9 in USD. Full DESeq2 workflow with PCA plots, volcano plots, heatmaps, and a scientific report included.

Details on credit usage and cost estimates for different analysis types are at pipette.bio/credit-usage.

Who Should Use This

Wet-lab biologists who need results without learning to code. Small labs without dedicated bioinformatics support. PIs who want a consistent, auditable record of analyses that doesn't walk out the door when a postdoc leaves. And bioinformaticians who'd rather spend their time on interesting problems instead of re-running routine pipelines.

Get Started

Pipette is free during beta. Sign up at pipette.bio and run your first analysis.

If there's a tool or workflow you'd like supported, use the feedback button in the app. We're building this based on what researchers actually need.
