Seqera
Workflow orchestration and data governance for bioinformatics and drug discovery, built on Nextflow.
Overview
Seqera is the bioinformatics platform built by the creators of Nextflow, designed to bring data, pipelines, and teams together across the full spectrum of life sciences research. Serving the world's leading scientific organizations, Seqera centralizes data management, orchestrates computational workflows, and ensures every analysis is governed, auditable, and reproducible — enabling teams to get to insights faster and trust the results when they arrive.
The platform powers agentic bioinformatics at scale, supporting everything from large-scale genomics to advanced AI-based drug discovery. Seqera connects bioinformaticians, lab scientists, and external partners in a unified environment where scientists and agentic workflows operate side by side, delivering measurable outcomes including reductions in cloud costs, runtime, and time-to-results, as well as dramatic increases in sample throughput and genomic surveillance capacity.
