The visual bioinformatics platform
Build bioinformatics workflows. Keep every step visible.
Design and inspect bioinformatics workflows on a visual canvas.

Scroll = execution
Scroll to run the pipeline.
Keep scrolling and a 23-node RNA-Seq workflow executes end to end — every node lights up green in sequence, exactly as it does in the editor.

Paper → pipeline
Turn any paper into a pipeline.
Drop in a DOI and BioNodulo reads the paper’s methods, then suggests a matching workflow — pre-wired nodes you open in the editor as a starting point and refine into your own analysis. A scaffold to build on, not a black box.

The library
Built-in tools. Visible environments.
943 built-in bioinformatics nodes across the stack. BioNodulo uses their package metadata to plan and provision supported environments while keeping those requirements visible before a run.

AI assistant
Describe it. Watch it build.
An agent that lives in the editor. It reads your graph, adds and validates nodes against the real 940-node registry, runs the workflow, then reads the logs and fixes what broke — so you review the plan instead of wiring every step by hand.
Bring your own key — configure the model you trust.

Live collaboration
Edit together, in real time.
Two people, one canvas. Presence cursors show who’s where, you can follow a teammate around the graph, and comment pins keep the discussion on the node it’s about — a CRDT keeps every edit in sync with no merge conflicts.
- Presence cursors & follow-user
- Comment pins anchored to nodes
- Conflict-free multiplayer editing
Run on cloud
Local canvas. Cloud muscle.
The SkyPilot-backed cloud path is in beta. Submit the same workflow representation from the canvas, choose a resource profile, and follow its status while launch canaries and production operations are finalized.
Start faster
22 bundled workflow starting points.
RNA-Seq, variant calling, single-cell, metagenomics, proteomics, spatial — open a structured workflow on the canvas, inspect it, and adapt it to your data.
Build your first pipeline in minutes.
Download the open-source desktop app and open one of 22 templates, or launch the cloud platform for RAM-heavy analyses.
