Keep your raw files useful over time
Test once. Keep getting guidance.
A sequencing provider hands the file to you. Fern Gene helps that file stay useful afterwards.
By default, raw genome files stay on your own device.

Why this is not just another sequencing report
You are not buying another test. You are making the one you already did stay useful.
WeGene, BGI, and other sequencing providers solve testing and delivery. Fern Gene solves what can keep happening after the raw files come back to you.
If you only want a single test and a single report, Fern Gene is not the point. If you want raw files to stay useful for years, this is where Fern Gene starts to matter.
Who feels the value fastest
These groups usually feel useful fastest.
If you fit one of these situations, you are more likely to see the difference from a one-time report quickly.
Already tested
You already tested with WeGene, BGI, 23andMe, or another provider
These users usually understand Fern Gene fastest, because the question is no longer whether to test again. It is how to keep the raw file useful afterwards.

You are making marriage, pregnancy, or family-history decisions
These users care more about carrier review, joint review, and what deserves follow-up than about a static report they read once.
See what partner review meansLong-term health management
You care more about medication, lab follow-up, and family risk over time
This group usually feels the value through medication differences, lab follow-up, and long-term risk that stays visible over time.
See what Fern Gene already coversAdvisors and high-trust relationships
You work in insurance, family advisory, or long-cycle health relationships
This path is better for explaining why raw files are worth keeping and how later import and long-term follow-up fit together.

You should not have to guess what already works. These numbers show the areas, rules, content, and evidence already running today.
What is a SNP?
A SNP is a common single-letter difference in the genome.
A single SNP is not your destiny. But many SNPs together can help explain medication response, health risk, metabolism, and longer-term body differences.
Fern Gene is not about overdramatizing one marker. It is about turning many evidence-backed differences into results you can actually keep using.
Start here
Do you already have data, or do you still need sequencing?
Pick the right starting path and the next step becomes much easier.
I already have data
Start directly from the raw files you already own
Best for people who already got raw files from 23andMe, WeGene, BGI, or another provider.
You can start now with
- • txt / VCF / gVCF / .genomesprofile
- • iPhone first, Android already validated on a real device
- • Heavier BAM / CRAM flows are better on desktop
- 1Import the files you already have
- 2Build an encrypted local profile on your device
- 3Start seeing prompts, detail views, and partner-review entry points
I do not have data yet
Start with a lab that will hand over raw files
If this is your first test, first make sure you will actually be able to keep the raw files afterwards.
Fern Gene does not run sequencing. We help you keep using the files after you receive them.
- 1Check whether the lab delivers standard raw files
- 2Keep files like VCF, gVCF, or CRAM for future use
- 3Come back to Fern Gene after delivery
Current coverage
What you can already see today.
There are already 17 result areas live today. The first ones people usually feel are medication, health risk, hereditary disease, WGS specialty review, and nutrition, with labs, food, training, and more careful reading after that.
P0 · The fastest way to feel value
These are the areas most likely to feel useful right away.
If you want to know whether import matters now, start with these five.
P1 · More useful over time
These areas become more useful over time.
They may not be the very first thing you open, but they become more useful as you keep using the product.
Further reading · Growing, but shown more carefully
These areas show up first as supplementary reading.
These areas do not lead the homepage. They show up first through detail views and supplementary reading.
Where your results come from
The results you see start with evidence that has already been checked.
Fern Gene does not turn the latest page it finds into a result. What you see starts with clinical and public evidence that has already been checked.
- • ClinGen, ClinVar, and GeneReviews for hereditary disease and clinical boundaries
- • Pharmacogenomics evidence for medication-response and dosage differences
- • GWAS Catalog, PubMed, and Europe PMC for risk, nutrition, lifestyle, and lab follow-up
How new research is handled
Research keeps growing, but it does not automatically turn into homepage conclusions.
SNPedia and public literature still surface new leads. Those leads are examined first and checked carefully before they move any further.
- • Ancestry, psychology, and research projects are better treated as supplementary reading for now
- • Infection resistance and exposure risk are handled more carefully inside detail views
- • Work that is still being checked does not turn into homepage prompts
Research in progress
Alongside the live product, we are still pushing genomics, RNA, and protein research forward.
What you see in the product still starts with checked genomics interpretation. At the same time, we are continuing AI-driven work across genomics, RNA, and protein research.

New research leads
This section shows research that is still underway. It does not mean those outputs already appear as homepage conclusions. What you see today still starts with checked genomics interpretation.
What you see after import
See the result first. Go deeper only when you want to.
Fern Gene does not start by dumping a long report on you. It puts the most useful thing first.
Homepage prompts on a real Android device
Weekly guidance
See the most important prompt first.
The homepage starts with a small number of things worth looking at now instead of forcing everything onto the screen at once.
- • Often about sleep, nutrition, or medication response
- • Results keep updating as the rule layer evolves
- • Readable in both English and Chinese
Expanded detail view
Evidence Room detail
Open detail only when you want the why.
Every result can open into explanation, next steps, and evidence context without forcing you to read a long report first.
- • Summary first, reasoning second
- • More private views stay unlock-gated
- • Written to stay short, clear, and easy to read
Partner review entry point
Partner review
Bring your partner in when the decision is real.
If you are planning for marriage or pregnancy, you can run a joint review without exchanging raw genome files.
- • Focused on shared risk, not social gimmicks
- • No raw-file exchange required
- • Built for real relationship decisions
How privacy works
Less imagination. Clearer boundaries.
Raw files stay on your own device by default
The default path is local import and local analysis, not handing your raw genome files to another cloud database first.
The long-lived object is a compact encrypted profile
The system prefers encrypted compact profiles and local runtime state instead of keeping heavier, higher-risk raw files around by default.
Online services only use minimal status information
Partner referral, support diagnostics, and future entitlement sync work on minimal status information instead of raw VCF, gVCF, BAM, or CRAM files.
Where to start today
The platforms move at different speeds, but where to start is already clear.
iPhone
The main commercial path for phase 1 and the target for the most complete consumer experience.
Android
Already validated on a real device for onboarding, import, results, Vault, partner review, and policy screens.
macOS
Better suited to heavier files and companion desktop workflows than to being the main consumer entry point.
Windows
The Windows client is now in release preparation and will follow the same desktop-companion role as macOS for heavier workflows.
Frequently asked
Start with the questions people ask most.
Can I use data I already got from 23andMe, WeGene, BGI, or another provider?
Yes. If you can download and keep a raw file, Fern Gene is not asking you to test again. It is the layer that keeps that file useful afterwards.
Will Fern Gene take my raw genome files?
Not by default. The core path is local import and local analysis.
Why not just use the report from WeGene or BGI?
Because their main job is testing and report delivery. Fern Gene is about what you can still see after the raw file is back in your hands. The two paths stack instead of replacing each other.
Why should I look at labs first if I have not tested yet?
Because the first important decision is whether you will really receive standard raw files afterwards.
What is partner review?
It lets two people run a joint review without exchanging raw genome files, which makes it practical for marriage and pregnancy planning.
Which platforms are supported now?
Today, the easiest place to start is iPhone or Android. macOS and Windows are better suited to desktop import and heavier files.
