Stories
Dr. Brandon Colby
Understanding a lifelong blistering condition
Sequencing.com founder Dr. Brandon Colby describes using whole-genome sequencing and the company’s disease-screening tools to identify a KRT14 variant behind lifelong hand and foot blistering. He says the finding gave him clarity and helped him and his wife make family-planning decisions.

Getting more from a complex genetic report
Prince found that a coaching session made Sequencing.com easier to use and understand. Working through the platform with Erika Schwarz Taylor helped connect the available genetic information, uncover features he had missed and make the results feel more approachable for his own research.

$299FAQs
Is a year of the plan included?
No. Includes one month of Premium, starting after sequencing. The plan then automatically renews month-to-month unless you downgrade to Free at least one day before renewal. The kit-included plan has no annual commitment. Paid tools and updates require the applicable active plan.
What do I keep after downgrade?
Raw files and separately purchased marketplace reports can remain on Free. Subscription SequencingAI reports and chat are deleted when downgrade takes effect.
Are reports reviewed by a clinician?
No included human results consultation established. AI summaries are not clinician-reviewed interpretation. Most AI outputs are not human reviewed.
How are AI and genetic data used?
AI can share genetic/report/chat data with third-party services that may retain some indefinitely. Most AI outputs lack human review. Separate research consent does not eliminate service, advertising, legal or business-transfer disclosures.
Can I return or refund the kit?
Kit sales are final and nonrefundable at order, including delays. Specific repeated-sample-failure exceptions apply; plan fees are nonrefundable without routine prorations. First and second sample failures can receive free reprocessing/replacement; a third failure has a shipping/handling-qualified refund exception.
How long can I wait to return my sample?
Return within 180 days of ordering or at least 90 days before printed expiry, whichever is sooner. Activate before return; unactivated lab samples can be destroyed after 30 days.
