About Sequencing.com

Written by the company

Use Your DNA to Live Healthier, Happier, and Longer

Sequencing.com is the world’s largest platform for health-focused DNA insights, offering an unparalleled suite of advanced tools, reports, and guidance to help you understand your DNA and take meaningful action for your health and wellness.

Our flagship service is our whole genome sequencing (WGS), which decodes ~100% of your genome with unmatched accuracy. It provides all-in-one genetic screening and analysis for over 15,000 conditions and medication reactions — no need to order multiple tests. Sequencing is performed in a CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited clinical laboratory located in the United States. Our easy-to-use at-home kit requires just a simple mouth swab — no blood or needles. We provide free worldwide shipping, and turnaround time from when the laboratory receives your kit to when you receive your results is usually under 8 weeks.

Once your genome is sequenced, you'll unlock access to 100+ personalized reports and apps covering nearly every area of health, including longevity, disease prevention, medication response (pharmacogenomics), rare disease risk, mental health, sleep optimization, brain health, nutrition, ancestry, and more.

We also offer an optional subscription service that provides monthly updates to your analysis and reports based on the latest research and discoveries and includes access to advanced features such as SequencingAI Chat — your personalized AI guide — and the ability to generate dynamic AI Reports.

Fast, Accurate, and Understandable!

I ordered my kit June 1 and it is July 6 when I get an email stating we're ready to view results. It could have taken 12 weeks but instead it was 4. How amazing is that. I found they progressed daily on their work in sequencing. You watch as each step takes place. The main thing though is the ease of understanding the report. You do not need a phd to understand the results. They make it in human ease language. The science is decoded so a lay person can make sense of it all. So far this is a top notch experience. I have had dna testing via my neurologist back when it was in its infancy. I already knew I had eds. I was pleased to see that my sequencing results showed exactly what I already knew and it gave me the reassurance to believe everything else. I have vitaligo as well and this also populated on the reports. I have something unknown going on with my body and this gave me the insigght i needed to follow the path of unknowing to knowing. The moment I saw EDS detected and the vitiligo I knew I could trust the report. Thank you.

Impressive!

Shipping to Canada was surprisingly quick considering the strikes, viewing my data was really easy, I showed it to my doctor and they thought it was helpful as well. We’re hoping to use it to uncover some on-going issues with my health!

Great results!

Purchased the test because I was curious about some conditions that my grandparents have been dealing with. As it’s the whole genome I found out some interesting things. Very useful for curious people. Talked to customer support a couple of times around my results and they were super helpful. Overall easy process. They send a kit to you, ship it back to the lab, and had results in 5 weeks. It was faster than they advertised too which was nice. Would definitely recommend for people that want to dive deeper than other dna tests out there.

Updated review for sequencing.com

I initially gave a poor review about this company. My complaints were about the hidden cost of the subscription. While I still believe they could work on the transparency of the subscription, as well as more detailed reports -instead of may or may not have reports, they did refund my husband's subscription fee. Thank you sequencing.com for making it right.

do not give this company your credit…

do not give this company your credit card info!

lots of dark design patterns:
- "monthly" plan is actually a year of commitment.
- very hard to unsubscribe
- impossible to see when and why they charged you.

The worst

After months trying to download my files, support stopped answering my messages. Awful company, terrible support, sleazy tactics... If you want your genome data, go somewhere else. I will be filing a complaint with my state attorney general/consumer protection. And their response to this post was to simply give me the boilerplate instructions that their support team has been feeding me for months that does not work. The worst....

Hi Daniel - Thank you for your feedback. We understand how important access to your genome data is, and we’ve been actively working with you to resolve the situation.

Our bioinformatics team reviewed your raw data files and confirmed that all of your files were correctly generated and are fully accessible in your Sequencing.com account. Our logs show that you’ve successfully downloaded these raw data files multiple times. We’ve also double-checked the files on our end and verified that they are intact and functioning properly.

The difficulty appears to be with how your computer is handling raw DNA data formats such as VCF files. Regardless of the cause, we’re committed to helping you and have offered an alternative solution to assist with accessing the data in a different way.

We’re still here to support you and will continue working directly with you to resolve the issue.

This has been such a great experience

This has been such a great experience! I expected to wait much longer than I actually did, but the timing for results was actually really good. I have finally received answers after having so many issues since childhood, and I couldn't be more happy. The process was very easy, instructions were very easy, and mailing the kit back to them was also very easy. There is also an email that is sent every time your DNA is moved to a new testing area, so that you constantly know where/how long each part will take. Very satisfied!

I learned about the possibility of hereditary pancreatitis

I learned about the possibility of hereditary pancreatitis and immediately remembered that my paternal grandfather died from pancreatic cancer. I am now scheduling for testing for this as well as all the possible risks that were turned up in my sequencing. I have been able to show my reports to my daughters and compare them all to family medical histories and it ALL makes sense now! I LOVE THIS!

Don't recommend it

Don't recommend it. They give you 30 days premium but every time you want to view something it takes them 1-2 days to process, by the time I tried to understand it the 30 days were up. And they want $40/month after to just interpret the data. And their DNA explorer doesn't really work after the 30 days, meaning the reports you can view poof and are gone. I also discovered that the raw reports from Sequencing aren't usable for any of the 3rd party interpretive services which was disappointing to learn. They seem focused on trying to extract every dollar they can rather than offer a good experience for customers. They should run the standard gene explorer when they get the reports, instead if you want to view it click run and have to come back in a few days. Stay away, not worth it. Felt I got bait and switched.

Thank you for your feedback. I want to clarify a few key points to help address your concerns.

Every Whole Genome Sequencing bundle includes full analysis of over 15,000 rare diseases, conditions, traits, and medication reactions. While we offer an optional paid Genome Plan for those who want ongoing AI-powered updates and access to new tools, it’s entirely optional. You’ll always retain access to the reports and data included with your bundle.

All Sequencing.com AI Reports process within 15 minutes. The only exceptions are certain third-party apps from our Marketplace, which may take longer due to external processing timelines. Since your kit was completed, we’ve made major upgrades to the platform, including faster-loading Health Area AI Reports, an enhanced Genome Explorer, and Next Gen Disease Screen, including quicker load times.

As for data compatibility, we provide standard FASTQ, BAM, and VCF files—the same formats used by researchers and clinicians. While some third-party tools may not yet fully support whole genome data, our files meet industry standards and are accepted by many platforms.

Lastly, our Whole Genome Sequencing is clinical-grade 30x sequencing performed in a CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited lab in the U.S.—the same quality used by physicians and healthcare systems.

Our support team has reached out to help walk you through all of the new features.

Sequencing.com was well worth it!

I was hesitant to do genetic testing not knowing how reliable or useful it would be. I also wasn’t sure if the results would just uncover a bunch of things that would just worry me. After a year of debating it and not finding health answers, I purchased a kit. Very simple and straightforward process. I received updates on the progress of my Whole Genome Sequencing throughout the process. The data and reports are very usable and they are consistent with my results from Invitae that the doctor ordered for cancer screening. I’ve contacted customer support with questions and they are very quick to respond. The information generated is exactly what I needed as I go down my path to getting a diagnosis for my symptoms. Results showed that I am a carrier and/or likely have a high risk of 3 different conditions, one of which is hereditary (of particular importance for my children to be aware of). I’m already symptomatic of two of the three conditions, so I am currently doing additional testing (blood work) to rule out or diagnose these conditions. The third condition requires regular monitoring by my optometrist. Additionally, I now have a useful list of medications that I might have efficacy issues with or adverse reactions to. All in all, I feel more informed on my genetics and health. The results were more reassuring than concerning! I’m convinced that everybody should have genetic testing done. It’s just a wealth of information that can help keep you informed and on top of your health. Also, I ordered my test on April 26th and Received my results on June 22nd. Faster than expected.

Fast, Caring Support in a Critical Moment

I had an excellent experience with sequencing.com, thanks to their outstanding customer service. Logan and his supervisor Ken truly went above and beyond to assist me. I was in a time-sensitive situation, needing access to my reports before an important doctor’s appointment, and they stepped in right away to help. They were not only responsive and professional, but also genuinely cared about making sure I had everything I needed. Their support made a stressful situation much easier to handle. I’m very grateful for their help and highly recommend sequencing.com for both their services and top-tier customer support.

Why Sequencing.com Stands Out

I personally believe that Sequencing.com is the best Whole Genome Sequencing company for the following reasons:

1. Ability to deliver the product: On social media like Reddit, other Whole Genome Sequencing companies are reported to have wait times that go way beyond their estimates, often over six months. With Sequencing.com, I got sequenced in two weeks and could review my results with my doctor on time.

2. Social media presence: Sequencing.com is active on Reddit, answering questions publicly. This is a value-add because I can see what others ask and how Sequencing.com works with customers and potential customers to improve their experience.

3. Customer Support: I don’t think other genetics companies have active customer support. During business hours, I usually get a response or live chat within an hour, which beats my expectations. The Genome Explorer tool is a bit technical, but they’ve answered my questions and given me a lot of attention. I doubt any other company would do this.

Strongly recommended.
