Benchling

Accelerate biologics discovery with cutting-edge bioinformatics

Visit Benchling

PipeBio is a cloud-native bioinformatics platform for biologics discovery that handles upstream analysis of NGS and Sanger sequencing data. It processes raw sequence data through clustering, liability screening, and developability scoring, then passes hits directly into Benchling Biologics for registration and downstream data capture, preserving annotations through the handoff.

The platform includes a workflow editor for configuring custom pipelines and tools, sequence annotation for defining regions and liabilities, clonotype-based clustering with cluster network plots, hit picking with phylogenetic trees, and out-of-the-box visualizations such as amino acid barcharts. It accepts common sequence formats and platforms including Illumina, PacBio, 10X Genomics, and Sanger, and can combine sequence data with functional data like ELISA and SPR. REST APIs and an SDK support programmatic control and integration with existing IT infrastructure. The broader Benchling Platform adds unified data modeling, access controls, system-wide search, codeless configuration, audit trails, and SSO support, with SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001:2022 certifications.

PipeBio is suited to teams working on antibodies, TCR, peptides, and other advanced biologics modalities. Benchling offers customized solutions tailored to organizational needs, with product suites, add-on capabilities, platform tiers offering varying levels of ecosystem connectivity, data storage, and validation support, along with implementation, training, and optimization services.
