We make powerful computational biology tools easy to use.

The best tool feels natural to someone who already understands the concepts. Computational biology should be difficult because of the biology, not the computation! That's why we made ease of use the top priority throughout Willowbench's design. We handle the technical complexity of cloud infrastructure, you focus on what you care about.
