BOLT

Innovative GPU accelerated tools for advanced genetic and genomic analyses

We are dedicated to creating and supporting the genetic and/or genomic analysis of very large data sets by developing and applying the most advanced methods.

Our tools are used across a range of species including but not limited to beef cattle, dairy cattle, sheep, chickens, horses, dogs, and trees.


These include routine weekly or monthly evaluations for some of the largest national implementations in the world, and some of the first to routinely perform single-step analyses.


Amongst others, the multi-country American Hereford Association evaluation is powered by BOLT, as is the New Zealand multi-breed dairy evaluation, as is the largest multi-breed beef cattle evaluation in the world run by International Genetic Solutions (IGS).

We also offer a fully managed web based genotype database solution including blazing fast and highly accurate parent discovery. It is used internationally in a variety of species by breed societies, genotyping laboratories, amongst others.

Please get in touch to discuss your use case.
