Genomic infrastructure for the next era of the human species.

Haeckel is our first product.

Help us test Haeckel before it is finished. Some of you will recognize the work.

Statistical modeling only. Non-clinical.

Our first product

Meet Haeckel.

Genomic infrastructure at global scale: built to hold the genotype, phenotype, and extended phenotype of the species, and to resolve any single genome within it.

It begins with one genome. Upload DNA in any format and a single pipeline resolves ancestry, health, pharmacology, phenotype, and lineage into one encrypted digital twin.

From there the twin can be optimized, simulated, and questioned in plain language. Push your biology to its limit, model the generations after you, trace the 100,000 years behind you.

At the scale of the species, optimization extends from the individual to the whole lineage. Each person owns their twin and controls who can reach it. Mirror is how you enter it.

The interface

A natural-language interface to the genome.

A voice avatar trained on a single genome. It answers spoken questions on ancestry, health risk, phenotype, pharmacology, and optimization, renders charts, globes, and family trees on the canvas as it explains, and retains context across sessions.

Voice · face capture · remembers every session
The action layer

Optimization of the living phenotype.

Biomarkers, wearables, supplements, sleep, cognition, hormones, and body composition are tracked and cross-referenced against the genome through the Deterministic Biological Knowledge Graph, which flags drug-gene conflicts before administration.

The collective

Vector similarity across consented genomes.

Members are matched on shared ancestry, haplogroups, and goals through 1536-dimensional embeddings. A candidate finder parses natural-language queries and generates an explanation for each match. Consent is two-tier: recommendations opt-out, AI search opt-in. Private messaging is built in.

The forward layer

Polygenic modeling of offspring.

Two genomes are combined to project offspring traits through Mendelian inheritance and 6 independent polygenic score methods. Embryos are compared side by side. For supervised IVF, the Heritage program operates inside partner fertility clinics where law permits.

The retrospective

Ancestry inference and lineage reconstruction.

An interactive 3D globe of genetic history. 60+ populations are resolved against peer-reviewed references, with migration arcs traced across 100,000 years. Y-DNA and mtDNA haplogroups are mapped to their deepest known roots, alongside historical figures on the same tree.

22M+variants

22 analyzers over the raw variants.

22 analytical modules under one tab bar. Health risk across 89 genes with penetrance. Phenotype prediction for eye, hair, and skin via HIrisPlex. Pharmacogenomic alerts including FDA Black Box warnings. Nutrigenomics, HLA typing, CNV detection, runs of homozygosity. Every SNP searchable, every variant explained.

Ancient DNA

Compare your DNA to the ancients we hold.

From Ötzi the Iceman and Tutankhamun to Cheddar Man, the Neanderthals of Vindija Cave, and the Denisovans of Siberia. Every profile carries real genomic data from peer-reviewed literature, and each one is placed on the same tree as you. Open Mirror with them and ask them anything.

The methods

Built on peer-reviewed science.

The invitation

We need you to test it with us.

Haeckel is live at haeckel.ai, in early access. We're not launching a finished product. We're refining it with the people who use it first.

Every conversation with Mirror, every ancestry run, every note you send us shapes what Haeckel becomes. Your feedback is how the tool finds its form.

Because this tool must exist in its most perfect form. For humanity.
