Ce que fait FlowDeploy

FlowDeploy helps bioinformaticians manage their data analysis pipelines. We provide everything they need to try, run, develop, and share their pipelines. That includes integrations with AWS, Snakemake, Nextflow, GitHub, Slack, SSO, and more, as well as a clean API and web app for launching and monitoring pipelines and managing their data. FlowDeploy is built for bioinformaticians: it doesn't restrict how pipelines are built and managed, as long as a bioinformatics workflow manager like Nextflow or Snakemake is used. But it does eliminate several footguns like idle spend and accidental data egress, and it reduces the potential for users accidentally sharing credentials. FlowDeploy runs the pipelines in either our managed cloud or the customer's cloud - eliminating the need to transfer data externally. Non-computational biologists can use FlowDeploy, too: features like pipelines templates decrease the complexity to launch a new pipeline, which reduces user error and decreases the need for advanced cloud training for non-computational users.

Bioinformatics pipelines in the cloud

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform for bioinformaticians to try, run, develop, and share their data analysis pipelines. It integrates with tools like AWS, Snakemake, Nextflow, GitHub, and Slack, providing both an API and web app to launch, monitor, and manage pipelines and data securely. Our product avoids common pitfalls like idle cloud spend, accidental data leaks, and credential mishandling, and it supports running pipelines either on FlowDeploy's managed cloud or the customer's own cloud.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Mountain View, CA and work remotely as a three-person team. After YC, we would keep the company based here and remain distributed.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Mountain View is at the center of biotech and cloud infrastructure ecosystems and close to many potential early users. Remote work lets us tap talent outside the immediate area while staying connected to industry hubs.
