Roadmap

What’s being built.

deoxy is built in the open by a solo developer. This roadmap reflects current priorities: what's available today, what's coming next, and what the future holds.

Live

Available today

  • BAM/BAI & FASTQ import

    Local BAM/BAI and FASTQ import on Professional. Align FASTQ reads to a reference and view them in the same NGS workspace.

  • Multi-GB resumable transfer

    Resume interrupted NGS uploads so multi-GB BAM and FASTQ transfers do not start over.

  • CRISPR guide design

    Find and score CRISPR guide RNAs against your sequence.

  • Mbp-scale genome streaming

    Large genomes stream by viewport, so multi-GB sequences can be explored without loading the full file into memory.

  • SRA read mapping

    Map an SRA accession to a reference (via minimap2). Coverage, variants, and consensus. Included on Personal.

  • Shareable document links

    Read-only links for collaborators, students, and reviewers. No account required to view.

  • Broad import support

    GenBank, FASTA, EMBL, SnapGene .dna, AB1 chromatograms, and Newick trees.

  • Structure preview

    Protein structure prediction and viewing via ESMFold and AlphaFold.

  • Alignment & phylogeny

    Pairwise, MSA, distance matrices, and tree-building in the same workspace as your sequences.

  • Browser-native editor

    Cloning, feature annotation, translations, and restriction-site analysis. All in the browser, no install.

Next

In active development

  • VCF variant export

    Export called variants as VCF for VEP, snpEff, bcftools, IGV, and other downstream tools.

  • Real-time co-editing

    Collaborative editing for shared documents.

  • Benchling export

    Round-trip your data back out, not just in.

  • ORF detection

    Scan all six reading frames for open reading frames, with inline highlighting and automatic coding-region annotations.

  • Version history: preview & revert

    Step back through document history, preview any past state, and restore it with one click.

Future

Planned, but not yet in development

  • CRAM import and navigation

    Import CRAM alignments and navigate them in the editor, including large-file region views.

  • Teams & Enterprise

    Planned support for shared documents, SSO, and audit logs.

  • Bring-your-own-bucket

    Planned support for storing files in customer-owned cloud storage.

  • Classroom workspaces

    Pre-built assignment templates for cloning, primer, and CRISPR design.

  • Primer-BLAST & primer upgrades

    Target-specific PCR primer design, mismatch-tolerant binding search, and dimer / hairpin checks.

  • Expanded structure toolbox

    Load experimental structures (PDB / mmCIF or RCSB fetch), render surfaces, and measure distances and angles.

  • RNA-seq & de novo assembly

    Splice-aware RNA-seq alignment (STAR) and de novo assembly, building on the cloud mapping pipeline.
