Get the latest insights

Do you need to analyze sequencing data or require medical reporting service for your genetic diagnostic offering?

As a cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS) platform, CentoCloud is specifically designed to facilitate the rapid bioinformatic analysis and interpretation of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data. It achieves this by leveraging the CENTOGENE Biodatabank and external reference databases to identify, prioritize, and classify human genetic variants associated with genetic diseases/inherited diseases.

  • Automated, state-of-the-art bioinformatics pipeline
  • Phenotype-genotype unified database
  • Variant annotation, powered by advanced tools and data sources
  • Variant prioritization and classification algorithm (AI)
  • Variant filtering tool
  • 30+ publications powered by bioinformatics experts

New Feature The CentoCloud FilterTool – Learn more

New Feature
The FilterTool

The FilterTool is an advanced web-based application for genetic data interpretation – significantly reducing time- and resource-intensive processes to enable rapid and reliable diagnosis and research. The new FilterTool application seamlessly integrates with CentoCloud as an accessory and enables laboratories, medical experts, and bioinformaticians to efficiently display, filter, select, and classify relevant genetic variants identified by NGS data analysis. 

CENTOGENE’s FilterTool is one of the world’s only CE-marked In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR 2017/746) filtering applications to support experts in genomic diagnostics, following new regulatory framework from the European Parliament last year.

Get to know more about our state-of-the-art FilterTool and its intuitive, user-friendly interface in the on-demand recording of our latest webinar.
