Marketplace

Connecting metabarcoding data into a global, usable ecosystem.

Sequencing labs have traditionally operated in isolation, each with its own processing standards. spcfy's marketplace connects data users with specialized partner labs worldwide. Wet-lab expertise stays fully independent, while processing, quality control, and output follow the same shared standard, so results stay comparable across every lab in the network.

Why it works

Three principles behind every marketplace connection.

Unified workflows

Every order runs through the same standardized pipeline, so results stay consistent no matter which lab in the network processed the sample.

Curated quality

spcfy assesses labs for technological expertise and reliability, helping data users find partners they can trust.

Data sovereignty

Collaboration happens in a secure, private workspace. You define who owns the data and who gets access rights.

Common questions about connectivity, security, and standards.

First, you must complete the onboarding process. Then you can define your specialties on your spcfy profile and set the visibility to public. Your lab will then be visible to customers worldwide.
It's simple. You can invite labs you already work with to join the spcfy network. Once onboarded, they configure their FASTQ Entry Points and can deliver data directly into your projects. This eliminates file transfer bottlenecks and ensures immediate standardization.
No. The Marketplace is strictly for discovery and connection. The actual data exchange happens in private, secure project workspaces. As a lab, you control your visibility settings (public/private listing). As a customer, you retain full ownership and define access rights for collaborators.
This is the core of spcfy. Connected labs run samples through spcfyBASE pipelines. Regardless of where the sample is sequenced, the bioinformatics processing (e.g., for CO1, 16S, 12S) follows the same rigorous protocols, making datasets truly comparable.
Yes. The Marketplace allows you to search for partners and filter labs based on regional or technical focus, certifications, and much more. This ensures you find a partner that matches your exact research design.
