The Company That Turned 30 Billion Old Documents Into Your Family Story
It sells subscriptions to the past. With 30 billion records, the largest consumer DNA database around, and a growing stack of AI, Ancestry has quietly become one of the most durable businesses in consumer tech.
Genomelink
Genomelink is a consumer genomics platform - a self-described 'DNA App Store' - that lets people upload raw DNA data from services like 23andMe, AncestryDNA, and MyHeritage to unlock 400+ trait reports and deep ancestry breakdowns without buying another test kit. Operated by AWAKENS, Inc. and based in Berkeley, California, the company was founded by three genomics specialists from Japan who built it into one of the largest independent DNA-analysis sites while pushing into AI-powered genealogy (YourRoots) and clinical screening (T1D Scout).
