The platform
Liragen Insights is our RNA-Seq analysis service, delivered as software. Point it at an NCBI accession or your own raw data, and it returns interactive reports that interpret themselves — every write-up generated from your own results rather than a generic template. No code, no installs.
What you get
Automated DESeq2 differential expression and GO/KEGG enrichment — pre-configured, or customized to your design. Start from raw FASTQ or a public NCBI accession.
29 publication-ready, interactive reports — Volcano, PCA, heatmaps, pathways, and networks — each with an AI-written interpretation customized to your dataset, not a boilerplate summary.
Explore in the browser with point-and-click filters — no coding, no installs. Adjust thresholds and every plot and its interpretation update live.
Runs in a secure cloud environment with online access to your outputs — scale up without managing servers or software.
The difference
Everything the usual RNA-seq routes make you assemble yourself — the pipeline, 29 linked reports, and the interpretation — is built in and done for you.
| Capability | Liragen Insights You | R / DESeq2 (code) | Workflow platforms | Other web tools |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No coding required | ✓ | — | ~ | ✓ |
| AI-written interpretation | ✓ | — | — | — |
| 29 interactive, linked reports | ✓ | DIY | ~ | ~ |
| Automated pipeline (DESeq2 + GO/KEGG + networks) | ✓ | DIY | ✓ | ~ |
| Hosted — nothing to install | ✓ | — | ~ | ✓ |
| Start from NCBI accession or your raw data | ✓ | ~ | ✓ | ~ |
✓ = built in · ~ = partial / depends · DIY = possible but you build it · — = not typically available. Other tools have their own strengths; this reflects the common experience.
See it in action
Most platforms hand you the same static PDF whatever your data says. Every Insights interpretation is generated from your results — your contrasts, your DEG counts, your top genes by name, your effect sizes — and rewrites itself the instant you move a threshold. Change the cutoff and the words change with it. Browse the full suite below, or open a live example in the app.
A bulk RNA-seq project ships 23 interactive reports; a single-cell project ships all 29, adding the Single-cell group below. Select any report to open its guide in the user manual.
What’s supported
What you can run through Liragen Insights today.
Bulk RNA-seq differential expression, and single-cell RNA-seq.
Public NCBI / SRA accession IDs, or your own raw data (FASTQ) via a sample sheet (Excel / CSV / TSV).
Model and non-model species with a reference annotation. GO / KEGG enrichment where annotation exists; STRING-based PPI for supported species.
DESeq2 differential expression, GO / KEGG enrichment, co-expression & PPI networks, and clustering.
23 interactive reports for bulk RNA-seq, 29 for single-cell, each with AI interpretation, plus downloadable result tables and publication-ready figures.
Turnaround depends on sample count and data size. Tell us the shape of your experiment and we will confirm before you commit — ask us.
Not sure your data fits? Ask us — we’re happy to confirm supported organisms and formats.
Beyond a single project
If you are analysing for other people — a core facility, a sequencing service, or your own customers — the questions change from “what does it do” to “how does it fit what we already run”.
Create projects through an API instead of a form, so a batch of samples becomes a batch of projects. Available to partners; ask for the details.
Charged per sequenced library, with rates that improve against committed annual volume. Re-running reports on data you have already processed is free.
White-label partners get their logo and colours on the reports and on the user manual, so what reaches the researcher is yours.
Tier-1 support — usage and interpreting results — sits with you, with training and materials from us. Pipeline and platform issues are ours, with a defined response commitment.
Hosted by default. SSO/SAML, and on-prem or private-cloud deployment where data cannot leave your infrastructure.
The worked case study runs a public dataset end to end, from accession to interpreted reports.
