One workspace, from gene to bench

Everything you need to go from a gene name to a validated, shareable primer — without leaving the browser.

Gene & transcript search

Start from a gene, not a spreadsheet

Search any gene and see every transcript variant — accession number, biotype, validation status, and length — pulled directly from NCBI. No more cross-referencing three different databases before you can even start designing.

The visualiser lines up every transcript on a single scale, so exon differences, retained introns, and UTR length are obvious at a glance before you commit to a design.

Exon visualiser

Compare transcripts before you design

All transcript variants for a gene, aligned by transcript start on one shared scale — so relative length and exon differences are directly comparable across isoforms.

It's a quick way to spot which variant you actually want to target before you invest time designing primers against the wrong one.

Primers & protocols

Design once, find it again forever

Primers you design are saved straight back against the gene and into your own library — searchable, shareable, and tied to the results that used them.

Design from a transcript

Generate primers directly from any transcript you've found, without switching tools or re-pasting sequences.

"My Primers" library

Every primer you design lives in a personal, searchable library — find it by gene, accession, or your own notes.

Log PCR & gel results

Record what happened at the bench against each primer, so your library reflects what actually works — not just what was designed.

Rate what works

Rate primers based on real results, so the next person searching knows which ones are worth trusting.

Share with friends

Add colleagues as friends and share primers with them directly — the fastest way to spread a working primer round a lab.

Search primers & protocols

Search across your own primers and the protocols you've stored, instead of digging through old notebooks and shared drives.
