Singular Genomics Systems, Inc. is a life science technology company that develops next-generation sequencing (NGS) and multiomics technologies. The Company has developed NGS technology (Sequencing Engine), which is a platform technology for its products. The core of its Sequencing Engine consists of proprietary chemistry, including novel chemical compounds, polymers, and enzymes. Its active product development pipeline consists of two products, each of which is designed to leverage the Sequencing Engine and purpose-built to address different applications. Its first product, the G4 Sequencing Platform (G4), targets the NGS market. Its second product in development, G4X Spatial Sequencer, which leverages its sequencing technology, applying it as an in-situ readout for transcriptomics, proteomics and fluorescent H&E in tissue, with spatial context and on the same platform as the G4. The Company is also engaged in developing PX, which is a development-stage multiomics platform.
