Insights
Bionano's significant software and hardware upgrades enhance genomic data analysis capabilities, strengthening their competitive position in the cytogenomics market.
Bionano's announcement of substantial upgrades across their software and computational infrastructure represents a meaningful advancement of their technical capabilities. The integration of AI in VIA 7.2 transforms OGM data analysis workflows by introducing two particularly valuable features: the ability to learn from a lab's historical interpretations to speed future analyses, and the extension of significance associated with phenotype (SAP) scoring to OGM data—capabilities that should significantly streamline the interpretation process for labs.
The expansion of Bionano Solve's control database of background structural variants by
These improvements address critical bottlenecks in genomic data analysis: interpretation time, accuracy, and computational capacity. By aligning OGM data with standard nomenclature conventions, Bionano is also addressing interoperability challenges that have historically complicated genomic data integration across different platforms. With these enhancements targeting both constitutional genetic disorders and hematological malignancies, Bionano is expanding its addressable market while simultaneously improving their core technology offering.
The phased rollout approach—beginning with 20 early access users before broader commercial release in Q4 2025—reflects a measured strategy to ensure stability before wide deployment. This comprehensive enhancement of Bionano's technical stack reinforces their position in the competitive cytogenomics landscape where analytical capabilities are increasingly differentiating factors for adoption.

- Ability for the software to continuously learn and speed interpretation of OGM heme and constitutional data with AI utilizing a lab’s prior interpretation history (VIA 7.2)
- Extension of significance associated with phenotype (SAP) scoring to OGM data for the first time and uses that score to help streamline interpretation decisions for OGM variants (VIA 7.2)
- Several pan-application improvements including alignment of OGM data with standard nomenclature conventions (VIA 7.2)
- Expanded control database of background structural variants (SVs) by
18% and improvements in sensitivity, specificity and resolution for SV detection (Bionano Solve 3.8.3) - Up to double the number of cancer samples that can be analyzed per week and expand functionality to include analysis pipelines previously available only on CPU versions of Compute servers with upgrades to software on the Stratys Compute, a server that leverages advanced GPU chips
“We are excited for these pivotal updates to VIA and Solve software to reach the market. They can enhance the ease of use and speed to interpretation for hematological malignancies and now extend these capabilities to applications for constitutional genetic disorders. In addition, these upgrades are expected to improve performance overall and accelerate analysis on the Stratys Compute hardware. I’m proud of the team for these developments and I believe they show Bionano is continuing its rich tradition of innovation in cytogenomics,� commented Dr. Erik Holmlin, Bionano’s president & chief executive officer.
