Codegen alternative

Codegen (codegen.eu) offers personal reports where you upload your raw data file and buy analyses piece by piece. DNAHelper flips the model: analysis runs locally in your browser, and the free tools need no account. Here is the honest difference.

DNA analysis runs locally in your browser — your raw DNA file is not uploaded. DNA Chat is optional and off by default; genetic information is sent only after your explicit consent and may then be processed outside the EU/EEA. More about DNA Chat and privacy.
