== Product == === Deep Latino ancestry DNA test === '''To crowdsource the GENOME of LATINOS, we aim to generate millions of datasets. To achieve this goal, we've developed the best-resolution ancestry service for Latinos to gain critical mass.''' '''SOMOS''' provides specific high ethnic resolution to Latino/Hispanic/Native American customers, improving on commercially available services like 23&me and Ancestry. Users can identify their Mayan, Nahua, and Huichol ancestry, among other regions and ethnic groups. We use microarray technology to genotype millions of genetic markers—allowing us to give users a deeper insight into their genetic heritage, as well as an opportunity to participate in '''decentralized research.''' We will personalize this technology with genetic markers identified within our biobank, creating an array for the Latino population—which translates into new and improved genetic services. === Developing new features for our subscription model === For our health scientific insights, we have entered a long-term partnership with Predictive Care (featured on Republic). [[File:0766433ca733b9f06e549acb59a6b763e54a5e19.png]] As we scale our research capacity and identify new genetic markers unique to the Native American/Latino ancestry composition, we will update our platform and reports with these new insights. [[File:836322a2023b22c9a837c60658b11f883abb1.png]] For end users, the product is similar to the experience of existing DNA ancestry service providers like 23andMe—except they are given '''rich, region-specific data about where their ancestors came from within Latin America.''' We have two products currently in the market: # '''Raw data re-analysis service*''' # '''Full DNA test kit''' <nowiki>*</nowiki>For users of 23andMe, AncestryDNA, My Heritage, LivingDNA, FamilyTreeDNA who want a re-analysis of their data with a specific focus on their Latin American ancestry. === Your DNA, your data = our people, our mission === We truly believe that data decentralization helps us maintain an honest and transparent relationship with SOMOS participants and users. SOMOS has partnered with '''Genobank.io''' (featured on Republic) to implement the '''SOMOS DNA Wallet''', which uses blockchain technology to allow full ownership and governance for each customer/participant over their genetic and health data.
