Colossal Laboratories & Biosciences

Colossal Laboratories & Biosciences (Colossal Biosciences) is a Dallas, Texas based genetic-engineering and de-extinction company founded in 2021 by entrepreneur Ben Lamm and Harvard geneticist Dr. George Church. It applies ancient-DNA sequencing, comparative genomics, CRISPR multiplex gene editing, cellular engineering and artificial-womb research to functional de-extinction and endangered-species conservation, with active programs on the woolly mammoth, thylacine, dodo, dire wolf, moa and bluebuck, plus the Colossal Biovault biobanking program and an EEHV vaccine effort for elephants. The company has raised roughly $435M through a $200M Series C in January 2025, spun out Form Bio (computational biology software) and Breaking (plastic degradation), and funds the nonprofit Colossal Foundation. Colossal publishes no product or developer API, no developer portal and no OpenAPI of its own; the machine-readable surface on colossal.com is the WordPress REST API (wp/v2) that serves the newsroom, science and species content, media library and site search as JSON, alongside a WordPress MCP Adapter endpoint that is present in the route index but authentication-gated. No first-party GitHub organization, SDK, package or /llms.txt was found.

Colossal Laboratories & Biosciences publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Comments API, Discovery API, Media API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Genomics, Genetic Engineering, and Synthetic Biology.

Colossal Laboratories & Biosciences’ developer surface includes engineering blog, product news, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/colossal-laboratories--biosciences: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?
