DNA Script

DNA Script is a synthetic-biology company founded in 2014 in Paris, France, with US operations in South San Francisco, that pioneered Enzymatic DNA Synthesis (EDS) — a water-based, template-free, lower-carbon alternative to phosphoramidite chemistry. Its flagship product, the SYNTAX System, is a benchtop DNA printer that synthesizes, desalts, quantifies and normalizes up to 96 custom oligonucleotides in parallel (up to 120 nt on-instrument, up to 500 nt via ordered EDS oligos), giving laboratories same-day, on-premise production of custom DNA. The instrument is paired with SYNTAX System Software on the instrument touchscreen and a separate Console Software layer — offered cloud-hosted or on-premises — through which customers upload sequence files, design plate templates, schedule and monitor synthesis runs across a fleet of instruments, track reagent and consumable levels, and review run reports. The company also markets the ENCODEX DNA biomanufacturing platform for larger-scale enzymatic DNA production. DNA Script publishes no public developer portal, no OpenAPI and no documented API program; the Console Software is reached through a customer-authenticated GraphQL endpoint at syntax.dnascript.com.

DNA Script publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Synthetic Biology, Life Sciences, and DNA Synthesis.

DNA Script’s developer surface includes FAQ, support, engineering blog, product news, YouTube channel, and 16 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/dna-script: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →

  name: DNA Script SYNTAX Console GraphQL API
  description: 'The GraphQL API behind DNA Script''s SYNTAX Console Software — the fleet-management layer customers use to
    design plate templates, upload oligo sequence files, schedule and start synthesis runs, monitor instrument status, consumables
    and run progress, and retrieve run reports across their SYNTAX instruments. It also carries organization, user, group,
    project and license administration. The endpoint is publicly reachable and answers anonymous GraphQL introspection, but
    every query and mutation returns 401 Unauthorized without a customer session: this is a product API for SYNTAX owners,
    not a published developer API. DNA Script publishes no developer portal, reference documentation, SDK or OpenAPI for it.'
