Its developer surface is the Octopod Ancestry API, a REST API at https://api.galatea.bio/api/v1 that lets clinical and research customers upload genomic source files (VCF) over HTTPS or SFTP, submit execution orders against named analysis models including the StrataRisk polygenic risk score, organize work with tags, receive HMAC-signed webhook deliveries when a file validates or an order completes, and download ancestry, PRS, JSON and PDF report results. The same API also exposes organization administration, SFTP user and SSH key management, credit/tariff accounting, dashboards and statistics.

Galatea Bio publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Octopod Ancestry API. Tagged areas include genomics, bioinformatics, ancestry, precision-medicine, and polygenic-risk-score.

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/galatea-bio: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
