SolveBio

SolveBio is a platform for biomedical and genomic datasets that lets developers query, harmonize, and automate bioinformatics workflows over curated reference data through a REST API and first-party client libraries (Python, JavaScript, Ruby, and R). SolveBio has been rebranded to QuartzBio, a Precision for Medicine company: the solvebio.com website now redirects to quartz.bio, the legacy API is served as the QuartzBio EDP REST API on per-customer instance hosts, and the SolveBio SDKs are being deprecated in favor of the quartzbio packages (Python client end of maintenance 2026-03-31). Surfaced as a portfolio company of a16z and enriched from its public GitHub organization and package registries.

SolveBio publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Genomics, Bioinformatics, Life Sciences, and Precision Medicine.

SolveBio’s developer surface includes CLI, authentication, and 8 more developer resources.
