What they do

Problem

Plant genetic and metabolic engineering is slow, expensive, and requires specialized lab infrastructure and expertise, limiting who can develop new engineered plant products.

Solution

TAXA provides a cloud-accessible platform that offers plant protein engineering, DNA assembly, and plant transformation/experiment services so users can engineer plants without running their own lab.

Who it's for

Biotech teams, researchers, and product developers who want to engineer plants without in-house lab capabilities.
