Who we work with and what backs us

What your ancestry report includes

Where you come from, with names and proportions

Your DNA compared against reference panels like 1000 Genomes and the HGDP: how much you resemble each population, which family line each part comes from, and what human species that no longer exist left behind in you.

Genetic composition

Which of the 42 ethnic groups we analyze your DNA most resembles, and in what proportion. It's calculated over about 700,000 markers in the regions of highest variation.

Maternal and paternal haplogroups

The two branches you can trace back: who each lineage descends from, where it's common, and which historical figures share it. The paternal line requires a Y chromosome.

Ancestral patterns

The traces of ancient migrations in your DNA, using the five-component ADMIXTURE model. In collaboration with Professor Joshua Banta (University of Texas at Tyler).

Neanderthal and Denisovan

How much you inherited from these species, which coexisted with Homo sapiens around 70,000 years ago. Between 1% and 4% of the genome of modern non-African humans comes from Neanderthals.

Genetic diversity

Your heterozygosity ratio compared against 26 populations from the 1000 Genomes project. Greater genetic variability protects against recessive diseases.

View by chromosome

Your composition mapped across the 22 autosomes, so you can see which stretches of your genome each origin comes from. With an educational profile of every ethnicity detected.

What your results look like

Your composition, population by population

This is what your ancestry report looks like on the platform: the estimated breakdown with its table, so you can read it at a glance or dig into the detail.

Genetics has an influence, but on its own it doesn't determine your health or your performance. These results are informational and do not constitute a medical diagnosis.

Example conversation

  1. You

    Why doesn't afternoon coffee agree with me?

  2. GeneAI

    You have the slow version of the gene that metabolizes caffeine, so it can still be affecting you several hours after you drink it. Genetics explains part of it; sleep habits and routine explain another part that matters just as much.

  3. You

    Explain it to me like I know nothing about genetics.

  4. GeneAI

    Your body takes longer than normal to switch off caffeine's effect. If you have it in the mid-afternoon, it's likely still working by the time you go to sleep.

GeneAI explains your results. It is not a medical diagnosis and does not replace consultation with a healthcare professional.

And it doesn't stop there

Everything else you can discover

Nutrition

How you process lactose, gluten, caffeine, or fat, and which vitamins are harder for you to absorb.

Fitness

Whether your profile leans more toward strength or endurance, your recovery, and your injury risk.

Longevity

The genetic traits associated with aging and long-term health.

Prevention

Your predisposition to more than 300 diseases, with the study each one is based on.

Personality

Behavioral traits with a described genetic basis: sleep, sensitivity, appetite.

Fertility

Hormonal health and conception through your genes.

Maximum privacy and security

Your data is anonymous, and only you have access to it

We don't offer relative matching, in keeping with our principle of total sample anonymity.

Scientific standard

Are DNA tests reliable?

Yes, when they use validated technology. ADNTRO analyses ~700,000 markers with an Illumina GSA chip in an ISO 17025-certified laboratory (Eurofins, Denmark), and its risk models are published in peer-reviewed journals.

  • Variants with evidence described in peer-reviewed literature
  • Informational results, never a diagnosis
  • Genotyping in a certified European laboratory
  • Results linked to the study they're based on, its population and sample size
  • UK Biobank as our validation base

What our customers say

Jessica H.

I love it. Very informative.

@roman_nfkrz Let's get into my DNA test, see what it's all about and learn some science!
MissR

Love the insights they provide to my health journey. Brilliant data points to better understand how to improve your healthcare. They always come up with new markers.

Debbie

Our results show info missing on other tests but validated by years of family tree research. Really helped pull it all more together.

@francescapsychology Understanding your background can help you understand yourself.
Tonio A.

I like the reports, very detailed.

@jaydonehistory Ready to discover what your DNA says about you?
April

My experience with them was great. An informative and upstanding company.

Frequently asked questions

Will I get my paternal haplogroup if I'm a woman?
No. The paternal lineage is read on the Y chromosome, so it only appears in men. The maternal line, which travels in mitochondrial DNA, is something we all have.
What do I need to take the test?
Just your saliva. The kit arrives at your door with everything you need and the instructions. No needles, and no fasting required.
How long until I get my results?
Between 3 and 4 weeks from when we receive your sample. We email you at every step.
Who can see my data?
Only you. We don't ask for personal data when you register the kit, so not even we can link a sample to a person.
I've already taken a test with another company. Does it work?
Yes. You can upload your file from 23andMe, MyHeritage, AncestryDNA, or FamilyTreeDNA and access our reports without testing again.
Do I have to pay for a subscription?
Not to access your reports. The subscription gives you access to updates and features like GeneAI; the first three months are free, and after that it costs €25 a year.
