## About

Founded in 2012 by CEO Sebastian J. Schultheiss and Detlef Weigel in Tubingen, Germany, Computomics GmbH specializes in bioinformatics solutions for the agricultural industry. In August 2026, Computomics GmbH raised EUR 6.3 million in series B funding led by Convent Capital, with participation from Amathaon Capital, MBG Baden-Wurttemberg, and High-Tech Gruenderfonds.

Computomics specializes in advanced bioinformatics and artificial intelligence solutions aimed at revolutionizing the agricultural sector. Their core offerings include climate-smart breeding technology and metagenomics services, which enable agricultural breeders to analyze genomic data efficiently. The solutions provided help in understanding the complexities of genetic traits in crops, thereby facilitating rapid and adaptive breeding strategies. Computomics serves a diverse client base that includes agricultural biotechnology companies, research institutions, and farming organizations, primarily in European and North American markets. The company's technology has been employed in projects such as the annotation of complex genomes, exemplified by their work on coffee genome sequencing, which highlights their commitment to delivering high-quality, timely results that address the evolving challenges in agricultural development.

Computomics generates revenue primarily through B2B partnerships, offering subscription-based services and specialized projects tailored to client needs. Clients engage with Computomics for comprehensive bioinformatics analyses, which often involve multi-phase agreements based on the scope and complexity of the work required. For instance, a typical transaction might involve an upfront fee for initial genomic data analysis, followed by additional charges for ongoing support and further data interpretation. Their flagship services, including climate-smart breeding and metagenomic solutions, are typically structured to provide clients with enhanced insights and predictive analytics capabilities, ultimately leading to improved crop varieties and agricultural outputs.

The company plans to utilize the August 2026 funding to scale the commercial delivery of its climate-smart breeding platform and deploy its predictive technology across more commercial breeding programmes.
