## About

Based in California, US, and founded in 2019 by Co-Founders Jonathan Wang and Mark Kalinich, Watershed Informatics, Inc. provides a cloud-based platform that provides a unified workspace to design, execute, and iterate through multi-omics analyses on the cloud for data-intensive biomedical research accessible by both biologists and bioinformaticians. In January 2023, Watershed Informatics, Inc. raised USD 14.50 million in series A funding led by Canvas Ventures, with participation from Accomplice and Bessemer Venture Partners.

Watershed offers the Omics Bench platform, which provides comprehensive workflows and associated visualizations for whole-genome sequencing, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, metabolomics, microbial sequencing, and protein folding. The platform provides triangulating insights across genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics with high-throughput instrumentation, AI-powered algorithms, and cloud computing. In addition, the platform offers an interconnected infrastructure purpose-built for data-intensive omics analysis. Automated, scalable computing and storage enable the processing and caching of terabytes to petabytes of data without slowdowns and enable biologists and bioinformaticians to work independently and collaborate seamlessly in a single, cohesive workspace.
