OPEN SOURCE & BYOK
Free forever for researchers
Our core tools are Apache 2.0 licensed — irrevocably free. Bring your own Claude API key and run everything on your own infrastructure. No Hordago servers required.
For Researchers
Everything you need to run AI-driven biology workflows. Free forever, no credit card required.
Apache 2.0 Licensed
Core tools are open source under Apache 2.0 — free to use, modify, and distribute. This license is irrevocable.
Bring Your Own API Key
Connect your Claude API key. Your data never touches Hordago infrastructure — it goes directly to Anthropic.
Free for Academics
Individual researchers and academic institutions get full access at no cost, forever.
Get Started in Minutes
Install the CLI, add your API key, and start running experiments.
pip install hordago-cli
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY= sk-ant-...
hordago analyze --input variants.vcf

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this commercially?
Yes. Apache 2.0 permits commercial use. You can use, modify, and distribute the core tools in commercial products without paying us anything.
What data do you collect?
With BYOK, your data goes directly from your machine to Anthropic's API — we see nothing. For managed hosting customers, we collect only what's necessary for the service and document it clearly in our data processing agreement.
How does BYOK work?
You export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in your shell. Our tools read it and call the Claude API on your behalf. Nothing is proxied through Hordago servers. Your API costs appear on your Anthropic bill, not ours.
Is there a free trial for enterprise features?
Contact us and we'll set up a pilot. We work with teams to define the right scope before any contract is signed.
