A Single Collaborative Platform to Trace, Build, Protect, and Share Bio-innovation
From early research to commercialisation, GitLife brings structure, traceability, and security at every step of development.
Biotech is becoming programmable. IP should be too.
At GitLife, we believe synthetic biology deserves better tools, not just to build things faster, but to own and commercialise them smarter.
We understand the critical challenges facing the synthetic biology industry, such as IP protection, biosecurity risks, and regulatory uncertainty, which can hinder innovation and collaboration.
We’re building the IP layer for biology, merging the rigour of software versioning with the flexibility of the lab bench.
Whether you’re an early-stage founder, research lead, or commercial exec, GitLife helps you transform biological work into structured, living IP.


Protect Innovation Prevent IP Loss
Trace every bioasset from creation to collaboration and commercialisation with biological version control, and embedded barcode (Genosignatures) — so your innovations can’t walk out the door.
Prevent IP leakage, unauthorised reuse, and ensure biosecurity is embedded at every step.

Unlock Revenue from Hidden IP
Link licensing terms, usage rights, and ownership directly to biological assets — making it easy to track value, enforce deals, and stop underutilised IP from going to waste.

Collaborate Without Compromise
Enable secure, auditable collaboration across teams and partners — with full lineage tracking, contribution logs, and compliance-ready records from day one.
Work together without duplication, confusion, or risk.
Introducing:

The preeminent biotech solution for strain management in synthetic biology. CellRepo™ is an advanced version control and biosecurity system that catalogues and secures digital information generated throughout the strain engineering process.
Acting as a digital platform, CellRepo™ organises the wealth of data generated during cell engineering processes, fostering transparency and responsibility in research procedures. Put simply, CellRepo™ is best in class.
Upon request, CellRepo™ has the capability to generate a unique DNA Genosignature® for each digital entry. This physically links cell samples with digital records of their construction and ownership, crucial for asserting intellectual property rights.
Our innovative Genosignature® technology ensures a seamless link between digital data and corresponding living samples, enhancing traceability which is essential for intellectual property rights.
Achieve scientific breakthroughs effortlessly while ensuring data security and compliance.
Elevate your research with CellRepo™ , the leader in version control for cell editing.
Meet Our Team.
Our Products: Trackable. Shareable. Protected.
Pioneering Biological Rights & IP Management
Just as digital rights management transformed software, GitLife leading the way in biological rights and IP Management — the process of tracking, securing, and verifying the provenance, ownership, and usage of engineered biological materials.
Our platform is powered by two core technologies: CellRepo, a version-controlled bioasset registry, and Genosignatures, encrypted DNA barcodes for physical IP traceability.
The Bioasset Registry with Version Control
A Git-style platform that lets you barcode, track, and version biological assets — from engineered strains to protocols and constructs.
“CellRepo is version control for biology — everything tracked, nothing lost”
DNA-Level barcoding for IP Traceability
Encrypted, embedded DNA barcodes link engineered organisms directly to their CellRepo records — enhancing IP provenance and commercial protection.
“Genosignatures make your biological IP verifiable, portable, and enforceable”
