Roadmap

What's shipping next.

Genemap is at v1 launch. This page is the public commitment to what's actually coming next — what's in active build, what's queued for the year ahead, and the research horizon beyond. Dates are bands, not guarantees; the engineering principle is that nothing ships until the maths is on the file.

Now shipping (v1).

The platform you sign into today. 21 Tier 1 native breed-evaluation parsers across 11 countries (AU, NZ, US, BR, KR, IE, GB, ZA, IS, Nordic SE+DK+NO+FI, plus multi-country World Angus); climate and market feeds wired natively across 18 countries; AI translator for anything beyond. Both species, the full closed-loop calibration stack, the per-farm GWAS, the global daily learning loop.

Shipping · v1.0

The Genemap launch surface.

May 2026

What's live now in your account when you sign in.

Per-farm bioeconomic engine
Closed-form weight derivation across every trait from your own gross margin, kill grid and cost structure. Override any coefficient and watch ranks shift live.
Closed-loop calibration (Phase 5.0c)
Multivariate ridge regression of your realised $/head against animal EBVs — the engine learns your own kill-floor reality each season.
Per-farm GWAS · per-trait DGV (Phase 5.0d)
Ridge regression on your own genotyped animals' realised profit. A private commercial-grade evaluation, not a calculator.
21 Tier 1 native breed-evaluation parsers
Across 11 countries — AU (TACE, Hereford BREEDPLAN, LAMBPLAN, MERINOSELECT, Wagyu AGE), US (AAA, AHA, IGS, Zoetis Inherit, NSIP), BR (ANCP Nelore), KR (KAPE Hanwoo), IE (ICBF, Sheep Ireland), GB (Signet beef + sheep), Nordic SE+DK+NO+FI (NAV), ZA (Logix), NZ (SIL), IS (Fjárvís), plus the multi-country World Angus Evaluation. Climate feeds wired natively across 18 countries. AI translator handles any remaining long-tail system.
AI translator (Tier 2)
Claude-backed translator for the long tail of breed evaluations not yet natively wired. EBV/EPD/ASBV semantics preserved across systems.
Production-system modifiers
13 archetypes covering pastoral, ungtjur housed, Hanwoo intensive, Wagyu long-fed, pelt-primary, dairy sheep, shedding sheep and more — automatic re-weighting per system.
Both species, single account
Beef and sheep on equal footing. Cross-product navigation with session handoff. Country-aware vernacular across the UI.
Daily global learning loop
Anonymised regional anchors recompute nightly. Your data sharpens your account first; only aggregates flow back to the network.

Active build.

What we're engineering right now. These items have implementation specs, code in progress, and a scheduled production deploy window.

Active · Q3 2026

Methane economics wired live.

July – September 2026

Methane is becoming a price signal in every developed cattle market. Genemap is wiring it as a first-class economic axis — a live CH₄ price per country, an EBV-anchored ME (methane efficiency) trait where breed evaluations publish one, and a methane-discounted gross margin in the bioeconomic anchor.

CH₄ price feed per country
Live wiring of European ETS, NZ ETS, AU ACCU market, and emerging US/CA carbon markets. Methane priced as CO₂-equivalent at the country's marginal price.
Methane EBV ingestion
Native ingestion of methane efficiency EBVs where breed evaluations publish them (NZ, IE, AU pilots). AI translator for the rest.
Methane-discounted GM anchor
The bioeconomic anchor extends to include a per-head methane cost line. Producers see what the carbon market is doing to bull rankings in real time.
Methane override on rank page
Carbon-price slider on the live rank page. Drag from current spot to your forecast and watch the engine re-rank.
Active · Q3 2026

The sheep full surface.

July – August 2026

The beef product is feature-complete at v1. The sheep product reaches parity in Q3 with a focused build pushing every cattle capability across to sheep — wool, pelt, dairy and meat systems all on the same engine.

Sheep per-farm GWAS
Phase 5.0d ported to sheep — per-trait DGV ridge regression on producer-owned genotyped flocks.
Wool, pelt, dairy modifiers
Production system modifiers for fine merino wool, Swedish pelt-primary, East Friesian dairy sheep, and crossbred meat systems shipped as full archetypes.
Sheep daily anchors
Daily anonymised regional sheep anchors join the global learning loop.
Active · Q4 2026

Hardening the 21 Tier 1 parsers with real-catalogue validation.

October – December 2026

Every Tier 1 parser ships v1 as a scaffold — the format definition, detection signature, trait alias map and dispatcher are all in source, but each is tagged scaffold_status: "awaiting validation against real exports". Q4 closes that gap. Each breed-society pipeline gets a paired fixture suite (real CSV / Excel exports anonymised, plus the Genemap-canonical-form expected output) so every parser can be tested against the actual files producers receive from angus.org, ABCZ, KAPE, ICBF, NAV, etc.

Real-catalogue fixture validation
Anonymised real exports from each of the 21 breed evaluations, paired with their expected Genemap-canonical-form output. Every parser ships with a continuous-integration test that the platform won't regress on.
Translator regression suite
Paired Tier 1 ↔ Tier 2 outputs for the same animals so any semantic drift between native parser and AI-translator fallback is detected automatically. Confidence-scored.
Tier 3 partnership feeds
Direct API integrations with the four breed societies that publish daily updates: AAA Angus weekly, IGS bi-weekly, ICBF weekly, KAPE monthly. Producer catalogues refresh on the same cadence as the upstream pipeline.

2027 horizon.

Specced, prioritised, but not yet in active engineering. These items have a clear thesis and the data sources to back them; they ship next year as v2.

Horizon · H1 2027

Microbiome inheritance signals.

January – June 2027

Rumen and gut microbiome composition has a measurable heritability and a measurable economic effect — feed efficiency, methane production, parasite resistance, weight-gain rate on rough country. Where producers and partner labs have microbiome data, Genemap will ingest it as a new evaluation axis alongside DNA.

Microbiome composition ingestion
Standard 16S rRNA panels ingested from partner labs. Heritable components extracted and modelled as a trait on the existing engine.
Microbiome × phenotype calibration
Phase 5.0c extended — realised profit regression across the microbiome panel as well as the EBV stack.
Horizon · H2 2027

Methylation as a second epigenetic axis.

July – December 2027

DNA methylation patterns carry inheritance signal independent of the underlying genome. Where the cost of methylation arrays falls below the economic threshold for a producer, Genemap will ingest methylation panels alongside SNP genotypes as a parallel evaluation axis.

Methylation panel ingestion
Reduced-representation bisulfite sequencing and Illumina EPIC-style arrays ingested into the per-farm GWAS as a second molecular layer.
Epigenetic vs. genomic decomposition
The engine reports how much of an animal's realised performance is attributable to its genome versus its methylome — a public-facing answer to the nature/nurture question for the first time at the breeding-evaluation level.
Horizon · 2027

Cross-species genomic prediction for composites.

Across 2027

Most of the world's commercial beef herd is composite — F1 and beyond — and breed evaluations don't natively rank composites against each other. Genemap is building a cross-breed genomic prediction engine that ranks composites on the same axis as their underlying purebreds.

Multi-breed reference populations
Pooled reference populations across Angus, Hereford, Brahman, Wagyu, Limousin, Charolais, Simmental and South Devon, with admixture-aware DGV prediction.
Composite-aware ranking
A single rank page that compares pure and composite animals on the producer's own bioeconomic axis.

Long-horizon research.

The exploratory layer — items where the science is real but the economics and data infrastructure aren't yet ready for production. We track them in the open because the producer community deserves to know what's coming.

Research · 2028+

Where Genemap goes next.

2028 onwards

These items are in active research but not yet committed to a deploy window.

Whole-genome sequencing at producer scale
As WGS cost approaches per-head SNP-chip cost, Genemap will move from imputed 50K to native WGS as the primary genotype layer.
Structural variant ingestion
CNVs and large structural variants ingested as an evaluation axis where the underlying biology has economic effect (e.g. coat pattern, fertility, marbling regulation).
Single-cell ovum and sperm panels
Pre-implantation genomic prediction of embryos for ET and IVF programs, ranked on the producer's own bioeconomic axis.
Cross-species genomic networks
Comparative genomic prediction across cattle, sheep, goats and bison — useful for mixed-species producers and for transferring evaluation signal across closely related species.
RNA-expression as an evaluation layer
Where partner abattoirs preserve tissue, transcript-level expression panels ingested alongside DNA — direct phenotype-adjacent signal for traits like marbling and fertility.
Genomic BERT / foundation-model integration
Pre-trained genomic foundation models (e.g. Nucleotide Transformer, Geneformer-class) used to augment ridge-regression DGV with non-linear sequence-context priors.

What decides what makes it onto the roadmap.

We get a lot of inbound — partner labs, breed societies, researchers, producers. Three gates determine whether an item moves from research to active build.

The biology is real.

The signal must be measurable, heritable, and economically material. No speculative traits, no marketing-led axes. If a peer-reviewed paper hasn't pinned the heritability, it stays in research.

The maths is on the file.

Every coefficient ships as source code in the open methodology. If we can't show producers how a number is derived, we don't ship the feature.

It changes a producer's decision.

The test is whether a real producer would rank a different bull, a different ram, or a different cow because of the feature. If it doesn't move the decision, it doesn't ship.

How we publish the roadmap.

This page is the canonical roadmap, refreshed quarterly. The changelog records what's actually shipped, week by week. The insights section publishes the engineering write-ups behind major roadmap items. The research page documents the underlying peer-reviewed work.

If you want to influence what gets prioritised, the most useful thing you can do is use the engine on your own operation and tell us what's missing. Producer-driven items move up the queue fastest because we share the constraint — the engine has to help us run our own herd before it ships to anyone else.

Build with us, or just watch what ships.
