Our technology

Vitract is revolutionizing gut health analysis with cutting-edge genomic sequencing technology, delivering the most precise insights into the microbiome. By leveraging next-generation sequencing (NGS) and advanced bioinformatics, we decode the complexities of gut bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms with unmatched accuracy. Our state-of-the-art approach ensures deeper, more actionable insights for practitioners and individuals looking to optimize their gut health. With Vitract, you get the gold standard in microbiome testing—because precision matters.

There are many different lab techniques that can be used once a stool sample arrives at the lab. Some of these methods include culturing, qPCR, Next Generation Sequencing and Metabolomics. Traditional lab testing is built on qPCR, but the next generation of microbiome companies are being built on genomic sequencing.

Because Vitract’s DeepGut is built on shotgun metagenomics, it is able to provide strain-level resolution

Why does strain level resolution matter
Streamline Magnifying Glass
Not all bacteria are the sameTwo bacteria with the same name can act completely differently; one might be great for your gut, while another could cause issues.
Streamline Stethoscope
More precise treatmentsKnowing the exact strain helps pick the right probiotics, diet, or supplements for better results.
Streamline Bug: Antivirus Debugging
Spots antibiotic resistanceSome strains can resist antibiotics, which is key for choosing the right medical treatment.
Streamline  Bacteria: Virus Cells Biology
Shows what bacteria actually doDifferent strains can have unique jobs, like producing important nutrients or impacting digestion.
Streamline User Profile Focus
Truly personalized gut healthInstead of generic advice, strain-level testing tailors recommendations to your unique microbiome.
Streamline Tablet Capsule
How you react to medications Your gut bacteria influence how you break down and absorb medications, including antibiotics and even treatments like immunotherapy.

Our GutScan and DeepGut kits deliver real and actionable microbiome reports

At Vitract, we know that true health transformation comes from clear guidance and measurable progress. But we also know that transparency is critical. That’s why we use the best in class science and we show you exactly why you should follow the recommendations on your test results by linking you directly to the evidence.

Compositional and functional data

A huge drawback of legacy lab gut microbiome testing today is that they cherry pick biomarker panels and offer insight into whether those preselected pathogens were picked up or not.

Without compositional and functional data, it becomes nearly impossible to access what could be driving gut dysbiosis. With compositional and functional data, practitioners can glean a sense of how microbes may be interacting with each other and track any changes of the makeup of the gut landscape before new symptoms can arise.

Our AI driven personalized gut modifier recommendations

AI is revolutionizing microbiome analysis, offering faster and more detailed insights than ever before. But when it comes to clinical applications, AI alone isn’t enough—it requires rigorous scientific oversight to ensure accuracy, reliability, and real-world impact.

At Vitract, our PhD-led team of microbiome experts meticulously validates AI-driven findings, combining cutting-edge technology with deep scientific expertise. While others rely solely on algorithms, we ensure that every result meets the highest clinical standards, making our microbiome insights not just advanced, but truly actionable.

Unbeatable price

Advancements in microbiome science and AI alone are not enough. Companies must do their part to lower the cost of microbiome testing to increase access to life changing tools like gut health tests.

This is why at Vitract, one of our core values is accessibility. We offer prices that are unheard of because we believe that microbiome magic truly happens when practitioners can test and retest all of their clients. When protocols and interventions can truly be measured and tweaked. Want to learn more about practitioner pricing at Vitract?
