BIOS coordinates specialized subagents for literature search and data analysis, planning and executing multi-step research workflows while you steer. BIOS&#x27;s analysis capabilities rank #1 on BixBench, a challenging bioinformatics benchmark. BixBench tests real-world analytical scenarios spanning genomics, transcriptomics, differential expression, and more—tasks that require executing complete analysis workflows, not just answering from memory. BIOS is powered by Deep Research, an iterative workflow that completes research cycles in minutes…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2601.12542/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
