Upload your raw genotype file and see how your trait-linked variants compare against reference populations worldwide. Covers pigmentation, hair texture, facial morphology, and more.
⚠️
Not a measure of total ancestry
Your genotypes at a curated set of phenotype-associated SNPs
(pigmentation, eye shape, nose shape, hair texture, etc.) are compared against real individuals in the
1000 Genomes + HGDP reference panels. This is not genome-wide autosomal data.
Because only trait-linked positions are used, results can differ substantially from your actual ethnic or geographic ancestry.
For full ancestry estimation use a genome-wide service.
How it works
Upload raw data from 23andMe, AncestryDNA, LivingDNA, or FTDNA (txt/csv, .gz or .zip).
The tool extracts your genotype calls at a curated set of phenotype-linked SNPs (pigmentation, hair texture, facial morphology, etc.),
then compares your allele frequencies at each position against those measured in real individuals from the
1000 Genomes + HGDP reference panels, spanning populations worldwide.
A mixture model then finds the combination of reference populations whose allele frequencies best match your data. The percentages in the results show how much each reference population contributed to that fit. Populations whose variants look most like yours will score highest.

Reference populations
The following 1000 Genomes + HGDP populations are used as references, grouped into broad geographic clusters.
