DNADynamo was created to offer highly functional, easy-to-use DNA cloning, analysis, sequencing, and
alignment tools—designed to meet the needs of individuals, academic labs, and startups without imposing high
costs. For over 20 years, we’ve kept our pricing straightforward and accessible, not as a reflection of reduced
value, but as part of our core mission: to support scientific work with reliable software that doesn’t require a
subscription or institutional budget
The software was developed in close collaboration with several UK molecular biology labs and their
researchers. Drawing on their hands-on experience with sub-cloning and supervising others in molecular
biology techniques, they helped shape the tool they genuinely wanted. Many of these labs—and their
offshoots—continue to use DNADynamo today, regularly suggesting and testing new features.
During the design phase, direct feedback from PhD students, post-docs, and principal investigators using the
software in real time proved invaluable. To make this process as easy as possible, we introduced built-in
feedback options: users can select ‘Suggest a Function’ to send improvement ideas directly to us, or choose the
dreaded ‘I’m Annoyed’ from the File menu to report anything frustrating. These features have been so useful
that we’ve kept them available to all users, encouraging ongoing contributions to DNADynamo’s development.
Over the past two decades, labs around the world have helped guide the software’s evolution. Collaborating
with researchers to make DNADynamo better for their specific needs remains the most rewarding part of this
work, and we’re deeply grateful for the time and insight they’ve shared.
You may occasionally hear DNADynamo referred to as DNACowboy, the project’s original development name.
Some of our longest-standing users still prefer the ‘Cowboy’ nickname—and we’re happy to honour it.
We’re committed to providing helpful, responsive support to both demo and licensed users—now and in the
future. Whether you need assistance with installation, licensing, pricing, quotes, or using DNADynamo for a
specific application, we’re happy to help. In some cases, we can even make minor (or major) modifications to
better suit your workflow.
Emails to support@bluetractorsoftware.co.uk are answered as quickly as we can. If you have questions, just

A big thank you to Jenny Southey Designs for our updated

cinnabar moth perched on a pyramid orchid, a common sight at
the Aberffraw dunes during the summer months.
