Will this tell me if I'll get cancer or Alzheimer's?
No. Spoke does not predict whether you will get cancer, Alzheimer's, or any other condition. Sensitive areas such as cancer context, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and psychiatric traits are opt-in only. If you choose to include them, they are handled as limited, non-diagnostic context: clearly labelled, separated from everyday actions, and never framed as a standalone fear-led module.
What raw DNA files do you accept?
23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, Living DNA, and other raw DNA files we can validate during the fit check. We're adding Nebula and Dante Whole-Genome support in Q3 2026. If you've lost your file, use the raw DNA download guide to find the official steps for your provider.
What if I have not taken a DNA test yet?
Choose a consumer DNA provider that lets you download your raw data after results are ready. We have tested several supported providers and confirmed highly comparable Spoke report outputs after our format, coverage, and quality checks. Provider marker coverage still varies, so the free fit check comes first.
How long does a report take?
Your Genome Action Plan is usually ready within 4 business days. We check the uploaded DNA file, run trait-specific genome analyses, prioritize the most useful findings, prepare your practical next steps, and review the report before delivery. If a file needs review by our team, we will tell you before taking payment or before analysis continues.
Can I share my report with my doctor?
Yes, if that is useful for you. The main report is written for you first: clear priorities, evidence labels, and practical next steps you can act on or track. When a finding is worth discussing, we include a concise clinical summary you can print, save, or attach to your patient portal.
What happens to my DNA file after the report?
Stored encrypted, used only to generate your report and any updates you request, never sold, never shared with insurers. One click in the portal deletes everything — file, derived data, and report. Receipts of deletion are emailed to you.
Is this a diagnosis?
No. Spoke reports are educational, designed to inform discussion with your doctor. Any clinical decision — medication, screening, surgery — requires confirmation through measured tests and a qualified healthcare professional. We say so on every page.
