uBiome was a biotechnology company that developed technology to sequence and analyze the human microbiome using proprietary machine-learning algorithms. The company offered consumer testing kits and clinical diagnostics (SmartGut, SmartJane) reimbursed by health insurance. uBiome collapsed in 2019 after an FBI raid over healthcare fraud, with its co-founders later indicted for defrauding investors and insurers.
