# Where to buy a G25 (Global25) analysis in 2026: every service compared

A Global25 analysis is arithmetic on a 25-number coordinate row: distances to reference
populations, a mixture of source populations that lands closest to your point, and a projection
onto a scatter of other samples. The arithmetic is public and free, which is why the honest
question is not "who can compute this" but "what do I get on top of the arithmetic, and can I
check it". This directory lists every service I could find that sells or offers a Global25
analysis in 2026, with the same facts for each.

I run one of them, [Ancestry Map](/g25), Ancestrify's Global25 analysis, so every competitor entry is kept to
what is readable on the competitor's own site, with "not stated on their site" where it is not.
Facts were read on each site on 2026-09-01 and may have changed since.

## What separates the services

Four things, in the order they matter.

**Whether the coordinates are official.** Official Global25 rows come only from Davidski's
independent G25 Requests portal; some services compute a derived or simulated row of their own.
Every downstream number inherits the row. [Where to buy G25 coordinates](/blog/how-to-get-global25-coordinates#where-to-buy-g25-coordinates)
covers that market on its own.

**Whether the source panels are published.** An admixture percentage means nothing without the
panel it was fitted against. A service that shows you the percentages but not the populations the
model was offered, including the ones it rejected, has shown you half a result.

**Whether anyone builds a calculator around you.** Every published calculator is a compromise
chosen to work for a whole region. A calculator built around one customer's row is a different
product, and as of the date above only one service on this list advertises it.

**The price model.** One-time reports, subscriptions, credit budgets and lifetime packs are all
represented below. None is wrong; each suits a different way of using the tools.

## Ancestrify

| Hosting | European Union, under GDPR |

A calculator built around each customer is the part of this product that does not exist elsewhere
on this list. How it is built, and why a lower fit distance is not the goal, is in the
[explainer](/blog/personalized-g25-calculator). The free half of the product, the same distance,
admixture and PCA arithmetic in the browser with no account, is at [/lab](/lab).

## What it all costs

The Global25 ecosystem has an unusual price structure: the coordinate itself costs money exactly
once, most of the tooling is genuinely free, and paid analysis sits on top as an option rather than a
gate. Because three different things get called "G25" in casual talk (the coordinates, the free
tools, the paid reports), cost questions get confused answers. Here is the whole ledger, including
what we charge and where you should not pay at all.

**The coordinate: €15, once, from one place.** Official Global25 coordinates are produced by a single
independent service, Davidski's Eurogenes G25 service via the
[G25 Requests portal](/blog/g25requests-app-explained), at **€15 per kit**, typically returned within
2 to 7 days per their posting. That fee buys the row itself: scaled and unscaled forms,
[both of which you keep](/blog/g25-scaled-vs-unscaled) and reuse in every tool forever. No testing
company issues coordinates, and no analysis site computes them,
[including us](/blog/what-are-global25-coordinates). Two cost footnotes: whole-genome inputs (VCF,
BAM, CRAM, FASTQ) carry the portal's stated conversion surcharge of roughly €30 to €50, and the free
WGSExtract workaround is in
[the coordinates guide](/blog/how-to-get-global25-coordinates#whole-genome-sequencing); and "free G25
coordinates" from converter tools are [simulated rows](/lab/g25-authenticity), which cost nothing
because they are not the product. A simulated row poisons every distance and fit computed from it,
which makes it the most expensive free thing in the hobby. If you would rather not deal with the
portal yourself, the **Coordinate Concierge** obtains the official row for you as part of an Ancestry Map
order: **+€15**, a pass-through of the provider's own per-kit fee, with your explicit consent, and the
row is yours to keep. There is no markup on it.

**The free layer: genuinely free.** Once you hold a real row, the exploration layer costs nothing and
should be used before any purchase; we say this as the people selling the next layer up. In the
browser, no account: [closest populations by distance](/lab/g25-distance) across six eras,
[nMonte-style admixture](/lab/admixture) against curated panels, [PCA views](/lab/g25-pca), a
[coordinate averager](/lab/average-g25) and the [authenticity check](/lab/g25-authenticity).
Community tools ([Vahaduo](/blog/vahaduo-g25-tutorial), [nMonte in R](/blog/nmonte-explained)) are
likewise free; the [full free toolbox is catalogued here](/blog/free-g25-tools). Also free, and one
step further than the tools: the [G25 Admix report](/blog/free-g25-admix-report), a composition per
era on a calculator our analyst builds around your official scaled row, the closest population of
every era and the closest notable match per tier. It is free once per
account, and nothing is published.

**The worked analysis: €29.99, once.** [Ancestry Map](/buy-g25-analysis), our Global25 analysis, is **€29.99
one-time**, no subscription, no credits. It buys the worked report the free tools do not attempt: all
three lenses (distances, admixture, PCA) computed across six curated eras against 1,535 populations
from 30,386 samples, every admixture panel published in full, used and unused sources both, with its
[fit distance stated](/blog/g25-fit-distance-explained), cinematic downloadable videos rendered
server-side, and the free **Notable Matches** lens ranking your row against 329 published ancient
individuals. Every report is built on [a calculator our analyst makes around your own
row](/blog/personalized-g25-calculator), approved by a person before it opens and included in the
price. Optional add-ons, all one-time:

| Add-on | Price | What it buys |
|---|---|---|
| Coordinate Concierge | +€15 | We obtain your official row from the Eurogenes service (pass-through fee) |
| Fast compute | +€10 | Skips the holding period: your report opens as soon as its calculator is approved (not offered with the Concierge) |

So the realistic totals: **€15** if you only ever want coordinates for the free tools; **€44.99** for
coordinates plus the worked analysis (29.99 + 15 concierge). Someone who already has coordinates
pays **€29.99** flat, or **€39.99** with fast compute.

**What G25 money does not buy.** No amount spent in coordinate space buys a statistical test. A G25
fit [always returns percentages and cannot reject a model](/blog/how-accurate-is-g25); the fit
distance is a gap measure, not a p-value. Claims that need formal testing are
[qpAdm's territory](/blog/qpadm-vs-global25): Ancient Ancestry, a separate product
([from €29.99](/blog/where-to-buy-qpadm-analysis#what-it-costs)) answering a different question. The
cheapest good path, in order: get the official row (€15), exhaust the [free tools](/lab) (€0), buy the
worked report when you want the curated eras, a calculator built around your row and the videos
(€29.99), and take specific claims to a [formal model](/qpadm) when they need to survive argument.

## A checklist for choosing

1. **Start from the row.** If it is not the official row, stop comparing analyses and fix that
   first.
2. **Ask to see the panel.** If the service cannot show every population the model was offered,
   the percentages cannot be judged.
3. **Decide whether you want a calculator built around you.** For a mixed or under-served
   background it is the difference between a regional compromise and a fit that explains your
   row.
4. **Match the price model to your habits.** Weekly experiments suit free tools or a
   subscription; one answer done properly suits a one-time report.
5. **Remember what no analysis can say.** A coordinate distance is a statement about position in
   a reference space, never about who your ancestors were. A service that tells you otherwise is
   selling a story.
