About Catalog Technologies
Catalog Technologies, based in Boston, developed DNA data storage and computing, which encodes digital files into synthetic DNA instead of magnetic or flash media. DNA can hold data very densely and keep it for long periods without power, but writing and reading it is slow compared with conventional storage. In March 2026 the French startup Biomemory bought key Catalog assets, including patents, and set up production and research in Boston alongside its Paris operations. Biomemory says its patent portfolio now exceeds 90 patents. The Catalog name should be treated as a legacy entry.
Catalog Technologies was founded in 2016 and is based in Boston, MA, United States. It is listed under DNA & Bio Computing.

What Catalog Technologies works on
DNA & Bio Computing
Biocomputing uses biological material to store or process information. It has two main branches. DNA data storage encodes digital files in the four bases of DNA (A, C, G and T). Biological computing uses living cells or neurons grown in the lab as the computing element.
