10x Genomics is a life sciences tools company that sells integrated workflows for high-resolution analysis of biological samples, combining instruments, proprietary consumables, and bundled software. Its commercial portfolio centers on Single Cell and Spatial biology solutions used to study complex tissues and cellular systems in areas such as oncology, immunology, and neuroscience. The company’s model is built around an installed base of instruments (e.g., Chromium and Xenium) that drives recurring pull-through demand for single-use consumables designed to work with those platforms. It sells globally to research-focused institutions and also earns smaller streams from service contracts and licensing/royalties tied to its intellectual property.
