With the growing number of genomes becoming available, a software environment is needed to produce accurate and consistent annotations.

The SEED is that environment. We provide a public SEED-Viewer that allows read-only access to the latest data and annotations. For users interested in editing and learning how to use the system, we also provide a Trial-SEED.

As described in our [[Annotating_1000_Genomes|manifesto] the annotation is not performed on a gene by gene basis per genome, but rather by subsystem by an expert curator across many genomes at a time.
