Scarf Open source

A memory-efficient Python library for large-scale single-cell analysis, built on sparse data structures that keep matrices out of RAM. Scarf underpins ScarfWeb clustering, embedding, and downstream assays.

CyteType Open access

An evidence-based cell type annotation workflow that maps clusters to ontology terms, surfaces marker-level support, and returns reviewable report modules for biology teams.

CyteOnto Open source

A utility for automated semantic comparison of cell type annotations against the Cell Ontology, helping quantify agreement and resolve label mismatches across datasets.
