Read the full description

What You Inherit infers latent genotypes and genetic-disease risk from a pedigree — no genetic test required. Enter a family tree plus whatever clinical detail exists, and get exact Bayesian posteriors over which disease is segregating, each relative's carrier probability and lifetime risk, and the variant they likely carry.

Could you build this?

No Producing clinically meaningful genetic risk estimates requires validated penetrance and population data, genetic-counseling domain expertise, and likely regulatory review. Vibe coding cannot supply those, even though the Bayesian pedigree math is implementable.

What it would actually take: The core is Bayesian pedigree inference over Mendelian segregation models, similar to Elston-Stewart or peeling algorithms, implemented in a numerical language with a pedigree-drawing UI. A trustworthy version needs curated disease-gene penetrance and allele frequency databases, validation against known pedigrees, and input from clinical geneticists. Regulatory and liability considerations for health-risk outputs add further barriers.
