Verily makes Workbench generally available on AWS

Verily Health has announced that Verily Workbench is now generally available for organizations running on Amazon Web Services (AWS). The company shared the update at the 2026 AWS Life Sciences Symposium, positioning Workbench as a trusted research environment (TRE) for biomedical data analysis and AI and machine learning development.

According to the companies, the offering is designed to let teams co-analyze data in place while working within a governed research setup intended to support healthcare compliance requirements. Verily describes Workbench as an enterprise-grade environment aimed at integrating with existing data and security processes.

Security, governance and third-party validations

Verily says Workbench and the related component Verily Pre are built around strict isolation and consistent governance. The company points to SOC 2 Type 2 attestation and ISO/IEC 27001 certification by accredited third-party auditors, alongside AWS assurances.

Scaling analytics and AWS-native workflows

On the workflow side, Verily highlights biomedical processing powered by AWS HealthOmics for defining and running multi-stage jobs across data modalities. The platform is also positioned for enterprise integration, including secure access to proprietary datasets.

No cloud cost markup

Verily says customers can run Workbench using their existing AWS accounts, so negotiated AWS rates and spending commitments apply to storage and compute charges incurred through the platform.

NVIDIA AI stack support

Workbench includes native integration of NVIDIA tools, including NeMo, Parabricks and CUDA-X Data Science. Verily also references access to recent GPU generations, including NVIDIA Blackwell and NVIDIA Hopper, to accelerate model training and genomic analysis.

Multi-cloud consistency and a free standard tier

Verily states that core Workbench capabilities are consistent across AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), aiming to support interoperability and collaboration across environments. In addition, researchers can register for a free standard-tier account to access Workbench and Verily’s Exchange solution, which is intended to provide access to data sources from Verily and data partners.

Use in large-scale studies

Verily says Workbench is used by life sciences, health system, payer and government customers. The company also notes it provides the TRE platform for large multimodal studies, including the NIH All of Us Research Program, which Verily says supports more than 20,000 researchers worldwide.
