Simple Test,
Valuable Insight

Driven by curiosity and built on purpose, our team of researchers and equine experts are providing actionable insights to owners and riders about their horse’s gut microbiome

The AEI research-based microbiome test is changing the way we think about the impact of the gut microbiome on equine health and performance


What is an AEI Microbiome Subscription?

The AEI Microbiome Subscription is a quarterly biome test that provides you actionable, research-based reports tailored to your animal.

We provide a hands-on testing approach with two key touchpoints in our testing process: An equine onboarding with a dedicated account manager and a report consultation with a PhD from our research team to review your results.

With your quarterly subscription, we develop a microbiome profile of your horse to track measurable improvements.

  • Our testing is subscription based to develop a profile for your animal with measurable improvement over time. Every 3 months we’ll send you a test kit with a return shipping label.

    Our goal is to reduce this testing to once per year as part of an annual checkup.

    Cancel your subscription at any time, no strings attached. If you would like to try one test simply order a subscription and cancel the following day.

  • We schedule a 30 minute equine onboarding with you as well as anyone else you’d like included: veterinarians, trainers, riders, etc. This can be done by phone or Google Meet depending on your preference.

    We’ll build the profile of your animal as well as document any concerns or symptoms that you would like our science team to review.

  • The latest benchmark standard fecal testing kit will be sent to you with custom directions. Follow the simple collection process and return the kit to AEI with your prepaid shipping label.

  • Our team of doctorate microbiologists and geneticists will review your intake notes before processing your samples.

    Using the latest testing techniques and equipment, we’ll sequence your horse’s biome and highlighting any pertinent data related to your intake form.

  • Our doctorate research team will review your intake notes and goals and customize your report to highlight areas of interest related to your specific concerns.

    Our technology allows us to access hundreds of thousands of data points across thousands of scientific equine studies to highlight meaningful opportunities tailored to your animal.

    3 Reports are provided:
    Actionable Summary (2 Pages)
    Microbiome Report with Data and Reference Material (10-20 Pages)
    Full Biome Strain Profile (90+ Pages)

  • A 30-minute consultation to review your AEI Microbiome Report with one of our PhD researchers and your account manager.

    We’ll walk you through the specific results and action items in your report. Our research team will also highlight any areas of interest related to your specific intake consultation concerns.
