Pretty much everyone has a smartphone these days and the technology underpinning them is very sophisticated, but the end user in most cases does not need to know how that all works – it just works. PurifAI is about putting cutting-edge testing power directly into the hands of users, wherever they are and whatever their DNA question may be."

Our support for their business means that they can do more to enable their customers to help car owners with repair, maintenance and service requirements."
