KoriBlast is not a basic web interface to Blast. It should be viewed more than a fully graphical and interactive sequence databanks search platform that uses Blast as its search engine. In addition, the software is capable of automatically fecthing known sequence data from remote databanks, adding valuable information to basic search reports. Here are some advantages of KoriBlast over web-based systems:

1. you can access online and local resources (search systems and databanks) instantly.

2. you can schedule multiple search jobs quickly. Whatever the number of sequences you have to analyse, whatever the Blast search systems used, all searches will be conducted automatically by KoriBlast.

 3. you can design search strategies. Not only KoriBlast is capable of doing sequence databank searches, it is also capable of fetching sequences data. Combined together, you can prepare data filters to retain only relevant information.

4. you can analyse Blast results using a dynamic graphical interface providing you with several complementary reports.

5. you can keep a general history of your work, without time limit. As a consequence of this valuable feature, you can re-schedule search strategies over time within a single mouse click and you can compare search results over time to discover new information.

6. you can work with your personal sequence databanks, and local copies of public ones as well.

7. you can export data in various formats (pictures, data tables, etc.) out of KoriBlast
