23andMe vs Ancestry

Who’s behind each, what their homepages track, what they cost and how often their policies changed, measured the same way for both. By what they offer, they’re very close.

23andMe

Saliva-based DNA testing kits that produce reports on ancestry composition, family history and traits, plus matching with genetic relatives and an optional annual premium ancestry membership.

Ancestry

Ancestry provides online access to historical records such as census, birth, marriage, death, military and immigration records, along with family tree building tools and consumer DNA testing (AncestryDNA) for tracing family history and ethnic origins.
