Phylogenetic studies now routinely require manipulating and summarizing thousands of data files. For most of these tasks, currently available software requires considerable computing resources and substantial knowledge of command-line applications. We develop ultrafast and memory-efficient software that performs over a dozen common phylogenomic manipulations and calculates statistics summarizing essential data features. Our software is available as standalone command-line (CLI) and graphical user interface (GUI) applications, and as a programming language library for Rust, R, and Python, with possible support of other languages. The CLI and library versions, SEGUL, run native on Windows, Linux, and macOS, including Apple ARM Macs. The GUI version extends support to include mobile iOS and Android operating systems. SEGUL offer fast execution times and low memory footprints regardless of dataset size and platform choice. The inclusion of a GUI minimizes bioinformatics barriers to phylogenomics while SEGUL’s efficiency reduces economic barriers by enabling analysis on inexpensive hardware. Our support for mobile operating systems further enables teaching phylogenomics where access to computing power is limited.
