Alphabet has been working for about two years to technologically decouple its life sciences business Verily to enable a sale or spin-off. The decoupling effort focuses on separating Verily’s systems and infrastructure from Alphabet’s broader technology stack to make the business operationally and technologically independent. The timeline spans roughly two years of work to ensure Verily can operate autonomously from core Alphabet services. Details about the decoupling surfaced during legal proceedings in a Department of Justice antitrust case alleging illegal monopolization in advertising technology. The separation positions Verily for strategic options including sale, spin-off, or other divestiture forms.
