Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Description of the Business	1. Organization and Description of the Business Description of the Business Tenaya Therapeutics, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in August 2016 and is headquartered in South San Francisco, California. The Company is a preclinical stage biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing and delivering curative therapies that address the underlying drivers of heart disease. The Company is advancing product candidates from three distinct but interrelated product platforms: gene therapy, cellular regeneration and precision medicine. Reverse Stock Split In July 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved an amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse split of shares of the Company’s common stock, redeemable convertible preferred stock, and authorized shares on a 1-for-6 basis (the Reverse Stock Split) effective on July 23, 2021. The par value of the common stock and preferred stock was not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. All share data, per share data and related information for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split. Initial Public Offering On August 3, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering (IPO), at which time the Company issued an aggregate of 13,800,000 shares of its common stock (inclusive of 1,800,000 shares pursuant to the underwriters’ overallotment option) at a price of $15.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $188.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $14.5 million and other offering expenses of $3.7 million. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, all of the Company’s outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 26,102,278 shares of common stock. The condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2021, including share and per share amounts, do not give effect to the IPO and the conversion of the convertible preferred stock into common stock, as the IPO and such conversion were completed subsequent to June 30, 2021 (see Note 12). Liquidity The Company has incurred net losses since inception and expects such losses to continue in the future as it conducts research and development activities. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $111.1 million. The Company incurred a net loss of $28.3 million and $17.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The Company had $111.9 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021. Management recognizes the need to raise capital to fully implement its business plan. The Company may seek to raise capital through equity financings, debt financings, license agreements, collaborative agreements or other sources of financing. Management believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021, together with the net proceeds received from its IPO (see Note 12), are sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for at least the next twelve months following the date these condensed financial statements are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and follow the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP can be condensed or omitted. The interim condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, and the interim condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss, convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The condensed results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future annual or interim period. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the prospectus dated July 29 , 20 2 1 , that forms a part of the Company's Registration Statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-2 5 7820 and 333-2 58285 ), as filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended . Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed financial statements include, but are not limited to, the fair value of common stock, the valuation of equity-based awards, the useful lives of property and equipment, the fair value of the convertible preferred stock tranche liability, accrued expenses related to research and development activities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds that are stated at fair value. Leases The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 842, Leases Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date of the lease. ROU assets also include any initial direct costs incurred and any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, less any lease incentive received. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease in determining the present value of lease payments and, if that rate is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the date of lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate reflects the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s non-lease components are primarily related to property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, which vary based on future outcomes, and are recognized as rent expense when incurred. Deferred Offering Costs Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting, audit and filing fees relating to the Company’s initial public offering, are capitalized. Deferred offering costs will be offset against offering proceeds from the completion of the offering. As of June 30, 2021, $2.5 million of deferred offering costs were capitalized, which are included in other non-current assets in the accompanying condensed balance sheet. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not incur any deferred offering costs. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. As the Company is in a loss position for the periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share, since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive. Shares related to early exercised stock options and restricted stock that are subject to repurchase are excluded from the basic and diluted net loss per share calculation until the Company’s repurchase right lapses. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective transition method and elected the practical expedients to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, carry forward its historical lease classification and not reassess initial direct costs for existing leases. Leases Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt— Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (ASU 2020-06), which is intended to simplify the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. This standard removes the existing guidance in ASC 470-20 that requires companies to account for cash conversion features and beneficial conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. As an emerging growth company, ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2024. The Company currently does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements	3. Fair Value Measurements Financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis. The following tables summarize the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy: June 30, 2021 Valuation Hierarchy Amortized Cost Unrealized Gain Unrealized Loss Fair Value (In thousands) Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds Level 1 $ 110,872 $ — $ — $ 110,872 Total financial assets $ 110,872 $ — $ — $ 110,872 December 31, 2020 Valuation Hierarchy Amortized Cost Unrealized Gain Unrealized Loss Fair Value (In thousands) Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds Level 1 $ 127,535 $ — $ — $ 127,535 Total financial assets $ 127,535 $ — $ — $ 127,535 Money market funds are classified as Level 1 because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. There were no unrealized losses as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Convertible Preferred Stock Tranche Liability The Company’s convertible preferred stock tranche liability (see Note 7) was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. Fair value was calculated using an option pricing model that required significant unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity. The convertible preferred stock tranche liability is considered a non-contingent forward and the standard forward pricing model was used with the following key assumptions: (a) calculation of an expected term and (b) a risk-free interest rate The following table summarizes the significant unobservable assumptions used to value the convertible preferred stock tranche liability as of June 30, 2020: June 30, 2020 Term to valuation date (in years) 0.17 Discount rate 5.0% The following table summarizes the changes in the estimated fair value of the Company’s convertible preferred stock tranche liability measured on a recurring basis using significant Level 3 inputs: Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 (In thousands) Beginning balance $ 786 Partial settlement upon second closing of Series B convertible preferred stock (27 ) Change in fair value upon remeasurement 76 Ending balance $ 835

Convertible Preferred Stock Prior to the Company’s IPO (see Note 12), convertible preferred stock as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consists of the following: June 30, 2021 Shares Authorized Shares Issued and Outstanding Net Carrying Value Liquidation Preference (In thousands, except share data) Convertible Preferred Stock Series A 8,316,666 8,316,662 $ 43,393 $ 49,900 Series B 9,259,254 9,259,245 91,644 92,000 Series C 8,526,381 8,526,371 105,698 106,000 Total 26,102,301 26,102,278 $ 240,735 $ 247,900 December 31, 2020 Shares Authorized Shares Issued and Outstanding Net Carrying Value Liquidation Preference (In thousands, except share data) Convertible Preferred Stock Series A 8,316,666 8,316,662 $ 43,393 $ 49,900 Series B 9,259,254 9,259,245 91,644 92,000 Series C 8,526,381 6,917,621 85,717 86,000 Total 26,102,301 24,493,528 $ 220,754 $ 227,900 The Company classifies its convertible preferred stock outside of total stockholders’ deficit because, in the event of certain change of control events that are not solely within the control of the Company (including liquidation, sale or transfer of the Company), the shares would become redeemable at the option of the holders. As a result, the Company has classified its convertible preferred stock as mezzanine equity on the balance sheets as the preferred stock is contingently redeemable. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Financing In August 2019, the Company entered into a Series B preferred stock purchase agreement (Series B SPA) for the issuance of up to 9,259,254 shares of the Company’s Series B convertible preferred stock at a purchase price of $9.936 per share in multiple closings. The Company completed the initial closing in August 2019, whereby 3,086,415 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock were issued for gross proceeds of $30.7 million. Pursuant to the Series B SPA, the Company was permitted to sell additional shares in subsequent closings contingent upon the approval of the Company’s board of directors. On issuance, the Company determined that its obligation to issue additional shares of Series B convertible preferred stock in future closings was a freestanding instrument that should be classified as a liability on the Company’s balance sheets. The freestanding financial instrument, or convertible preferred stock tranche liability, was recorded at fair value on issuance of $0.8 million with the remaining proceeds being allocated to the Series B convertible preferred stock. Any changes in fair value of the convertible preferred stock tranche liability in subsequent reporting periods are recognized as a component of other income (expense), net in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss (see Note 3). In March 2020, the Company completed its second closing of Series B convertible preferred stock financing and issued 3,086,415 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock at the fixed purchase price of $9.936 per share for gross proceeds of $30.7 million, thereby settling a portion of the convertible preferred stock tranche liability. Immediately prior to the second closing, the Company measured the convertible preferred stock tranche liability to its then fair value. Upon the closing of the second tranche, the convertible preferred stock tranche liability was partially settled and the related balance of the liability of $27,000 was reclassified to Series B convertible preferred stock. In August 2020, the Company completed its third closing of Series B convertible preferred stock financing and issued 3,086,415 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock at the purchase price of $9.936 per share for gross proceeds of $30.7 million, thereby settling the remainder of the convertible preferred stock tranche liability. Immediately prior to the third closing, the Company measured the convertible preferred stock tranche liability to its then fair value. Upon the closing of the third tranche, the remaining convertible preferred stock tranche liability was settled and the balance of the liability of $0.7 million was reclassified to Series B convertible preferred stock. Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Financing In December 2020, the Company entered into a Series C preferred stock purchase agreement (Series C SPA) for the issuance of up to 8,526,381 shares of the Company’s Series C convertible preferred stock at a purchase price of $12.432 per share in two closings. The Company completed the initial closing in December 2020, whereby 6,917,621 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock were issued for gross proceeds of $86.0 million. In January 2021, the Company sold an additional 1,608,750 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock at a purchase price of $12.432 per share for gross proceeds of $20.0 million.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and follow the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP can be condensed or omitted. The interim condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, and the interim condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss, convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The condensed results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future annual or interim period. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the prospectus dated July 29 , 20 2 1 , that forms a part of the Company's Registration Statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-2 5 7820 and 333-2 58285 ), as filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended .
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed financial statements include, but are not limited to, the fair value of common stock, the valuation of equity-based awards, the useful lives of property and equipment, the fair value of the convertible preferred stock tranche liability, accrued expenses related to research and development activities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds that are stated at fair value.
Leases	Leases The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 842, Leases Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date of the lease. ROU assets also include any initial direct costs incurred and any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, less any lease incentive received. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease in determining the present value of lease payments and, if that rate is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the date of lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate reflects the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s non-lease components are primarily related to property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, which vary based on future outcomes, and are recognized as rent expense when incurred.
Deferred Offering Costs	Deferred Offering Costs Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting, audit and filing fees relating to the Company’s initial public offering, are capitalized. Deferred offering costs will be offset against offering proceeds from the completion of the offering. As of June 30, 2021, $2.5 million of deferred offering costs were capitalized, which are included in other non-current assets in the accompanying condensed balance sheet. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not incur any deferred offering costs.
Net Loss Per Share	Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. As the Company is in a loss position for the periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share, since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive. Shares related to early exercised stock options and restricted stock that are subject to repurchase are excluded from the basic and diluted net loss per share calculation until the Company’s repurchase right lapses.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective transition method and elected the practical expedients to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, carry forward its historical lease classification and not reassess initial direct costs for existing leases. Leases Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt— Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (ASU 2020-06), which is intended to simplify the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. This standard removes the existing guidance in ASC 470-20 that requires companies to account for cash conversion features and beneficial conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. As an emerging growth company, ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2024. The Company currently does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its financial statements.
