The operating system for research labs

Your whole lab,
finally in one place.

Inventory, protocols, samples, tasks, scheduling, and team chat — working together. Finish a protocol and your inventory updates itself. It's everything a chat app was never built to do.

No sign-up needed to explore the demo

The lab runs on scattered chaos

Most labs juggle a dozen disconnected tools. Things fall through the cracks — and it's always the busy people who pay for it.

A reagent runs out mid-experiment
Nobody noticed the stock was low because it lived in someone’s head, not a system.
Protocols live in twelve places
A Google Doc here, a printout there, three slightly different versions — and no record of who ran what.
The new student asks the same question
Where’s the sample? What’s the protocol? Who has access? Tribal knowledge doesn’t scale.
The PI is the bottleneck
Everything routes through one inbox. Information moves at the speed of one very busy person.
The part no chat app can do

Complete a protocol. Watch the lab update itself.

When a lab member logs a completed protocol run, LabOps Lite automatically does the busywork nobody remembers to do:

Deducts reagents
The exact amounts used come straight out of your inventory counts.
Assigns cleanup
Equipment cleanup chores get created and assigned automatically.
Logs the run
Date, who ran it, and notes are saved to the protocol’s history.
Updates the calendar
The run appears on the shared lab calendar for everyone to see.

How it works

From sign-up to inviting your whole team — here is exactly how it works.

01
Create your account
Sign up with your email in under a minute. Creating an account is free.
02
The PI creates the lab
As the principal investigator, name your lab and set it up. It is ready to activate.
03
Activate the subscription
Pay the $100/month lab subscription to unlock every module. One flat price, unlimited members.
04
Get your access code
You return to your lab dashboard, where your unique access code appears — ready to copy and share.
05
Invite your whole team
Send the access code to your lab. Everyone signs up with their own account and joins instantly — no extra cost per person.

Ten modules. One workspace.

Everything a lab needs, designed to work together.

Dashboard
The moment you log in, see exactly what needs attention: low-stock alerts, open tasks, recent protocol runs, and the week ahead — no digging through tabs.
Inventory
Track every reagent, consumable, and instrument with quantities, locations, and expiry dates. Automatic low-stock and expiring-soon flags mean you’re never blindsided mid-experiment.
Protocols
Document methods as versioned, step-by-step instructions with linked reagents. Every run is logged with who, when, and what was used — so your work stays reproducible and auditable.
Tasks
Assign lab work with owners, due dates, priorities, and recurring chores. Switch between a clean list and a drag-friendly kanban board so nothing slips through the cracks.
Samples
A complete record for every sample — type, source, collection date, storage location, and notes — with a full chain of custody tracing it from collection to archive.
Calendar
A shared lab schedule the whole team can see and edit. Protocol runs and task deadlines land on it automatically, so everyone stays aligned without anyone chasing updates.
Team
See every member and their role, and invite your whole lab with a single access code. Each person gets their own login — access is shared, never funneled through one inbox.
Messages
Real-time chat with channels for the whole lab and direct messages for one-on-one or small groups. Lab conversation lives in one place instead of scattered across email threads.
Notes
Keep private notes just for you and shared notes for the whole lab. Searchable and organized, so protocols-in-progress and lab knowledge are always exactly where you left them.
AI Assistant
Ask questions in plain English — “what’s running low?” or “who can run the PCR protocol?” — and get answers pulled straight from your lab’s real, live data.

What changes when your lab runs on LabOps

The everyday friction, replaced.

Without a system
×Reagents run out mid-experiment with no warning
×Protocols scattered across docs, printouts, and memory
×The PI is a bottleneck for every status update
×New members spend weeks asking where things are
×No record of who ran what, or what got used
With LabOps Lite
✓Low-stock and expiration alerts before you run out
✓Every protocol versioned, with full run history
✓Anyone can act — data is shared, not funneled
✓Everything lives in one place new members can browse
✓Completing a run logs it and updates inventory automatically

Built to kill the bottlenecks

Every lab loses time the same way: information scattered across spreadsheets, group chats, and people’s memories. LabOps Lite replaces that with one shared system. When a grad student logs a protocol run, the reagents come straight out of inventory, cleanup chores get assigned, and the run lands on the calendar — no one has to remember to update three places. The PI sees the whole lab at a glance instead of chasing status updates. New members stop asking where things are because everything lives in one place. And because data is shared at the lab level rather than funneled through one person, the lab never stalls waiting on a single inbox. Less administrative friction, fewer dropped balls, and hours back every week for the work that actually matters.

Simple, flat pricing
$100 / month
per lab
✓Unlimited lab members
✓All ten modules included
