Everything a lab needs, working together.

Thirteen modules in one workspace — connected so that finishing a protocol updates your inventory, calendar, and team automatically.

The feature that sets LabOps apart

Finish a protocol. Your inventory updates itself.

No chat app or spreadsheet can do this. The moment someone logs a completed protocol run, LabOps Lite does the busywork nobody remembers — starting with the one that causes the most pain:

🧪
Reagents deduct themselves from inventory
The exact amounts a protocol uses are subtracted from your counts automatically — no manual tallying, no “who used the last of it?”, no discovering you’re out halfway through an experiment. Your inventory is always the real number.
🧾 Exactly what was used is recorded
Every reagent and amount the run consumed is snapshotted onto its record — reproducible down to the last microliter.
📝 The run is logged
Date, who ran it, and notes are saved to the protocol’s history — reproducible and auditable.
📅 The calendar updates
The run lands on the shared lab calendar for everyone to see.
🔔 Low stock is flagged
If a run drops a reagent below its threshold, an alert fires before you run out.
👥 The team stays in sync
Everyone sees the same inventory, history, and schedule update in real time.

One action → five things updated. Nobody had to remember.

What that looks like in the app

You link a protocol’s reagents once, when you write it. From then on, logging a run subtracts the exact amounts from stock — and flags anything that just dropped too low.

Thirteen modules. One workspace.

Everything a lab needs, designed to work together.

📊 Dashboard
See exactly what needs attention: low-stock alerts, open tasks, recent protocol runs, and the week ahead.
🧪 Inventory
Track every reagent, consumable, and instrument with quantities, locations, vendor and catalog numbers, and per-item reorder points — with automatic low-stock and expiring-soon flags.
🛒 Orders
Request reagents and supplies, route them through approve → order → received, and track spend by grant. Received items flow straight into inventory.
📋 Protocols
Document methods as versioned, step-by-step instructions with linked reagents. Every run is logged with who, when, and what was used.
⚗️ Experiments
A dated lab-notebook entry for every experiment — link the protocol and samples, write it up with rich text, attach your data files, and finalize when it’s done.
📁 Projects
Nest projects up to five levels deep — a client programme, its phases, the work inside them. Each carries a timeline, status, custom parameters, and the tasks, samples, experiments, and orders filed against it.
🧫 Samples
A complete record for every sample — storage location, freeze/thaw tracking, aliquot lineage, file attachments, and a full chain of custody. Print QR labels for a whole box at once, then scan one with your phone to check a sample in or out at the bench.
🔬 Equipment
Book shared instruments — the confocal, the −80, the PCR machine — with live scheduling and overlap warnings so nobody double-books.
📅 Calendar
A shared lab schedule the whole team can see and edit. Protocol runs and task deadlines land on it automatically.
👥 Team
See every member and their role, and invite your whole lab with a single access code. Each person gets their own login.
💬 Messages
Real-time chat with channels for the whole lab and direct messages for one-on-one or small groups.
📝 Notes
Private notes just for you and shared notes for the whole lab — with rich-text formatting and file attachments, searchable and always where you left them.
🕓 Activity
An immutable, timestamped record of everything that happens across the lab — protocol runs, sample moves, orders received. The audit trail and chain of custody that regulated work needs.

Sample tracking with real depth.

Not just a list of tubes. Every sample carries a complete, auditable life story — where it lives, how many times it’s been thawed, what it was split from, and everywhere it’s been.

❄️ Freeze / thaw tracking
Check a sample out and back in, and its freeze/thaw count ticks up on its own. Know at a glance which aliquots have been cycled too many times to trust.
🌿 Aliquot lineage
Split a sample and every child links back to its parent. The full derivation tree is one click away — no more guessing where a tube came from.
🗄️ Freezer & box mapping
Give every sample a real freezer, box, and grid position. The visual cryobox map shows exactly what’s where — and what space is left.
🏷️ QR labels & bench scanning
Every sample prints a QR label. Scan it with your phone at the bench to jump straight to that sample and check it in or out — no typing, no separate label software.
At the bench

Scan a label. Check it in or out.

Every sample prints a QR label. Point your phone’s camera at it — no app to install — and you land straight on that sample, with big buttons to check it out or back in. Each check-in logs a freeze/thaw automatically.

Know before you run out

See what you’re burning through.

Because every protocol run records exactly what it used, LabOps Lite turns that history into a burn rate for each reagent — over the last 5 days, week, month, or year — and tells you which ones will run out first.

Built to be trusted.

The safeguards a lab’s data deserves — quietly handled.

🔒 Isolated per lab
Every lab’s data is private and walled off at the database level. Members only ever see their own lab — never anyone else’s.
🧾 A complete audit trail
Every action is recorded with who did it and when, in a permanent history you can always review. Reproducibility and accountability, built in.
🔑 Individual, secure accounts
Everyone signs in with their own account — no shared passwords, no anonymous edits. You always know exactly who did what.
📤 Your data stays yours
Export your inventory, samples, protocols, and tasks to CSV whenever you want. Your lab’s data is always portable — no lock-in.

See it running on your own lab.
