More science,
less paperwork.

LabSpy was built because researchers shouldn't spend their afternoons hunting for reagents in outdated Excel files. We built the tool we knew labs actually needed.

Why we built LabSpy

The idea for LabSpy came from working closely with a small biotech lab and watching what actually happened day to day. Reagents expired unnoticed in the back of the -80°C freezer. Purchase orders were duplicated because nobody knew someone had already ordered the tips. PhD students spent twenty minutes looking for a bottle that was on Shelf 2 of Fridge A the whole time.

When we asked why they didn't use dedicated software, the answer was always the same: enterprise LIMS cost more than their reagent budgets, took months to implement, and were built for pharma companies with IT departments, not a ten-person academic group.

So we built LabSpy. Not a simplified version of enterprise software. Something designed from the ground up for how small research labs actually work: affordable, plug-and-play, and specific enough to be genuinely useful on day one.

We know what we are.
We know what we're not.

Most lab software tries to do everything and ends up doing nothing well. LabSpy is deliberately focused.

LabSpy is not
  • An enterprise LIMS (LabWare, STARLIMS, LabVantage)
  • An electronic lab notebook (Benchling, SciNote)
  • FDA 21 CFR Part 11 / GxP compliant
  • An ERP or accounting system
  • Built for pharma companies with IT departments
LabSpy is
  • Inventory management that actually shows you where things are
  • Expiry tracking before you ruin an experiment
  • A shared purchase list that stops duplicate orders
  • Equipment booking so nobody double-schedules the microscope
  • Operational in 15 minutes, no IT support needed
