For Lab Teams

Your research is hard. Automation shouldn't be.

Don't worry about the robot — we'll take care of running it. You focus on your science. We'll handle the rest.

Talk to us See the Undergrad

Your scientists spend 60–80% of their time on repetitive manual work — pipetting, plate transfers, instrument loading, sample tracking. That's not what they went to graduate school for.

We get it: research is really, really complicated. The biology is complex. The protocols are specific. The stakes are high. The last thing you need is another complicated thing to manage.

So here's the deal: don't worry about the robot. We come in, we install it, we train it on your protocols, and we keep it running. You just focus on your science. If the robot needs attention, that's on us.

Onboarding

How we get you running

1

Workflow assessment

We learn your protocols, instruments, and bench layout to find the highest-value workflows to automate first.

2

Installation

The Undergrad installs on your existing bench with your existing equipment — no facility changes.

3

Protocol translation

We translate your protocols into plain-language instructions the robot runs and verifies.

4

Training & handoff

Your team learns to describe, adjust, and launch runs — no automation engineer required.

5

Ongoing support

Setup, maintenance, and updates are on us. As your protocols change, the robot adapts.

Pricing

Pay when it runs. Not for the machine.

No massive upfront cost. You pay when the robot runs experiments — so automation scales with the work it actually does for you.

Why labs choose us

Automation that fits how you work

No coding

Describe protocols in plain language. Modify them without an automation engineer.

No facility changes

Installs on your existing bench with your existing equipment.

No vendor lock-in

Works with the instruments and consumables you already use.

Pay per run

No massive upfront cost. You pay when the robot runs experiments.

We handle the robot

Setup, maintenance, updates — that's our job. You focus on the science.

Automatic records

Every step is logged for reproducibility and compliance.

Adapts over time

As your protocols change, the robot adapts — no re-engineering required.
