Sapio Sciences
The North American headquarters is 400 East Pratt Street, Suite 800, Baltimore, Maryland.
What it is
Sapio Sciences combines a laboratory information management system (LIMS), electronic lab notebook (ELN), and Scientific Data Cloud in a research lab platform. It is designed for laboratories of all sizes working across areas such as PCR, genomics, proteomics, protein engineering, medicinal chemistry, and sequencing. No-code workflow builders let teams configure, link, automate, and track processes across instruments. Sapio Elain is a prompt-based assistant for searching, planning and designing experiments, building and executing them, analyzing data, and optimizing workflows. The platform can bring in instrument data without code and includes charting, visualization, and science-aware search. Its research LIMS, ELN, and Scientific Data Cloud are cloud-based and require a modern web browser; Sapio LIMS also offers cloud or on-premise deployment. Instrument connections can use a Rules Engine, File Bridge, or RESTful API. Scientific Data Cloud supports more than 200 instruments through file sweep, with an API for additional instruments. Sapio lists SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 credentials and says its LIMS is ready for GLP, GCP, and GMP compliance. Academic Bronze is free for users with an academic institution email; non-academic users must request more details.
