Why Traditional R&D Needs Transformation

Experiments are slow and resource-intensive due to manual, trial-and-error processes.
Bottlenecked by data analysis and experiment planning, teams rely on historical bias instead of unbiased AI-driven exploration – missing optimal conditions and slowing discovery.
Data silos and reproducibility issues make it hard to leverage historical experiments, slowing progress and increasing costs.

Our Solution to AI-Driven R&D Optimization

Break free from R&D bottlenecks. Atinary’s code-free agentic AI platform, SDLabs, gives scientists direct access to AI-driven optimization without coding or ML expertise required. Focus on science, imagination, and ingenuity with AI tools that integrate seamlessly into your existing manual or automated workflows.

Connect Every Part of Your Lab—From Data to Devices

Atinary’s SDLabs platform is purpose-built to unify your entire R&D workflow, breaking down data silos and
enabling a truly digital, automated, and collaborative laboratory.
LIMS Compatibility
  • Instantly connect SDLabs with your Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). All experiment data—conditions, results, metadata—is automatically captured and accessible in one secure, searchable hub. No more manual data transfers, lost files, or fragmented records.
  • Example: Chemists can retrieve or analyze any historical experiment in seconds, supporting audits, compliance, and faster innovation.
Robotics & Automation Hardware
  • Seamlessly link SDLabs to lab robots, liquid handlers, and reactors for a closed-loop, fully autonomous experimentation process.
Real-World Integrations
  • IBM’s RoboRXN/Chemspeed: AI algorithms in SDLabs send experiment designs directly to the robot; results are automatically fed back for instant re-optimization.
  • ETH Zurich Catalyst Optimization: Robotic platforms execute batches of 24 experiments; results sync with SDLabs for next-iteration planning—no manual intervention.
  • Oligonucleotide Synthesis: SDLabs supports integration with Chemspeed and Unchained Labs robots, streamlining complex workflows.
