We are excited to announce the launch of Location Manager, a new freezer management app that addresses the persistent challenges of laboratory sample storage and location tracking. This purpose-built solution helps scientists and lab operators to quickly find and track samples across storage environments, eliminating costly inefficiencies that waste thousands of lab hours annually.
Location Manager combines AI capabilities with intuitive visual tools to transform sample tracking workflows. The system features a natural language interface, allowing lab personnel to locate samples by simply asking questions like "Where is sample ID 2025-00345?" instead of navigating traditional menu hierarchies. This novel approach cuts sample retrieval time by 80%, enabling scientists to locate critical materials across freezer environments with unprecedented precision.
Key Features and Benefits
Location Manager offers several powerful capabilities designed to streamline lab operations.
The natural language interface allows scientists to find samples by asking simple questions, eliminating the need to navigate complex menu systems. Users can quickly locate materials by speaking or typing natural queries rather than clicking through multiple screens.
Interactive digital freezer maps provide clear visualization of all storage types, including standard -20°C, ultra-low -80°C freezers, and liquid nitrogen tanks. These intuitive visual representations make it easy to pinpoint exactly where samples are stored across the lab.
Automated monitoring and Quality Control (QC) features deliver proactive alerts for sample status and conditions. The system continuously tracks environmental parameters and notifies staff of any deviations, helping prevent sample degradation or loss.
AI-powered insights monitor reagent usage, predict expiration dates, and recommend optimal storage setups. This predictive intelligence helps labs maintain inventory levels and organize storage space efficiently, reducing waste and improving resource allocation.
Automated audit trails capture every sample movement and status update, supporting GLP, GMP, ISO, and FDA compliance without manual record-keeping. This comprehensive tracking creates a reliable chain of custody for all lab materials, simplifying regulatory compliance.
The impact on laboratory operations is measurable, with early adopters reporting an 80% reduction in sample retrieval time and nearly eliminating lost samples. Labs implementing Location Manager have eliminated error-prone spreadsheets and significantly reduced documentation workload, allowing scientists to focus on research priorities.
Building a Digital Foundation for Future Growth
This solution establishes a digital foundation for physical storage infrastructure, positioning laboratories for future scalability. As life science organizations increasingly leverage AI for research and operations, Location Manager converts sample data into a searchable, analyzable asset rather than an inaccessible physical inventory. This approach aligns with the industry's shift toward data-driven decision making, enabling labs to scale operations while maintaining precise sample traceability.
Looking ahead, Scispot plans to roll out additional AI Agents designed to tackle broader operational challenges in life science research, development, and production. The company continues to expand its AI platform, offering complementary agents for scientists, lab managers, and more. Future enhancements include deeper instrument integrations, advanced predictive analytics for experimental design, and new modules for real-time data analysis and multi-site inventory synchronization. These updates will further streamline lab workflows and enable seamless, data-driven operations by the end of 2025.
