With LabV, R&D Teams Accelerate innovation, Uncover Hidden Trends, and Access Unified Data Effortlessly.

R&D Teams Face Fragmented Data, Pressure to Innovate and Rising Cost Challenges

Data scattered across different systems slows down decision-making and hampers collaboration between teams.

The constant demand for faster innovation puts teams under intense pressure to deliver new products quickly.

Keeping development costs under control is difficult when R&D processes are inefficient and lack proper data integration.

Eliminate Inefficiencies, Make Faster Decisions With Our Material Intelligence Platform

Without LabV:


  • Innovation Stalled by Fragmented Data. Teams spend hours searching through disconnected systems for relevant data, wasting time and slowing down material innovation efforts.
  • Loss of Valuable Data and Potential IP. Only final formulations are documented, meaning critical data generated during the development process is lost, risking valuable intellectual property.
  • Reinventing the Wheel with Every Project. Critical development insights are scattered or lost, forcing teams to duplicate efforts rather than building on existing knowledge.

With LabV:


  • Complete, Unified Data for Better Decisions: All material data is accessible in one place, eliminating data silos and ensuring decisions are informed by comprehensive, accurate insights.
  • Enhanced Collaboration and Knowledge Retention: Teams share knowledge seamlessly across projects, leveraging historical data to prevent knowledge loss and ensure continuous improvement across development cycles.
  • Accelerated Innovation with AI-Driven Insights: Material innovation moves faster by harnessing AI-powered tools that reduce reliance on physical testing, allowing teams to focus on creative problem-solving.

Fewer tests means fewer engineering hours and faster development. With LabV we have a saving of 10% in engineering hours

The key features of our material intelligence platform for R&D teams

PROJECT
MANAGEMENT

Unified Project Oversight for R&D Departments 

Centralize all stages of R&D projects, from planning through to testing and analysis, in one platform. Track each experiment, manage timelines, and ensure data consistency, empowering teams to stay on top of every project phase for more predictable outcomes and faster development cycles.

FORMULATION
DEVELOPMENT

Effortless Formulation Development 

Quickly develop, test, and refine formulations in a dedicated workspace that integrates recipe data, test results, and process parameters. Accelerate iteration cycles by having all formulation data in one place, making it easier to identify successful variations and streamline the R&D workflow.

RESOURCE
MANAGEMENT

Centralized Tracking and Allocation Efficiency 

Easily organize and allocate lab resources, from raw materials to testing equipment, in one centralized system. Monitor usage and availability in real-time to prevent bottlenecks and ensure the right resources are accessible exactly when needed, improving project flow and resource utilization.

EQUIPMENT
CONNECTION

Automated Data Imports for Accurate, Reliable Results 

Link lab equipment directly to the platform for automated data transfers, minimizing manual entry and ensuring precise data integration. Intelligent mapping harmonizes incoming data across tests and equipment, providing reliable, accessible data for every formulation and experiment.

COLLABORATION

Real-Time R&D Collaboration for Accelerated Results

Empower development teams to work together seamlessly, sharing insights and experiment data in real-time. Facilitate collaborative decision-making and reduce lag times across R&D phases, ensuring every member stays informed and aligned for faster, informed project advancements.
