    Give your scientists their time back.

    Your scientists didn't get PhDs to compare supplier prices. Every hour spent on procurement is an hour not spent on the research that could change everything.

    At most early-stage and growing labs, lab operations fall on the shoulders of scientists, operations leads, or finance teams — people already wearing too many hats.

    The hidden cost of DIY lab operations.

    When administrative overhead becomes your biggest experiment risk. 

    • Your $150,000-a-year scientist spends 20% of their time on $15-an-hour administrative tasks.
    • Critical experiments get delayed while waiting for the "right price" on reagents.
    • Your team's breakthrough potential is buried under purchase orders and vendor emails.



    Group of Virtual Lab Managers

    Meet your Virtual Lab Manager. 

    Our Virtual Lab Managers are PhD-trained procurement experts who speak your scientific language, so they understand what you need and know how to deliver it quickly. 

    Instead of spending weeks comparing pipette prices or wrestling with purchase orders, you get to spend that time at the bench or analyzing data. It's like having an ultra-efficient lab manager minus the overhead of another full-time employee.
