What It Does
LabVia is a visual flow-based programming environment for laboratory automation. Instead of writing code to connect instruments, trigger workflows, or move data between systems, you build automation visually by connecting nodes on a canvas.
Drag-and-Drop Flow Builder
Build automation workflows by dragging nodes onto a visual canvas and connecting them. No programming languages to learn.
Event-Driven Architecture
Workflows trigger automatically based on events: a new file appearing, an instrument completing a run, or a manual approval being granted.
IoT Device Management
Connect and manage laboratory IoT devices directly. Monitor temperature sensors, balance readings, and environmental controls in real time.
Visual Flow Programming
Conditional logic, loops, error handling, and parallel execution paths are all represented visually in the flow designer.
Cloud-Based Automation Engine
Workflows execute on managed cloud infrastructure so they run reliably even when your local machines are offline.
Instrument Connectivity
Pre-built connectors for major laboratory instrument brands and protocols. Custom connectors available for proprietary equipment.
How It Works
LabVia is an integrated component of the ELN Suite, not a standalone tool that requires separate setup or maintenance. It shares the same authentication, data layer, and audit trail as every other suite application.
Design Your Flow
Open the visual canvas and drag nodes for triggers, actions, and logic. Connect them to define the execution path.
Configure Connections
Point each node at the right instrument, API, or data source. Test individual connections before deploying the full flow.
Deploy and Monitor
Publish your flow to the cloud engine. Monitor executions in real time and review the complete audit trail for every run.
When You Need It
LabVia is the right tool when your lab's processes have outgrown manual steps and disconnected scripts. If you recognize any of these situations, automation with LabVia can eliminate the manual work and reduce the errors.
Multi-Instrument Workflows
Your process involves data flowing between multiple instruments, each producing files that need to be parsed, validated, and combined before results make sense.
Real-Time Equipment Monitoring
Temperature excursions, pressure drops, or other environmental conditions need to trigger alerts or actions immediately to protect sample integrity.
Outgrown Spreadsheets and Scripts
Your lab relies on fragile Excel macros or scripts that only one person understands. LabVia makes automation visible, maintainable, and team-independent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need programming skills to use LabVia?
No. LabVia uses a visual drag-and-drop flow builder. You create automation by connecting nodes on a canvas. The visual representation makes complex processes understandable to anyone on the team, regardless of technical background.
What instruments and devices does LabVia connect to?
LabVia includes pre-built connectors for major laboratory instrument brands including HPLC systems, mass spectrometers, plate readers, balances, and environmental sensors. Custom connectors can be built for proprietary equipment through our professional services team.
Can workflows run when my computer is off?
Yes. Workflows execute on a managed cloud infrastructure, so they run reliably even when your local machines are offline. The engine handles scheduling, retries, and error recovery automatically.
How does LabVia handle errors in automated workflows?
Error handling is built into the visual flow designer. You can define fallback paths, retry logic, and notification triggers for any node. Every execution is logged with a complete audit trail so you can troubleshoot issues quickly.
Is LabVia a separate product or part of the ELN Suite?
LabVia is an integrated component of the ELN Suite. It shares the same authentication, data layer, and audit trail as every other suite application. There is no separate installation or licensing required.
Can I monitor IoT devices in real time?
Yes. LabVia connects to laboratory IoT devices and streams real-time data into your workflows. You can monitor temperature sensors, pressure readings, environmental controls, and other connected equipment, and trigger automated actions based on thresholds.
