Control lab instruments with natural language.
Describe an experiment in plain English, and Infera turns it into a validated, instrument-ready run across the equipment your lab already uses. Infera handles the protocol logic, vendor-specific scripts, data, inventory, and institutional knowledge in one system. An AI-native compiler for the lab: one system from intent to execution.
Infera positions itself as an operating system for laboratories, offering end-to-end protocol validation, experiment preview, lab ordering, and data analysis. It presents a unified workspace for managing protocols, instrument actions, and data traces backed by YC funding.
The platform shows a lab operating system that orchestrates protocol execution and data handling. It provides a live workspace preview of experiments, supports protocol compilation and validation, executes steps through instrument/ liquid handler actions, traces and audits runs, and exports finalized protocols. It appears to integrate protocol scripts, device commands, and data auditing into a single end-to-end workflow with safety and human-in-the-loop controls.
Who it’s for: laboratories and research labs that run molecular biology workflows, including PCR setup and plate-based assays, requiring protocol validation, execution orchestration, and data audit trails
