Platform functions & capabilities

Platform functions and capabilities.

Scifeon is a modular platform that combines ELN, LIMS, workflow automation and data reporting in one system. Below is a breakdown of core platform features, grouped by functionality.

Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN)

Structured experiment documentation, SOP management, and collaboration in research and process labs.

  • Structured data entry with fully configurable templates
  • Version-controlled SOP management and digital records
  • Experiment tracking with complete edit history
  • Notes, attachments, and annotations per entry
  • Built-in calculation tools for dilutions and curve fitting
  • Plate-based workflows, e.g. cherry picking and assay mapping
  • Digital sign-off and approval routing
  • Collaboration and commenting at record level

LIMS functionality

Managing samples, batches, and inventory in QC and regulated environments.

  • Sample registration with automatic barcode generation
  • Plate, lot, and batch tracking across workflows
  • Material and reagent inventory with expiry monitoring
  • Label printing with configurable templates
  • Result entry templates per test type
  • Configurable test plans and analysis protocols
  • Full traceability with role-based access control

Workflow automation

Digitizing handoffs, approvals, and recurring laboratory routines.

  • Request creation and routing, e.g. from QA to laboratory teams
  • Status tracking per sample, step, or process
  • Automated notifications and action triggers
  • Integration with instruments and file systems via APIs and file watchers
  • Dashboard-based process control and monitoring
  • SOP-driven conditional workflows
  • Order management — customer portal

Instrument integration

Connecting lab instruments and systems for automated, transcription-free data capture.

  • InstrumentHub connections to lab instruments and devices
  • Automated data capture — no manual transcription
  • File watchers for instrument output folders
  • REST APIs for ERP, MES, and analytics systems
  • Configurable parsers for instrument file formats
  • Bi-directional sync with full data traceability

Reporting & lab data management

Handling, visualizing, and sharing lab data across experiments and teams.

  • Spreadsheet-like data views for intuitive data navigation
  • Custom reports with embedded calculations
  • Real-time dashboards and interactive charts
  • Audit-ready data export for regulatory compliance
  • Automated PDF and table report generation
  • Integration-ready output formats, including CSV, JSON, and XML

Compliance

Built for regulated environments, with traceability and validation at the core.

  • 21 CFR Part 11 — electronic records and signatures
  • GMP ready — auto-testing with QA-ready test report
  • ISO 17025 — competence for testing and calibration labs
  • Complete audit trails with role-based access control

Insights · built-in module

Analytics and data visualization.

Insights is Scifeon's analytics module — turn experiment and sample data into interactive charts, dashboards, and comparative views, live inside the platform with no export to a spreadsheet. Scientists at EvodiaBio credit comparative analysis and graphic representation for at least a 50% productivity gain.

  • Interactive charts and real-time dashboards
  • Comparative analysis across experiments and batches
  • Embedded calculations and curve fitting
  • Drill from a visualization straight to the underlying records
  • Share live views with colleagues — no Excel round-trip
Frequently asked questions

The questions labs ask us most.

ELNs focus on experiment documentation and flexible collaboration, while a LIMS manages sample tracking, workflows, and compliance. Scifeon integrates both into a single modular platform so labs avoid switching systems and can scale without redesigning their data infrastructure.
Scifeon uses a pilot-first implementation model, showing results early. At EvodiaBio, researchers achieved a 50% productivity increase after just six weeks by focusing on specific workflows first rather than big-bang deployments.
Yes. Scifeon avoids long, high-cost rollouts by starting with a focused pilot and gradually extending modules as needs grow. This reduces upfront costs and accelerates ROI, making it suitable for startups, scale-ups, and established labs alike.
Yes. Scifeon adapts to different environments: R&D teams use it as an ELN for experiment design, data capture, and collaboration; QC labs leverage LIMS features like sample registration, batch tracking, and audit-ready reporting. Because modules are configurable and interoperable, one platform serves both contexts.
Yes. Scifeon connects via APIs and file watchers, enabling smooth data flow from lab instruments, ERP/MES systems, and analytics tools. This removes manual data transcription, speeds up reporting, and improves traceability.
Scifeon digitises handoffs, approvals, and recurring processes through configurable SOP-driven workflows. Requests, notifications, and instrument data are routed automatically, reducing administrative overhead and enabling faster decision cycles.
