GeNovu

GeNovu is a laboratory automation and intelligence platform founded in 2014 by scientists and engineers with deep, hands-on experience in biological laboratories. The company serves pharmaceutical, biotech, biorepository, and government research organizations, offering a fully integrated suite of software products and expert services designed to simplify scientific automation from initial method development through enterprise-scale deployment. With over a decade of 100% client satisfaction, GeNovu acts as a single partner for a lab's entire technology stack — from custom Hamilton and Tecan programming to AI-powered analytics.

Unlike generic platforms that require months of customization, GeNovu was purpose-built for the workflows that matter most in pharma and biotech labs. The platform addresses a core industry challenge: powerful automation equipment that only one or two experts can operate, leaving million-dollar instruments underutilized and creating bottlenecks in assay development, data analysis, and scientist training. GeNovu transforms this dynamic, enabling labs to expand automation access from a handful of specialists to 50 or more users, reduce new assay development time by 87%, and complete scientist training in hours rather than months.

Core Platform Products

• Workflow Wizards: A visual experiment design tool that allows scientists to configure plate layouts, concentrations, and protocols without any programming knowledge. Experiments can be designed in minutes and executed directly on Hamilton or Tecan automation platforms, with visual loading instructions guiding users step by step.
• Integrated LIMS: A laboratory information management system that tracks every sample from receipt through final results, providing complete chain of custody, reagent management, automated data capture, and compliance-ready documentation.
• AI Intelligence: An AI assistant capable of PhD-level analysis in seconds, with no data export or upload required. Because the AI lives within the same platform where experiments are designed and executed, it has full experimental context and can respond to questions asked in plain English.
• LabVision: A real-time monitoring module that provides live visibility into laboratory operations and instrument activity.

Purpose-Built Scientific Workflows

• Pharmacokinetic Bioanalysis (DMPK/PK): Automates standard curve preparation, QC preparation, and sample dilutions with intelligent volume calculations.
• Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Screening: Accelerates identification of optimal screening conditions through automated condition ranking and statistical analysis, supporting screening assays, confirmatory testing, and titer analysis.
• Flow Cytometry — Cell Staining and Analysis: Enables configuration of complex antibody panels, FMO controls, and multi-step staining protocols with visual plate mapping.
• Genomics — DNA Assembly and Library Prep: Manages Golden Gate assembly workflows from inventory management through robotic execution, with complete sample traceability.
• Custom solutions are also developed for workflows not covered by standard modules, with every implementation tailored to the client's specific needs.

Integration and Automation Platform Support

• GeNovu integrates natively with leading laboratory automation platforms including Hamilton, Tecan, and Beckman Coulter.
• Custom Hamilton and Tecan programming services are offered as part of the company's broader expert services portfolio.
• The end-to-end workflow connects experiment design, robotic execution, and AI-driven analysis without requiring data export or manual file transfers between systems.

Compliance and Regulated Environment Readiness

• GeNovu provides tools specifically designed for regulated laboratory environments, including complete audit trails, electronic signatures, and role-based access control.
• The platform is built to support 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and is compatible with GLP, GCP, and GMP requirements.
• Enterprise security is incorporated into every implementation from the ground up.

Company Background and Differentiators

• Founded in 2014 by scientists and engineers who have personally worked at laboratory benches — pipetting samples, designing databases, writing reports, and programming robotic systems.
• The team has implemented large-scale automation and data integration projects at leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies, giving GeNovu a unique combination of scientific understanding and software engineering expertise.
• Every solution is custom-built rather than off-the-shelf, tailored to each client's specific laboratory workflows and organizational needs.
• Key milestones include securing its first major pharmaceutical enterprise client in 2016, launching an integrated AI assistant for real-time analysis in 2019, and reaching ten years of continuous operation with 100% customer satisfaction in 2024.
• GeNovu serves clients across the pharmaceutical, biorepository, biotech, and government research industries.

GeNovu's mission is to make scientific automation accessible to every scientist in the lab — not just automation specialists — while delivering the compliance infrastructure, AI-driven insights, and integration depth that modern pharma and biotech organizations require. Personalized demos are available with responses guaranteed within 24 hours.
