Overview

Inniti is a Copenhagen-based SaaS company that develops equipment connectivity and middleware solutions to make laboratories smarter. Founded in 2017 by Danish entrepreneurs Malthe Muff and Anders Lund, Inniti acts as the middleware layer between laboratory instruments and downstream IT systems such as LIMS, ELN, SDMS, and AI platforms. The platform is manufacturer-agnostic, capable of connecting any lab instrument regardless of age, brand, or communication protocol — including legacy devices using RS-232, CSV, USB, or even paper-based output — and currently supports a library of over 3,300 connected instruments.

Inniti serves life sciences, biotech, pharmaceutical, and other research-intensive industries globally. Its core mission is to eliminate tedious manual data entry, reduce human error, and drive laboratory digitalization by enabling seamless, automated data transfer and real-time communication between analog, digital, and otherwise disconnected lab instruments and enterprise IT systems. The company is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, with teams in Bulgaria and Australia, and is backed by investors including Frontline Ventures, Vækstfonden, Axilium Holding, and Ocean Ventures.

Core Platform Modules

  • Control & Automate: Enables two-way communication between the Inniti platform and connected instruments, allowing users to fully automate and monitor continuous lab processes and workflows from anywhere at any time. Conditional workflows can be configured to reduce key-person dependency risk and relieve day-to-day manual workloads.
  • Track & Trace: Provides automated, granular sample tracking throughout the entire lab process — from sample preparation to final analytical results — without requiring manual note-taking. Designed to save significant time and eliminate paperwork in the lab.
  • Lab Monitoring: Offers smart, real-time monitoring of all connected lab instruments. Users can design personalised output monitoring dashboards and configure alarms based on live instrument data, helping to reduce energy costs and optimise lab operations.
  • Integrations: The Inniti platform integrates with any ELN, LIMS, or data processing software that exposes an API, enabling secure and automatic data transfer from instruments to existing enterprise systems and eliminating the need for USB sticks or manual data exporting.

Key Capabilities and Technical Approach

  • Manufacturer-agnostic connectivity — works with instruments from any brand or type, including Thermo Fisher, Agilent, Mettler Toledo, Danaher, Roche, Zeiss, and many others.
  • Handles legacy instruments with older communication interfaces such as RS-232, CSV, and USB, as well as stand-alone devices without built-in connectivity.
  • Built on FAIR data principles, normalising, standardising, and structuring instrument data for seamless LIMS and ELN integration.
  • Supports a wide range of instrument types including fermenters, pumps, scales, sensors, probes, valves, bioreactors, and chromatography systems.
  • Designed for compatibility with any global or local IT infrastructure.
  • Delivers an average ROI of 200–800% on a three-year contract, according to the company.

Client Use Cases and Notable Deployments

  • Automatic data logging and sample tracking: Inniti has removed tedious lab paperwork by automating data capture and sample tracking across entire workflows, from sample preparation through to final analytical results.
  • Automation of continuous processes: Clients have used Inniti to set conditional workflows for continuous processes, easing day-to-day workloads and reducing reliance on key personnel.
  • LIMS/ELN data transfer: Instrument data is securely and automatically transferred to existing LIMS or ELN systems, eliminating manual exporting and USB-based data transfer.
  • Aquaporin A/S: Inniti helped Aquaporin optimise QC and data logging, increasing QC testing capacity by 300%.
  • Leading Polish pharmaceutical company: Inniti launched a proof-of-concept to integrate multi-vendor lab instruments securely with LabWare LIMS.
  • International brewery: Inniti signed a five-year contract with a global brewery to automate QC lab data, reducing human error and supporting digital transformation and compliance.

Deployment and Company Background

  • Delivered as a SaaS solution, designed to fit any global or local IT infrastructure.
  • Trusted by major life science and biotech companies worldwide.
  • Originally introduced as the Inniti Connector Box — a hardware solution to bring smart connectivity to traditional lab instruments — and has since evolved into a comprehensive all-brand middleware software platform.
  • Proudly European, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark (Amerika Plads 21B), with operational teams in Sofia, Bulgaria, and Australia.
  • Founded in 2017; leadership team includes CEO Thomas Lund and CTO and Co-Founder Anders Lund.

Inniti continues to expand its instrument driver library and partner ecosystem, positioning itself as the connectivity backbone for modern, digitally transformed laboratories across life sciences, pharma, biotech, and beyond.
