Xavo Core
Sample and inventory tracking for labs, deployable in hours with flexible metadata and storage management.
Overview
Xavo Core is a cloud-hosted sample management and lab inventory platform designed for biotech, CRO, and academic labs that want to move quickly from spreadsheets or legacy systems to structured digital inventory. It is built to be activated in minutes, requiring no lengthy IT projects, custom implementation, or dedicated administrators.
The platform supports tracking of samples, reagents, cell lines, oligos, chemical compounds, and other lab materials, with configurable metadata fields to suit different laboratory types and workflows. Storage infrastructure — including freezers, fridges, cabinets, and drawers — can be represented digitally, giving teams real-time visibility into what is stored where and how much space remains.
Core Inventory Management Capabilities
- Tracks any lab material type, including cell lines, reagents, oligos, and chemical compounds
- Supports user-defined sample types and custom metadata fields
- Enables tracking of attributes such as passage history, batch numbers, expiry dates, and storage conditions
- Provides full visibility into physical storage locations and available space
- Identifies temperature-controlled or restricted storage areas
Sample History and Audit Trail
- Automatically records every key interaction with lab materials, including creation, movement, editing, and removal
- Logs timestamps and user actions for each event
- Provides a clear audit trail to support accountability and record confidence without requiring formal processes
Access and Authentication
- Supports Single Sign-On (SSO) integration with existing authentication providers, including Azure AD, Okta, and other SAML-compliant systems

Technology Architecture
- Cloud-native platform with containerised applications, Kubernetes-orchestrated and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a single-tenant deployment
- Multi-user system with optional SSO provider integration
- Multi-tier, distributed architecture supporting elastic horizontal and vertical scaling
- Ready-to-integrate with external systems and lab equipment via IoT agents and UI
Deployment and Scalability
- Fully hosted SaaS solution, activatable in minutes with no infrastructure requirements
- Designed as a cost-effective entry point compared to traditional LIMS systems
- Supports upgrade paths to Xavo Professional or Enterprise tiers as lab needs grow
- All data, configuration, and history carry over on upgrade, avoiding data migration
Xavo Core is positioned as a starting point for labs entering digital inventory management, with a deployment model suited to teams that need rapid setup and a scalable foundation for future automation or compliance requirements.
