Why Choose LabKey as Your Laboratory Management System
Your science is complex. Your LIMS software shouldn't be.
CONFIGURABILITY
Configure Your LIMS to Match Your Lab Workflows
Most LIMS software lock you into rigid templates. LabKey configures to match your SOPs and adapts as your science evolves.
DATA INTEGRATION
Unified Lab Information System for All Your Data
LabKey captures, transforms, and links data from instruments, assays, and external systems automatically in a central LIMS database . No manual re-entry, no format wrangling, no silos.
CENTRALIZATION
One Laboratory Information System of Record
Ditch the spreadsheets and shared drives. Your samples, protocols, results, and reports all live in one LIMS platform— always current, always accessible.
IMPLEMENTATION
Live in Weeks, Not Months
Intuitive for bench scientists, powerful for informatics leads. A LIMS system with built-in integrations and extensible architecture so it grows with your stack.
ABOUT US
The LIMS software built by scientists, for scientists
— for over 20 years.
Founded in 2003 at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, LabKey was built by computational biologists to solve a problem they lived with daily: research data scattered across spreadsheets, instruments, and disconnected tools. Today, LabKey has expanded beyond the life sciences, supporting research at 300+ organizations worldwide — from leading universities and government agencies to pharmaceutical, biotech, mining, agricultural, and industrial R&D teams.
Headquartered in Seattle, our team of scientists, engineers, and informatics specialists has spent careers in research labs. You're working with people who understand sample lineage, GxP compliance, and the realities of bench science — not generic software vendors.
