Problem
Traditional lab technologies often lag behind the rapid advancements in biology, creating bottlenecks in research and development. The manual and semi-automated processes common in many labs are time-consuming, prone to errors, and difficult to scale, hindering innovation in genetic engineering, molecular biology, and synthetic biology.
Solution
Trilobio offers a fully automated biology platform that integrates robotics, hardware, and software to streamline and accelerate lab processes. The platform centers around the Trilobot, a self-calibrating robot capable of performing a wide range of tasks through interchangeable tools. Trilobio OS, the platform's software, allows researchers to design and execute experiments, manage lab resources, and automatically document research. By automating repetitive tasks and optimizing workflows, Trilobio enables researchers to focus on experimental design and data analysis, increasing throughput and reproducibility.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes researchers and teams in genetic engineering, molecular biology, synthetic biology, microbiology, and biochemistry within academic research, therapeutics, and biotech companies.
Features
- Trilobot: A fast, reliable, and quiet robot that calibrates itself and collaborates with other Trilobots.
- Interchangeable Tools: Each Trilobot can house up to 8 different tools, including single and 8-channel pipettes, a perfect gripper, and a matrix tube opener (coming soon).
- Trilobio OS: Software that allows users to design experiments, convert protocols into machine code, and automatically create lab notebooks.
- Protocol Designer: Enables experiment design by describing desired outcomes, eliminating the need to specify individual pipettes, wells, or tubes.
- Research Engine: Converts protocols into Trilobot machine code, optimizing for speed, cost, or accuracy.
- Integrated LIMS: Manages Trilobot fleets and tracks supplies, materials, and samples.
- Open Architecture: Allows hardware and protocol developers to expand Trilobot functionality through custom tools, deck modules, and research protocols.
