LEO
Transform your laboratory
Laboratories are increasingly working across disconnected systems, manual processes and fragmented data.
SynthVaults helps organisations create a connected digital laboratory through LEO a configurable platform that brings scientific, operational and business processes together.
Explore how LEO can transform your organisation
LEO
One platform, Multiple transformation paths
Every organisation starts from a different point. Some need to modernise an existing LIMS. Others need to connect instruments and legacy systems. Some are building a new laboratory from the ground up.
LEO is designed to support different transformation journeys without requiring organisations to replace everything at once.
LEO can help you:
Digitise laboratory processes
Standardise data capture
Automate routine workflows
Improve sample and inventory traceability
Create a single source of operational data
Digitise laboratory processes
LIMS Modernisation
Modernise your laboratory without creating another technology silo
Traditional LIMS implementations can become difficult to adapt as laboratory processes evolve.
LEO provides a configurable foundation for modern laboratory information management while allowing organisations to integrate with existing systems.
LEO can support:
Sample management
Test and result management
Inventory
Instrument management
Workflow automation
Quality processes
Document management
Reporting and analytics
API-based integration
Lab of the future
Build the connected laboratory
The laboratory of the future will not be defined by a single application.
It will be defined by how effectively data, instruments, people, processes and systems work together.
LEO provides a digital foundation for this transformation:
From:
Disconnected systems
Manual processes
Data silos
Reactive operations
Towards:
Connected systems
Automated workflows
Structured data
Intelligent operations
LEO supports the progression from digitalisation and connectivity towards automation, analytics and AI.
Lab 4.0
From digital laboratory to intelligent laboratory
Lab 4.0 brings together concepts from digitalisation, automation, interoperability, connected instruments, data analytics and artificial intelligence.
LEO is designed around these principles.
Connect
Integrate instruments, laboratory systems, enterprise applications and external data sources.
Standardise
Create consistent data structures, metadata and processes.
Automate
Use workflows and rules to reduce repetitive manual activity.
Understand
Turn operational and scientific data into actionable information.
Optimise
Use analytics and AI to identify opportunities for improvement.
Evolve
Configure and extend the platform as requirements change.
LEO provides the digital infrastructure for organisations moving towards Lab 4.0.
Enterprise Integration
Connect science with the rest of the organisation
Laboratory systems should not operate as isolated islands.
Research, laboratory, quality, procurement, finance, commercial and operational teams all depend on related information.
LEO is designed to connect these processes through a common platform and integration architecture.
Connect LEO with:
Laboratory
LIMS · ELN · Instruments · Sample Systems
Operations
MES · Manufacturing · Projects · Facilities
Enterprise
ERP · Finance · Procurement · HR
Commercial
CRM · Sales · Customer Management
External Systems
APIs · Data Platforms · Legacy Applications
This creates a connected flow of information across the organisation rather than forcing teams to work across disconnected systems.
Sustainable Laboratories
Make laboratory sustainability measurable
Laboratories consume significant amounts of energy, water, consumables and other resources.
Digital systems can provide the data needed to understand where resources are being used and where efficiency can be improved.
LEO can connect operational data with sustainability initiatives across the laboratory.
Equipment
Monitor utilisation and resource consumption.
Inventory
Reduce excess stock, expiry and unnecessary waste
Experiments
Understand consumable usage and process efficiency
Procurement
Connect purchasing decisions with suppliers, materials and operational requirements
Operations
Measure resource utilisation and identify opportunities for improvement
LEO can support organisations developing more sustainable laboratory operations and can align with sustainability frameworks such as LEAF where appropriate.
Intelligent Laboratory Operations
Turn connected data into better decisions
Connecting systems is only the beginning.
Once laboratory and operational data is structured and contextualised, organisations can begin using advanced analytics and AI to support decision-making and automation.
Potential applications include:
-
Natural-language data exploration
-
Laboratory AI assistants
-
Intelligent workflow support
-
Anomaly detection
-
Inventory optimisation
-
Equipment utilisation analysis
-
Predictive maintenance
-
Automated reporting
-
Document intelligence
-
Operational insights
LEO is designed to provide the underlying data and process architecture required for this evolution.
Progressive Transformation
You don’t have to transform everything at once
Large laboratory organisations rarely have the opportunity to replace every system simultaneously.
LEO is designed around a progressive transformation model.
01 — Connect
Integrate existing systems and data sources.
02 — Digitise
Move manual processes into structured digital workflows.
03 — Modernise
Introduce modern laboratory applications where they provide value.
04 — Integrate
Connect laboratory, operational and enterprise processes.
05 — Optimise
Use data, analytics and automation to improve performance.
06 — Intelligently operate
Introduce AI-assisted decision-making and automation.
Start where the greatest need exists. Expand when the organisation is ready.
Comprehesive solution
Solutions for Every Stage of Laboratory Growth
Whether you are establishing a new laboratory, modernising an existing environment or connecting a complex enterprise, LEO provides a configurable foundation that can evolve with your organisation.
Start-up & Emerging Laboratories
Build digital infrastructure without accumulating disconnected systems.
Growing Laboratories
Standardise processes and create scalable workflows as teams and operations expand.
Established Laboratories
Modernise legacy environments while integrating existing systems.
Enterprise Organisations
Connect laboratory, quality, operational and business processes across the organisation.
Built Around Your Processes
Your laboratory is unique. Your software should be configurable.
LEO is built around reusable platform capabilities including:
Configuration Engine
Adapt the platform to organisational requirements.
Form Engine
Create structured interfaces for different processes and users.
Workflow Engine
Digitise and automate laboratory and business processes.
Rules Engine
Define validation, decisions, approvals and business logic.
Integration Layer
Connect instruments, applications, APIs and legacy systems.
Data & Metadata Architecture
Create a consistent foundation for structured information.
Build a more connected laboratory.
Capabilities are shared across the LEO platform rather than being isolated inside individual applications.
From Laboratory Software to Laboratory Infrastructure
The future of laboratory digitalisation is not simply about adding more applications.
It is about creating an environment where data, processes, people, instruments and systems work together.
That is the purpose of LEO.
