Plato recently launched!

Launch YC: Plato - Scispot

"Connect your plate readers, Tecan and Hamilton, using Scispot’s AI agent."

Founded by Guru Singh & Satya Singh

Scispot is launching the world’s first agent for multi-well plates called Plato.

Plato has the wisdom of plate automation not philosophy.

A multi-well plate is basically a lab tool with multiple tiny "wells" or slots in one single tray. Each well can hold a separate sample, letting you run lots of tests at once—ideal for experiments like drug screening or diagnostics. It’s like having a mini grid of test tubes all in one place, so you can work faster and more efficiently.

Plato is the agent that helps wet lab scientists design, load, integrate and run their multi-well plates using natural language. It understands the input and output from various plate readers such as BMG Clariostar for your assays. It also seamlessly integrates with Tecan and Hamilton for dilution.

While designing your experiments, scientists can use Plato to create controls— standards for their assays— using AI.

Problem

A wet lab scientist typically follows the journey of:

  • Designing a plate in excel
  • Enter sample details such as IDs, concentration, standards and controls
  • Prepare samples in plate according to layout and execute experiment
  • Get the readings
  • Add the raw data back to their ELN or LIMS system
  • Cross-check data for errors and manually correct if needed

This process is not only time consuming, but labor intensive and leaves room for a lot of errors. It also doesn’t create a complete chain of custody for your plate data. You end up compromising your data integrity.

In a high throughput lab you cannot follow this process for 100s of plates!

Solution

With Scispot’s AI-powered Plato, the process finally shifts to where it should be: automated. Plate configurations happen at the click of a button, data flows directly into Scispot (ELN/LIMS), and error-checking is automatic. The time saved here isn’t just convenient; it maintains the complete chain of custody. You can also create plates in bulk using Plato while automating the logistics of moving, and transferring data.

Once you have this data in one place called, Scispot Labsheets (Scispot data lake), you can then easily run regression or analytics.

As a result, you save a LOT of time while being compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance controls.
