Scisure (scisure.com) is a cloud-based digital laboratory platform designed to streamline how research teams manage experiments, inventory, data workflows, and compliance. Positioned similarly to ELN/LIMS hybrids like Labguru, Benchling, and SciNote, Scisure differentiates itself through a modular architecture and enterprise-centric features aimed at mid-to-large research organizations.
A Unified Platform for Lab Operations
Scisure’s strength lies in offering a full-stack digital lab environment, covering:
Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN)
A structured environment for documenting experiments, protocols, observations, and results. Its ELN emphasizes reproducibility, traceability, and audit readiness.
Inventory & Sample Management
Tools for tracking reagents, consumables, samples, and equipment across lab locations. Scisure includes barcoding, batch/lot tracking, and alerts for stock depletion.
Workflow Automation & Digital Compliance
Scisure includes controlled access, versioning, audit trails, and compliance features relevant to regulated labs (GLP/GxP environments). This makes it suitable for biotech and clinical R&D teams.
Instrument Integration
Data ingestion from laboratory instruments (where supported), helping labs maintain unified records and reduce manual data entry.
Team Collaboration & Data Governance
Fine-grained permissions, project-level organization, and cloud-based collaboration allow distributed teams to work within the same shared digital environment.
Noteworthy Development: Acquisition of Labfolder & Labregister
In 2024, Scisure made a major strategic move by acquiring Labfolder and Labregister, two well-established digital lab products from Labforward.
This acquisition signals:
- A push to consolidate the digital-lab space
- An expansion of Scisure’s feature set, especially around structured data and inventory systems
- An orientation toward building an integrated platform across ELN, sample management, and data workflows
The combination of Scisure + Labfolder + Labregister positions the company strongly against incumbents like Benchling, Sapio, and Labguru.
Strengths
Enterprise-Focused Architecture
Scisure’s design reflects the needs of biotech, manufacturing, and high-throughput labs—security, audit logs, data integrity, and modular scaling.
Modular & Extensible
Users can adopt the platform in stages: ELN first, then inventory, then workflow automation—suitable for labs modernizing gradually.
Post-Acquisition Synergy
Integrating Labfolder and Labregister gives Scisure a more mature ecosystem and large user base from day one.
Limitations
Younger Product Compared to Benchling or Labguru
Although rapidly evolving, Scisure may lack the ecosystem maturity, plugin depth, or community scale of older platforms.
Enterprise Leaning
Smaller academic labs may find the platform overly feature-heavy unless adapted for lighter use.
Integration Depth Still Growing
Compared with industry leaders, Scisure is still building deeper integrations with instruments, analysis pipelines, and ERP/LIMS environments.
