About us
The mission behind LabNote.Light
We're convinced that every lab deserves access to modern documentation — regardless of size or budget.
WHY WE EXIST
Good lab software shouldn't be a privilege reserved for large corporations.
We build LabNote.Light because small and mid-sized labs are stuck between Excel chaos and six-figure enterprise ELNs. That choice should be easier.
Our story
LabNote.Light grew out of a simple observation: small and medium labs still work with paper notebooks or oversized enterprise systems that are neither affordable nor easy to use.
Our team combines experience from lab work, software development, and lab documentation requirements. We built LabNote.Light to close that gap: an ELN as simple as a notebook — and as traceable as a document control system.
Development runs in exchange with contract labs, biotech teams and university groups. What the product pages describe exists in the product; planned features are labelled as planned.
OUR PROMISE
What we build — and what we don't
We build
- ELN, LIMS and compliance — in one workspace
- EU hosting, GDPR, hash-chain audit trail
- Real self-service export (GDPR Art. 20)
- Transparent per-user pricing, every module included
We don't
- Feature-gate between plans
- Lock you in on export
- Sell your data or third-party tracking
- Lock you into terms beyond annual billing
Our values
Focus
We build exactly what labs need — nothing more, nothing less. No feature bloat.
Transparency
Clear pricing, open communication, no hidden costs.
Customer proximity
Every feature is shaped in dialogue with researchers and lab managers.
Accessibility
Enterprise features at SME prices. Good software should not fail on budget.
