About
Dotmatics is a comprehensive R&D software solution designed for modern scientific organizations seeking to digitally transform their research and development operations. At its core is the Scientific Intelligence Platform — an AI-powered hub for data management, workflow automation, and multimodal scientific discovery. The platform offers adaptive workflows that allow labs to customize, automate, and scale processes without heavy IT involvement. Its AI and machine learning capabilities enable scientists to accurately predict experimental outcomes, reducing trial cycles and accelerating discovery timelines. Material and ontology management features ensure full traceability of entities across experiments and studies. Dotmatics integrates a broad portfolio of best-in-class scientific applications, including SnapGene and Geneious Prime for bioinformatics, Vortex for cheminformatics, Prism for data analysis and visualization, OMIQ and FCS Express for flow cytometry, and Protein Metrics for proteomics. The Luma product line extends these capabilities with cloud-native integrations — including Geneious Luma for antibody discovery, BioGlyph Luma for protein design, and Lab Connect for automated instrument data ingestion. Dotmatics is purpose-built for enterprise R&D teams in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, chemicals, and materials science. It addresses critical challenges such as siloed scientific data, manual lab processes, and fragmented toolchains by providing a unified, AI-enhanced environment for end-to-end research management.
