What Lab Symplified does

Lab Symplified is a Naperville, Illinois-based SaaS company (incorporated in Delaware as LabSymplified, Inc., founded 2021) that sells a unified laboratory operations management platform to clinical and diagnostic laboratories. The platform bundles Inventory Management, Electronic Logs, Quality Management, and Digital Shift Reports into a cloud-based system that uses barcode scanning, lot and expiration tracking, multi-location transfers, and digital maintenance and compliance records to support CAP, CLIA, COLA, and ISO requirements. It is HIPAA compliant and explicitly designed by laboratorians for laboratorians, with domain-specific features such as lot-to-lot QC correlation, proficiency test management, and shift handoff workflows that differentiate it from generic inventory or ERP tools.

The product portfolio includes a full-platform subscription, an entry-level tier called Lab Symplified Lite for small-to-medium labs, and a Mobile Drive workflow module for blood center mobile drives. Pricing is quote-based for enterprise deployments, with an average annual subscription of approximately $12,000 per lab and a 1-month free trial available. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales, inside sales, self-serve trial, and a Referral Partner Program offering 20% recurring commission for 5 years, supplemented by a strategic partnership with Lighthouse Lab Services.

The customer base spans hospital-based labs, multi-location lab networks, private diagnostics, pathology, behavioral health, academic medical centers, and blood centers, with named enterprise references including Northwestern University, Inova, Franciscan Health, Mosaic Diagnostics, Recovery Centers of Montana, COOPathology Watch, and a multi-site Utah laboratory. The company has a 1-10 employee footprint, a single disclosed $150,000 funding round from Right Side Capital Management (April 2025), and over 150 product demos conducted to date.
