Agentic AI for Instruments

Let AI agents talk to your instruments

We build MCP servers that expose lab instrument capabilities to AI agents. Scientists describe what they need in natural language. The instruments execute - with humans always in the loop.

Key Capabilities

Production-grade MCP infrastructure - not a prototype.

MCP Server Architecture

We build Model Context Protocol servers that expose instrument capabilities as structured tools. Any MCP-compatible AI agent can discover and invoke instrument operations - no custom integration required.

Natural Language Commands

Scientists describe what they need in plain English. The AI agent translates intent into validated instrument commands - handling parameter validation, safety checks, and error recovery automatically.

Human-in-the-Loop Guardrails

Every critical operation requires explicit human approval. Configurable safety policies, audit trails, and rollback mechanisms. The AI suggests - the scientist decides.

API Spec to MCP in Days

Have an instrument API spec (REST, gRPC, serial, proprietary)? We generate a production-grade MCP server from it. Schema validation, error handling, and observability included out of the box.

How It Works

From instrument API to AI-controlled lab in weeks, not months.

01

Instrument Discovery

We analyze your instrument APIs, communication protocols, and command structures. Serial, REST, gRPC, proprietary - we have seen it all.

02

MCP Server Generation

We build a Model Context Protocol server that wraps your instrument capabilities as structured tools with full schema validation and documentation.

03

Safety & Policy Layer

We configure human-in-the-loop approval flows, rate limits, parameter bounds, and audit logging. Every action is traceable and reversible.

04

Agent Integration

Connect any MCP-compatible AI agent - Claude, custom agents, or your existing LLM infrastructure. Scientists start controlling instruments through conversation.

Built on Real Instrument Experience

Our team has deep experience writing instrument control software for IVD diagnostic platforms, label-free detection systems, and real-time monitoring dashboards. We understand large-scale C++ and Rust codebases, containerized instrument runtimes, and the real constraints of shipping software for regulated environments.
