Overview
QBench provides a cloud-based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) that helps labs manage their entire testing workflow—from sample receipt to automated results reporting. It offers a modular platform with an API, Inventory Management, Customer Portal, Billing, and Quality Management System to streamline operations, replace spreadsheets and paper tracking, and enable faster setup. The product works by delivering a configurable, web-based solution that labs can enable quickly and customize through its modules and API, allowing automation of tasks and data flow across the lab. QBench differentiates itself with a developer-friendly API, a comprehensive suite of integrated modules, and a cloud-based, easy-to-configure environment designed to reduce manual processes and accelerate lab workflows. The company’s goal is to help labs run their operations smoothly and efficiently at scale by providing a complete, configurable LIMS that automates workflows from intake to reporting.
