Plato is highly adaptable and integrates with a range of industry-standard multi-well instruments, including BMG Labtech Clariostar for fluorescence and luminescence readings, Tecan Fluent for automated pipetting, Hamilton Microlab STAR for precise liquid handling, and Applied Biosystems qPCR systems. Plato’s intelligent integration ensures seamless data flow between devices, eliminating manual entry errors. With built-in flexibility, Plato adapts to instrument updates or changes in your workflow, making it a future-ready solution for your lab.

Absolutely. Plato uses AI-driven customization to create plate layouts tailored precisely to your assay needs, such as ELISA, cytotoxicity assays, cell viability, and qPCR studies. It supports unique configurations, including duplicate and triplicate wells, randomized layouts, and control wells, giving you advanced control over setup. With saved templates, Plato streamlines repeated assays, ensuring accuracy while saving you setup time in future experiments.

Plato instantly converts raw multi-well data—such as fluorescence, absorbance, or Ct values—into actionable insights with AI-suggested visualizations tailored to assay types like ELISA or qPCR. Its automated QC checks ensure real-time data quality, flagging anomalies as they arise. Plato’s adaptive visualization tools let you track performance metrics, identify trends, and highlight outliers with ease, giving you fast, data-driven insights to refine workflows and boost reproducibility across experiments.

Plato’s AI-powered plate mapping intelligently suggests the best layouts and templates for your experiment type, even pre-setting control positions to enhance precision and efficiency. With simple backslash commands, you can open and adjust layouts, set up rows and columns, and color-code wells by sample type or condition. This smart mapping process makes it easy to design complex plates in 96- and 384-well formats, perfectly suited to each experiment.

Absolutely. Plato leverages AI-driven rules to automate sample assignments, optimizing well placement based on your criteria and experiment needs. You can define custom allocation rules, and Plato ensures a balanced distribution of samples and precise control placements. This smart automation reduces setup time and errors, ensuring a consistent, streamlined workflow tailored to your exact specifications.

Plato intelligently integrates with various plate readers, including BMG Clariostar, automatically importing and organizing raw data directly within the Scispot system. Its AI capabilities go beyond basic import, structuring data consistently and preparing it for immediate analysis. This smart, seamless integration eliminates manual entry and transcription errors, creating a smooth pipeline from data capture to result interpretation.
