Launch week: every idea card is free.Get Pro

SaaS ideas, mined from what people actually complain about.

Every idea comes from real Reddit posts, was researched against today's competitors, and survived an independent skeptic before it made the list.

Sample and Reagent Tracking

Small labs struggle to track samples, reagents, protocols, and records across paper, spreadsheets, and memory, causing lost traceability and errors.

In their words

the real answer to "where did this line come from" is usually someone's memory or a slack thread from july

It’s annoying when you have a timeframe to stick with and the lab that you’re paying $$$$ for it not holding up their end

r/PeptidePathways on Reddit

Right now we are using Excel/Word and shared drives, of which the former is something we would REALLY like to move away from, due to data integrity.

r/labrats on Reddit

We are talking hours of work per test... resulted in 6-8 week delay in releasing the product

r/SoftwareEngineerJobs on Reddit

After this contract ends I will probably do cleaning and calibration myself as its also good to be able to do when needed.

r/massspectrometry on Reddit

The LIS was storing years as two digits, because disk and memory were that precious in the 80s

r/sysadmin on Reddit

I literally have to relabel everything because the analyzers won’t read barcodes sideways.

r/medlabprofessionals on Reddit

I have to pay a German company a license fee every time I run a PCR test, a device company a service fee just so I can send them malfunctioning instruments

r/medicine on Reddit

Running patient testing before acceptable QC goes against everything I was taught.

r/medlabprofessionals on Reddit

Asking where their slides are after we put them in their box.

r/Histology on Reddit

we've been surviving on shared drives and a complicated system of "final_v2_final_actualfinal.docx" for years

r/biotech on Reddit

We can't afford any downtime. We need the same reagent, month after month, year after year.

Small lab researchers and managers

Where they talk

  • r/labrats
  • r/medlabprofessionals
  • r/chemistry
  • r/Histology
  • r/biotech
  • r/clinicalresearch
  • r/Professors
  • r/bioinformatics

Tools they use today

  • Excel
  • LIS
  • Epic
  • LIMS
  • LabArchives
  • Claude
  • ELN
  • Google Sheets

Why those fall short

  • custom 1980s system, no four-digit year support, vendor nearly gone
  • Analyzers cannot read sideways or misplaced barcodes; nurses keep mislabeling.
  • no linkage between raw data and reported group assignments
  • vendors charge fees and admin reporting is redundant
  • components not yet arrived; only two tip boxes per size
