LabStocker

Managing reagents with a smartphone

Facing any of these challenges?

  • Tracking inventory in Excel takes a lot of effort
  • Systems that require a QR code on every container are too much work to manage
  • Reagent management systems built for large enterprises are too expensive

LabStocker is a cloud-based reagent management system built for small teams

Most reagent management systems are designed for large enterprises, and they can be too expensive and too much work for smaller teams.

Small and mid-sized companies

Keep the records you need for audits and hazardous chemical control with minimal effort.

University labs

Members change often in academic labs. Since everyone uses their own smartphone, just invite new members and they can start right away.

Schools

Record the use of chemicals in your school's science lab every day, and export a chemical inventory as a CSV file whenever you need it.

Why LabStocker

Works on your smartphone

Scan barcodes with your smartphone camera and save a record immediately.

Scanning a barcode with a smartphone camera

Easy to manage

QR code labels and usage logging are optional, so you can apply strict tracking only to the reagents that need it.

Low cost

No setup fees. The Free plan costs nothing, and paid plans are affordable for small labs.

Compared with conventional reagent management systems

Conventional systems

A shared PC and barcode reader

Many reagent management systems assume everyone shares one PC with a barcode reader. In practice, that means logging in and out every time, and putting off entries while someone else is using the PC—which leads to missed records. It is inefficient and stressful, and setting up the shared PC and barcode reader can cost thousands of dollars up front.

LabStocker

Your own smartphone

Each member scans barcodes with their own smartphone camera and saves a record immediately. No waiting and no extra data entry—reagent management becomes smooth and reliable.

Conventional systems

QR codes on every container and mandatory usage logging

Many systems require you to print and attach a QR code label to every container. That is essential when you need per-container traceability, but labeling everything is a lot of work. Some systems also require you to log the amount used every time, which adds even more work.

LabStocker

QR codes and usage logging are optional

You don't have to issue QR codes or log usage. Without QR codes, LabStocker uses the barcode the manufacturer prints on the product. You can choose how each product is managed.

Features

LabStocker gives you the inventory tools you need. Easily record when reagents are received, opened, used, and disposed of, and see stock levels and storage locations in real time.

Management modes

Choose “Total count” or “Per container” for each product.

Total count

A simple mode that tracks the total stock and the number of opened containers for a product. Just enter quantities when you receive, open, or dispose of items. No QR labels are needed, so it suits everyday reagents that do not require strict tracking.

Total count mode screen

Per container

Tracks each container individually. With a QR code on each container, you can manage its status and remaining amount. Best for expensive reagents or items that need strict control.

Per container mode screen

CSV export

Export your records as CSV files and open them directly in Excel or other spreadsheet apps.

Activity log

Export receiving, opening, usage, disposal, and inventory count records for any period. See who did what and when—useful for audits and reports.

Current inventory

Export current stock by product and remaining amounts by container, together with storage locations. Use it for inventory counts, reordering, and inventory reports.
