CloudLIMS is a web-based, software-as-a-service laboratory information management system from CloudLIMS.com. It is built for biorepositories, clinical diagnostic labs, clinical research organizations and analytical testing labs, and the company publishes separate pages for industries such as cannabis, food and beverage, environmental, water, mining, oil and gas, toxicology and veterinary testing.
The vendor positions it as an AI-native LIMS and says it holds SOC 2 Type II compliance and ISO 9001:2015 certification. It is sold by subscription with no upfront cost, and a set of services, including configuration, data migration and support, is bundled into the price.
CloudLIMS runs in the cloud, so users reach it through a browser with an internet connection. A customer subscribes, and the CloudLIMS team configures workflows to mirror the lab's processes, sets up CoA and test report templates, connects instruments and migrates existing data from older systems.
Day to day, staff register subjects and samples, assign barcodes, record storage locations, run tests and generate reports. The vendor says its AI layer continuously analyzes samples, tests, instruments, reagents and staffing to flag anomalies, forecast demand and answer questions asked in plain language.
Core capabilities include sample management with complete traceability, storage location management, barcode scanning and label printing, a full audit trail, validated electronic signatures, role-based access and customized reporting. Support for Ziath plate scanners and BioTillion Boxmapper helps biobanks that rely on 2D barcoded storage.
Enterprise adds workflow and study management, billing, lab inventory, kits, document management, instrument calibration and maintenance, a training module, and patient and client portals. The AI features cover anomaly detection, demand forecasting, natural-language questions and suggested actions such as reordering supplies or scheduling maintenance.
