Semaphore Solutions Revolutionizes Laboratory Management with New AI-Powered Co-Pilot

In an exciting development for laboratory informatics, Semaphore Solutions has unveiled their latest innovation: an AI-powered workflow configuration co-pilot for Labbit, showcased at the BioIT 2025 expo in Victoria, British Columbia. This groundbreaking tool marks a significant leap forward in Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) technology, allowing laboratories to quickly build and adapt their workflows with unprecedented ease.

The AI co-pilot is designed to dismantle existing barriers to self-configuration, pushing the boundaries of digital transformation in labs. As laboratories increasingly face the need to evolve and adapt, this innovative solution ensures that they can keep pace with scientific advancements without the hindrance of complex configuration processes. Attendees at BioIT 2025 were invited to visit booth 725 to witness the launch firsthand.

Semaphore Solutions had previously shared Labbit's ambitious vision aimed at expediting workflow deployments while harnessing artificial intelligence to enhance laboratory operations. With the launch of the configuration co-pilot, this vision has become a reality. Notably, Labbit distinguishes itself in the marketplace as the first LIMS boasting an AI-enabled visual workflow builder. Unlike other offerings that generate code in the background, Labbit’s co-pilot interacts with users at the configuration layer, creating a collaborative experience that simplifies workflow design and modification.

At the heart of the co-pilot's capabilities lies a powerful integration of Labbit's Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) workflow engine paired with a sophisticated AI assistant. Users can engage with the assistant through conversational input to explain their lab processes, or they can directly upload relevant documents, such as vendor protocols or existing BPMN diagrams. The co-pilot promptly generates a visual representation of their workflows, serving as a robust starting point for further customization.

Once the initial workflow is established, the co-pilot takes on the dual roles of guide and builder. It translates natural language inputs into fully configured workflows, incorporating intricate elements such as user interfaces, business logic, and calculation setups. This intelligent assistant adeptly interprets users’ intentions, automating complex setup processes and significantly reducing implementation timelines.

As laboratories continue to expand and adapt, the co-pilot allows for swift, iterative changes without the necessity for specialized configuration skills or expensive vendor support. Semaphore’s CEO, Peter Smith, emphasizes the transformative impact of this technology, stating, "Labbit's AI-powered configuration co-pilot represents a pivotal advancement in laboratory informatics. By streamlining the workflow configuration process, we are alleviating one of the most significant challenges labs face in the adoption and evolution of their systems. This innovation empowers labs to instantly adapt, creatively innovate, and concentrate on what is fundamentally important—propelling scientific discovery."

With this pioneering initiative, Labbit is charting a new course for the future of LIMS, promising enhanced efficiency, greater user autonomy, and unparalleled configurability to laboratories around the world. Visitors at BioIT 2025 can immerse themselves in this next-generation lab automation experience by exploring the configuration co-pilot in action at booth 725.
