Benchling
Cloud R&D platform combining an electronic lab notebook with molecular biology sequence design and data management.
Benchling positions itself less as a pure analysis tool and more as the operating system for a biotech R&D team's day-to-day work: an electronic lab notebook (ELN), a sequence editor for cloning and CRISPR design, a registry that tracks samples and constructs with full lineage, and inventory management, all in one connected system rather than separate spreadsheets and desktop tools. Analytics dashboards sit on top to give R&D leadership visibility into experiment throughput and results. It's used heavily by biotech and pharma companies scaling past the point where notebooks and file shares work, and it integrates with lab instruments and downstream bioinformatics pipelines. Pricing is entirely quote-based and customized per organization; Benchling does not publish tiers or prices.
