Anaco is building Tinylab, the world’s smallest and most affordable fully-automated analytical laboratory.

Market Opportunity:

Tens of thousands of businesses across agriculture, food & drink, biomanufacturing, chemicals, and energy are currently forced to choose between outsourcing internal QC to 3rd party analytical laboratories, that charge hundreds per sample and take days to send results, or spending hundreds of thousands setting up an in-house lab. Tinylab is an easy-to-use, affordable device that performs the same critical functions as those labs, but can operate directly inside any facility, unlocking a $80B market.

Technology:

We take standard lab instruments, redesign their components to be fabricated on wafers, and integrate the chip versions together to automate the 4 “steps” of analytical chemistry (Sample Prep, Separation, Measurement, Data Analysis) so anyone, anywhere, on any budget can perform chemical testing. With the field data collected by Tinylab, anyone can create digital twins to simulate their processes just like manufacturers do with robots, reducing expenses, increasing yields, and enhancing quality.

Advantages:

Cost effective
Easy to operate
Results in minutes, not days
Widely applicable for multiple analytes
Highly customizable and scalable design

Development Stage:

Prototype

IP Protection:

Pending Provisional Patent (1): Application # 63/911,290 INTEGRATED DEVICE FOR AUTOMATED MULTI-COMPONENT CHEMICAL ANALYSIS WITH PARALLEL SEPARATION AND SPECTRОРНОТОMETRIC DETECTION
