Biotech & Lab Compliance

Make your next audit a trivial step so your real northstar can be discovering a breakthrough drug

Matobas captures every physical step as it happens — so compliance and repeatability become a byproduct of the work, not a second job.

The Problem

Lab work runs on precision, but the paperwork meant to prove it has become the work. Between “four-eyes” sign-offs and QA repeatability mandates, your scientists spend more than half their time documenting manual steps instead of running them. The people you hired to do science are spending their afternoons transcribing what they did in the morning. In fact, you might have many associate scientists in your lab whose ONLY job is to document changes and lab experiments.

And after all that effort, the thing the paperwork exists to guarantee — repeatability — still slips away. Runs fail to reproduce because the subtle physical details (the exact angle, the exact timing, the small mid-procedure correction) were never written down. The report says one thing; the bench did another.

How Matobas Works

Matobas observes the procedure through hardware that stays out of your team’s way, then turns what it sees into a verified record — without anyone stopping to type.

• Capture, hands-free. Wearable glasses (55g, 8-hour battery, ultra-wide view), audio pendants, and modular camera mounts record the procedure across video and audio. Your scientist keeps their gloves on and their focus unbroken.
• Draft, then confirm. The AI watches the step and drafts a structured record of what happened. Because AI can be wrong, nothing is saved until the technician taps to confirm — “Run step 4 held at 60°C for 90s?” The human stays the final authority on the record.
• Lock it in. Confirmed steps are saved to a time-stamped record that can’t be altered after the fact, building a continuous, ordered history of exactly how each run was performed.
• Keep it private. Raw feeds are never auto-saved to the cloud, and faces are blurred on-device — by default — before any data leaves the room.

What Changes

Your team documents nothing by hand, your audit trail is always complete and in order, and your runs become far more reproducible because the real physical process — not a tidied-up summary — is what gets captured. The compliance burden moves off your scientists and into the environment around them.

Perhaps the most vital shift is internal: your newer scientists no longer train to be proficient scribes or master the art of the journal. With the administrative tax removed, their professional identity centers entirely on breakthrough discovery and tangible scientific output.

Common Questions

Q: Is recording the lab a privacy or IP risk?
Raw video never auto-uploads to the cloud, and faces are blurred on-device before anything is shared. You hold the ground truth; you control what leaves the room.

Q: Does this satisfy a four-eyes review?
The human confirmation step is built in — every recorded action is reviewed and approved by a person before it becomes part of the record.
