Sample management that grows with your operations.
Start with structured inventory. Add fulfillment, dynamic computation and automation when you need them.
Xavo combines sample management and request fulfillment in one platform. Use it for straightforward inventory and storage, or for requests where sources, volumes and routes have to be worked out each time.
Available in three editions on one platform: Core, Professional and Enterprise.

What Xavo handles.
Know your samples
Keep inventory, locations and sample history accurate and up to date.
Capture the full request
Requests are stored as structured data that Xavo can calculate with, not as free-text tickets.
Work out how to fulfill it
Xavo checks current stock against your operating rules and decides how the request will be fulfilled.
Produce what operators and robots need
Xavo generates the files and instructions for each operator and each device.
Assign work to equipment
Xavo matches each step to the equipment and automation available in your lab.
Recalculate when things change
When material runs short, a device goes down or priorities shift, Xavo recalculates the affected steps within your rules.
Choose the edition that fits your lab.
Start with Core and add Professional or Enterprise capabilities when you need them.
Inventory, storage and traceability
A reliable record of every sample: where it is stored and what has happened to it.
- Sample inventory
- Storage and locations
- Sample state
- Sample history
- Traceability and audit trail
- Basic request handling
- Multi-site inventory & shipment tracking
Labs whose main problem is finding and tracking material.
Turn requests into prepared samples
Xavo selects the source containers and calculates transfers, dilutions and plate layouts for each request.
- Order and request management
- Source container selection
- Transfer calculation
- Dilution planning
- Plate preparation
- Intermediate containers
- Business rules
- Fulfillment traceability
- Path Finder
- Multi-site inventory & shipment tracking
Labs where fulfilling a request means more than pulling material from storage.
Run variable, automation-heavy operations at scale
Xavo works out the execution path for each request across your equipment and automation, and adjusts it when conditions change.
- Path Finder (dynamic deliverable computation)
- Advanced equipment models
- Resource-aware routing
- Automation integration
- Dynamic recalculation
- Advanced business rules
- Enterprise-scale integrations
- Scheduling and optimization (in development)
- Multi-site inventory & shipment tracking
High-throughput labs where several automated systems work on the same requests.
Operating across several sites, CROs or storage partners? The multi-site add-on with shipment tracking is available from Core upwards.

We can map your current workflow against the three editions.
Talk through your process →Three technologies behind Xavo.
Path Finder calculates the work, Xavo Scheduling plans it and Lab Spider connects Xavo to the systems you already run.
Calculate what needs to happen
Path Finder takes the requested deliverable, what is in stock, what your equipment can do and your operating rules, and works out the steps needed to produce it.
- Suitable source containers
- Required transformations
- Transfers and dilutions
- Intermediate plates
- Valid execution routes
- Required resources
Included in Enterprise as a core component. Also available standalone, including with sample data from your existing laboratory systems.
Plan what runs where, and when
Xavo Scheduling uses predicted runtimes, equipment availability and your constraints to plan work across the lab.
- Runtime prediction
- Resource allocation
- Capacity planning
- Queue optimization
- Multi-project scheduling
- Schedule recalculation
- Learning from execution history
Developed in a research project together with Goethe University Frankfurt, funded under the ZIM program.

Connect Xavo to the laboratory around it
Lab Spider passes sample data, instructions and execution status between Xavo and the systems already in your lab.
- LIMS and ELN
- Sample management platforms
- Databases
- Automated stores
- Liquid handlers
- Automation software
- Laboratory instruments
How a request moves through Xavo.
You can run every component together, or deploy only the ones you need alongside your existing systems.
Use Xavo as your platform, or add it to the systems you already run.
Run sample management on Xavo
Use Xavo as the system of record for inventory, requests and fulfillment.
Explore the editions →Add Xavo to your existing LIMS
Keep the LIMS or sample platform that holds your inventory today. Add Path Finder, Scheduling or Lab Spider where you need calculation, planning or connectivity.
Talk about your architecture →In each project we agree which system holds the master record and which system writes data back.
Results from customer implementations.
more throughput per FTE
less manual picking effort
faster liquid handling execution (best case)
fewer transcription errors
Figures from individual customer implementations. Results depend on your environment and use case.
Xavo resolves the variation. LabOperator defines the procedure.
Xavo handles sample requests and the material decisions behind them.
LabOperator runs configured scientific procedures, connects instruments and guides execution in the lab.
