SamLab AI · Pro plans & above

AI explains it. Your pathologist approves it.

SamLab AI does three things for your lab: explains results to patients in plain language, finds anything in your data when you just describe it, and reads a doctor's prescription straight into a bill. Nothing clinical is ever AI-generated, and nothing prints until your pathologist signs off.

  • An end-of-report summary plus optional per-test notes — “what does low haemoglobin mean?” answered right on the report.

What is SamLab?

SamLab is offline-first laboratory management software for diagnostic and pathology laboratories. Registration, billing, sample tracking, result entry and report printing all keep working with no internet connection, then synchronise when the connection returns. It covers patients, tests, analyzer integration, referring doctors, accounts and management reporting in one desktop application.

Report Designer

The report is what your lab is judged on

20 ready-made designs, and every one carries your identity — letterhead, logo, signature, accent colour and printed language. Set it once and every report the lab prints follows, then reaches the patient by e-mail or WhatsApp from the lab’s own account.

Any accent colourColour or black & whiteYour letterhead & signaturePrinted in your language

Real PDFs, watermarked as samples. Open one on your own printer.

From analyzer to patient

A result travels from the machine to the patient’s phone without anyone retyping it.

This is the path every result takes in SamLab: the analyzer emits it, Result Entry catches it, the pathologist approves it, WhatsApp delivers it.

Step 1

Connect the analyzer

Serial port or network. Pick the model from the list — 330+ are on it.

Step 2

Results arrive by themselves

Each result lands in Result Entry against the right sample, matched by its barcode. Nobody retypes a value.

Step 3

Your pathologist approves

One click verifies and signs. The report prints on your letterhead, ISO 15189-ready.

Step 4

The patient has it on WhatsApp

A link from the lab’s own WhatsApp, or the PDF from its own Gmail, on every plan. Automatic WhatsApp Business delivery with the PDF attached: Pro and above.

Analyzer integration

330+ analyzer models from 36 manufacturers connect to SamLab

Serial and network. Results land in Result Entry against the right sample by barcode — from the machines below and the ones they resemble.

Comparison

Cloud software stops when the line drops. Offline software stops at one PC. SamLab is neither.

A local database that keeps every screen working through an outage, and a cloud copy the moment the connection is back. Here is what that means row by row.

Offline-first

The internet goes. Billing doesn’t.

Watch the connection drop mid-morning. Four bills are saved locally while it is down, and every one of them syncs the moment it is back.

Every screen works offline

Billing, patients, results, reports, barcodes — the database is on the lab’s own PC, so nothing waits for the network.

Sync catches up on its own

Bills saved during an outage queue up and send themselves the moment the connection returns. Nobody re-enters anything.

30 days of grace, then still your data

The licence keeps working for 30 days without any connection at all. Your data never left your PC to begin with — the cloud copy is a backup, not the master.

Seen enough? Install it on one PC and try the whole lab for 7 days — no card.
