New tool lets labs collect data from partners without accounts or spreadsheets, and ties it directly to internal workflows
KITCHENER, ON, March 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Scispot has launched Labforms, a form builder designed for life science labs that need to collect data from external partners and bring it directly into their internal systems. The product targets a common problem in lab operations: critical data still arrives through email, spreadsheets, and PDFs, which often require manual cleanup before they can be used.
Labs rely on outside inputs for orders, samples, test results, and shipments. These inputs often come in inconsistent formats, with missing fields or errors. Staff then spend hours re-entering and validating data. This slows down studies and increases the risk of mistakes. It also creates gaps in audit trails, which are important for regulated environments.
Labforms aims to replace that process with a structured entry point. Labs can create web forms with required fields such as sample ID, visit date, or shipment details. External collaborators receive a secure link and submit data without needing an account or software. The data enters Scispot in a standardized format and connects to existing records.
The product also includes controls for managing access. Labs can limit submissions to specific organizations or email domains. Each form has a unique link that can be enabled or disabled as needed. Every submission is logged with a timestamp and an identified submitter, which supports traceability and audit requirements.
Labforms includes a dashboard that shows how forms are being used. Teams can track submission volume, monitor completion times, and review individual entries. Data can be filtered by user, date, or status, and exported for reporting. The system also supports bulk workflows, such as registering multiple samples or shipments in a single session.
The tool is built for labs that work with distributed networks. This includes contract research organizations receiving study requests, diagnostic labs handling clinic orders, and biotech companies collaborating with external partners. In these settings, data often crosses organizational boundaries, which makes consistency harder to maintain.
"Most labs still depend on email and spreadsheets to collect external data," said Satya Singh, co-founder and CTO of Scispot. "That creates delays and errors. We wanted a simple way for lab partners to submit data that is complete and usable right away."
Customers use Labforms to receive orders and requests from external partners, such as CROs capturing custom study requests or diagnostic labs receiving test orders from clinic partners. The goal is to reduce manual work and ensure incoming data flows directly into operational workflows.
"From the outside, it looks like a simple form," Singh said. "Inside the lab, it becomes structured data that connects to everything else we're running."
Labforms is available as part of the Scispot platform. Existing customers can enable it in their account. New users can request access through the company's website.
