About Benchling

Benchling is the R&D Cloud for life sciences, providing an integrated platform that replaces legacy electronic lab notebooks (ELN) and laboratory information management systems (LIMS). The platform serves biotech, pharmaceutical, and academic research organizations with seven integrated applications for scientific research and development.

The Notebook application provides a modern electronic lab notebook for documenting experiments with rich text, tables, and embedded molecular biology tools. The Molecular Biology suite includes sequence editors, alignment tools, and primer design capabilities that enable researchers to plan and analyze experiments within the same platform where they document their work.

Benchling Registry and Inventory provide a structured system for registering and tracking biological entities, chemical compounds, and physical samples across an organization. Workflows enable teams to automate multi-step experimental processes, while Studies provides tools for designing and analyzing structured experiments.

The platform's Insight module provides analytics and reporting across all R&D data, enabling organizations to identify trends, track progress, and make data-driven decisions. Benchling integrates with laboratory instruments, data analysis tools, and ERP systems. The platform is validated for GxP compliance and supports 21 CFR Part 11 electronic signatures.
