Olto Discovery generates complete, publication-quality experimental protocols from your objective or hypothesis — with materials, controls, statistical guidance, and safety notes included.
Designed for every scientific discipline
Built from the ground up for how scientists actually work.
Describe your objective in plain language. Olto returns a complete experimental design — materials, reagents, controls, statistical plan, safety notes, and troubleshooting guidance. Fully editable, versioned, and exportable. Seven refinement modes let you make it cheaper, faster, more controlled, or suitable for a university teaching lab.
Unlike generic AI, the Olto assistant remembers your prior experiments, uploaded papers, datasets, and preferences across every conversation. Ask it to interpret results, recommend next steps, critique your controls, or generate a draft methods section — all with full context from your research history.
Seven step types including Decision Gates, Parallel Blocks, Safety Checks, and Measurements. Per-step duration, temperature, equipment, expected outputs, and branching logic. Test run mode for live protocol execution. AI simulation analyzes risk flags, estimates cost and duration, and provides step-level optimization suggestions.
Shared workspaces, real-time protocol commenting, approval workflows, and unified AI memory across your entire team. Built for how research labs actually work — with proper permissions, audit trails, and the ability to have a PI review and approve a protocol before it goes to the bench.
From academia to biotech, researchers across every discipline are using Olto to move faster without cutting corners.
“We were spending two to three weeks designing each new experimental arm for our KRAS inhibitor screen. Olto compressed that to an afternoon. The statistical planning alone — power calculations, the multiple comparison corrections — used to require a dedicated biostatistics consultation. Now it's built into every protocol we generate.”
“As a postdoc, I was constantly worried about missing controls or designing experiments that wouldn't hold up in peer review. Olto catches things I'd miss at midnight — isotype controls, housekeeping genes, the right normalization strategy. My PI noticed the protocols looked more rigorous before I even told him I was using it.”
“We run a tight lab with high throughput. I needed something that could keep pace — generate 20 protocol variants in a day, track which ones we've run, and remember that we prefer confocal over widefield for this cell line. The AI assistant actually learns our preferences over time. It feels like a very well-read lab manager.”
“The manual protocol designer is what sold us. We have proprietary cell-based assays that no AI can know about — but I can build them step-by-step, flag the critical steps, run the simulation, and have a QC-reviewed protocol document ready for our regulatory team. It replaced a LIMS workflow we were paying six figures for.”
Doctors and researchers handle sensitive IP and patient-adjacent data. Olto is built with institutional security requirements as a baseline, not an afterthought.
