Sapio Sciences, LLC develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions.


History

Sapio Sciences was originally founded in 2004 to develop software tools to address the growing genotyping need for tools to assist in analyzing genetics data, particularly in relation to Genome Wide Association Studies. Sapio's first product was Exemplar Analytics, which ultimately incorporated over 50 different algorithms and was utilized in numerous published papers.[1][2][3][4][5] Sapio was subsequently approached by several customers to develop a LIMS solution that would provide a greater level of flexibility and configurability than traditional LIMS solutions on the market. This led to the development of Exemplar LIMS and its introduction in early 2007.[6]

Sapio introduced its Workflow Engine in 2008[7], with the goal of being able to address the electronic laboratory notebook market and eliminate paper based recording of lab process information.

Sapio subsequently added a fully configurable data model to the Examplar platform, which meant that Exemplar could now track virtually any data assuming reasonable constraints on volume.[8] This has led to Exemplar being used as a scientific data management system (SDMS), managing large volumes of targeted assay data. Statistics were also be implemented to perform detailed analysis of scientific data within the same environment.

Sapio quietly discontinued its Examplar Biomarker Discovery product sometime after November 2014.[9]

In November 2015, Sapio announced its NGS LIMS was available hosted in the cloud under the software as a service distribution model.[10] Its other solutions soon followed as being able to be hosted locally or in the cloud.

Sometime in the summer or fall of 2021, Sapio Sciences dropped the "Exemplar" name from its products and replaced it with "Sapio."[11][12]

Technology and products

The Sapio software suite encompasses laboratory information management, electronic laboratory notebook, molecular diagnostics, and data management in a single framework.[13] Since its original introduction in 2007 as "Exemplar," this suite of application has evolved into more than a LIMS solution. The general framework and adaptable nature of the Sapio suite has made it applicable to a broad spectrum of accounts, ranging from large pharmaceuticals to university R&D departments. Over the years, Sapio has also been used in highly regulated environments such as part 11, GLP, and CLIA laboratories.[14]

Features

Note: As of October 2021, Sapio laboratory informatics solutions include LIMS for research, diagnostics, next-generation sequencing, stability studies, histopathology, and bioanalysis, as well as an ELN. Due to space constraints, feature tables for some of them do not appear below. More specifically, see the vendor pages for Sapio Histopathology LIMS, Bioanalytical LIMS, and Stability LIMS for more about those specific solutions.
