Semaphore Solutions Unveils Labbit's AI-Powered Workflow Configuration Co-Pilot at BioIT

VICTORIA, BC, March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Semaphore Solutions, the creator of Labbit and a leader in laboratory informatics, is thrilled to announce a groundbreaking advancement in LIMS technology with its AI-powered workflow configuration co-pilot. The first of its kind, this tool enables labs to build and adapt workflows faster than ever—eliminating barriers to self-configuration and accelerating digital transformation. Attendees at BioIT 2025 can experience this innovation firsthand at booth 725.

Last month, Semaphore shared Labbit's bold new vision: to further remove obstacles to change, speed up workflow deployment, and harness AI to empower labs. The introduction of the configuration co-pilot brings that vision to life, setting Labbit apart as the first LIMS to offer an AI-powered visual workflow builder. While other AI-driven workflow building solutions generate underlying code, Labbit's co-pilot operates at the configuration layer like an expert user, delivering a collaborative experience that simplifies workflow creation and modification.

At the core of this innovation, is the powerful synergy of Labbit's Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) workflow engine and an AI assistant. Users can either have a conversation with the assistant to describe their lab process, or upload vendor protocol definition documents, user requirements, files, images, or existing BPMN diagrams, instantly generating a visual representation of their lab's workflows.

From this starting point, the configuration co-pilot serves as both a guide and a builder, transforming natural language input into fully configured workflows, including user interface, business logic, and calculations. It intelligently interprets user intent, automates complex setup tasks, and reduces implementation timelines.

As labs grow and evolve, the co-pilot enables fast, iterative changes without requiring specialized configuration expertise or costly vendor support.

Peter Smith, CEO of Semaphore Solutions, highlights the significance of this innovation:
 "Labbit's AI-powered configuration co-pilot is a game-changer for laboratory informatics. By making workflow configuration faster, smarter, and more intuitive, we're removing one of the biggest pain points labs face when implementing and evolving their systems. This is about giving labs the power to adapt instantly, innovate freely, and focus on what really matters—advancing scientific discovery."

With this latest breakthrough, Labbit is defining the future of LIMS—bringing AI-driven efficiency, user-driven control, and unmatched configurability to labs worldwide. Visit booth 725 at BioIT to see the configuration co-pilot in action and experience the next generation of lab automation.
