Why AI LAX

One platform. Every imaging need.

From raw acquisition to published figures, AI LAX replaces scattered workflows with a single, AI-augmented layer that sits on top of your LAS X setup.

🔬

AI Enhancement

Super-resolution denoising and contrast enhancement that reveals structure without inventing it. AI LAX preserves the true facets of your specimen.

🧬

Cell & Nucleus Segmentation

AI traces cell membranes, nuclei, and organelles automatically — delivering counts, shapes, and metrics you'd otherwise annotate by hand for hours.

📥

Auto Collection

Images, metadata, and analysis pipelines are collected, labeled, and organized into versioned datasets — ready for sharing or publishing.

🔍

Anomaly Detection

AI flags artifacts, out-of-focus frames, and unexpected structures in real time so you never miss a rare event or a bad capture.

🎞️

Time-Lapse Intelligence

Track motion, division, and drift across sequences. AI builds kinetic models while preserving every original frame untouched.

🛠️

Build Anything

Need a custom classifier, a quantification script, or a publication-ready figure generator? Describe it. We build it on top of your LAS X workflow.

Platform Integrations

Runs on top of the microscopes your lab already owns

AI LAX is vendor-agnostic and read-only. It integrates with the top five life-science microscopy platforms — no new hardware, no forced file conversion, no vendor lock-in. Your LAS X, ZEN, NIS-Elements, cellSens, or Harmony workflow stays intact — AI LAX simply augments it.

ZEN · .czi

LSM 980 + Airyscan 2

Spectral confocal, multiphoton, and Airyscan super-resolution. AI LAX reads .czi natively — no forced export, no round-trip conversion.

Pain today
  • .czi locked inside ZEN — data silo'd from your analysis pipeline
  • Deconvolution & spectral unmixing are premium paid add-ons
  • Airyscan 2 + spectral stacks are enormous; no cross-lab fidelity standard
With AI LAX
  • Native .czi reader + read-only ZEN bridge — no workflow change
  • AI deconvolution & unmixing assistant with per-pixel fidelity map
  • Airyscan super-resolution upscaling — structure-guarded, zero hallucination
LAS X · .lif

STELLARIS 8

Confocal, photon-counting, spectral, and super-resolution — all inside LAS X. AI LAX plugs into the live view without another module license.

Pain today
  • LAS X bills per-user, per-module — AI Denoise gated behind premium tiers
  • Photon-counting + spectral data management is heavy and opaque
  • You want AI on LAS X, but the vendor's AI is closed and un-auditable
With AI LAX
  • LAS X-native read-only bridge — sits on top of the live acquisition
  • Open, auditable AI Denoise with a fidelity map — you see exactly what changed
  • Super-resolution & deconvolution without buying another LAS X module
NIS-Elements · .nd2

A1R+ & AX R

Point-scanning and spinning-disk (S-Delta) confocal for fast live-cell work. AI LAX reads .nd2 natively — no forced conversion.

Pain today
  • NIS-Elements scripting/API complexity for custom ROI and time-lapse acquisition
  • Spinning-disk speed vs. resolution trade-off in live-cell imaging
  • .nd2 locked in the Nikon ecosystem — hard to move elsewhere
With AI LAX
  • NIS-Elements read-only bridge for live enhancement & analysis
  • AI motion & kinetics tracking across time-lapse with per-frame fidelity
  • ND2-native read, full provenance preserved — never re-save
cellSens · .vsi

FV3000 & FV4000

Spinning-disk confocal, multiview, and light-sheet (XL). AI LAX handles the massive multiview volumes that make fusion and deconvolution painful.

Pain today
  • Multiview + light-sheet XL datasets are enormous; fusion & deconvolution are compute-heavy
  • cellSens licensing; deeper analysis pushed to costly third-party tools
  • Multi-angle registration and stitching headaches across large specimens
With AI LAX
  • AI multiview fusion & deconvolution assist — 3–4x faster on large volumes
  • Light-sheet denoising that preserves fragile fluorescence signal
  • cellSens-native read with full provenance & angle metadata intact
Harmony · HCS

Opera Phenix Plus

High-content / high-throughput screening across 96–1536-well plates. AI LAX adds phenotyping and plate-level QC on top of Harmony.

Pain today
  • Harmony costs per-assay / per-license — expensive to scale HCS assays
  • Multi-channel phenotyping across whole plates is annotation-heavy
  • Batch QC and reproducibility across plates for drug screening is manual
With AI LAX
  • Automated cell, colony, and spheroid segmentation across every well
  • Plate-level QC — auto-flag out-of-focus, saturation, edge & confluence effects
  • Batch analysis & export to LIMS with full provenance for reproducibility
CellInsight · HCS

CellInsight CX Series

High-content imaging for phenotypic screening and single-cell analysis. AI LAX reads the acquisition and adds AI-driven QC and quantification.

Pain today
  • Per-assay licensing and locked analysis workflows limit flexibility
  • Monolayer-to-spheroid transitions need unbiased, repeatable segmentation
  • Large single-cell datasets are hard to quantify at scale
With AI LAX
  • Unbiased spontaneous phenotyping & segmentation, monolayer to spheroid
  • Fast single-cell quantification across complex 3D models
  • Read-only integration — no assay re-serialization, no workflow disruption
Cross-platform pain points we solve

Same problems. Across every vendor. One AI layer.

🔓

What our partners say

"AI LAX traced 4,000 cells in the time it used to take me to count 400. And it kept every real structure — no fabricated detail."

— Principal Investigator, Novus Life Sciences

"Our imaging core cut manual annotation time by 40% in the first month. The fidelity map is a lifesaver for peer review."

— Core Director, Helix Research Core

"We found a rare mitotic event AI flagged that we would have scrolled past. That changed our whole study."

— Cell Biologist, Cellara Imaging

"For six years, AI LAX has been the backbone of our microfluidic chip imaging and 3D-printed tissue scaffolding pipeline. It counts cells in our organ-on-a-chip arrays, verifies our printed structures frame by frame, and keeps every raw capture intact — we have never had to choose between speed and fidelity. It is the most reliable imaging partner we have ever had."
