PetriHub is a shared page for the daily coordination of one research lab.

Who is in, what is booked, whose turn it is, what ran out. One page, for the whole lab.

PetriHub Home: pinned announcements with reactions and comments, this week's agenda, and a month calendar Member reports on personal timelines, grouped by role, with dated updates and attached links The lab's shared calendars in a month view, each calendar a different colour Project cards showing status, the people on each one, a progress bar and the next milestone The lab reading list with a featured latest paper and read receipts on the ones below it A protocol step showing its two linked reagents, the thermocycler booked for this morning, and the thermal program as a table of cycles, temperatures and times Instrument reservation board: a week of hourly bookings, colour-coded per instrument The shaker drawn as flasks in a circle, each with its medium, its owner, its countdown, and whether somebody has said they will pull it Stock list grouped by status, from out through low to stocked, with hazard marks and cabinets A cell line opened: its freezer position, its owner, its mycoplasma test date, and every passage logged with a date and a note A buffer recipe scaling each component to a target volume, with the preparation steps below

The week's agenda and today's presence sit right next to the announcements.

Open the sample lab

The sample contains ten people and one week of activity. Changes reset every hour. No account is required.

All seventeen panels are included.

No tiers, no add-ons, nothing held back for an upgrade. Every lab gets all of them.

PetriHub does not store raw data, figures or analysis. Keep those in your existing systems and use PetriHub for the schedules, records and links around them.

Right now the lab runs on a group chat and one spreadsheet.

Nobody invoices the lab for either of them. That does not make them free.

The group chat. The booking scrolled away before lunch.

The stock sheet. Three copies exist; one is current.

The bill arrives anyway. The antibody that ran out mid-experiment. Six months of culture work lost to mycoplasma nobody tested for. A freezer rack of vials nobody can identify a year after the student who froze them left.

$60 a month is cheaper than one of those.

I set up and run PetriHub for research labs.

When you want something changed, you email me and I change it.

I built PetriHub after working in research labs where experiments and files were documented, but bookings, stock and recurring duties were split across chat, whiteboards and spreadsheets. PetriHub covers that operational work.

Run protocols from a phone at the bench.

Tap Run and the protocol becomes a step-by-step card. The timer counts to a fixed finishing time, so locking the phone or switching apps loses nothing. Walk away to weigh something, come back, and every step you checked off is still checked.
