Each one solves a real bench problem.
Born from years of analysing data at the bench, and rebuilt one by one. They share one login, one interface and one set of design principles. Open any of them to see what it does.

Why you can trust the numbers.
These tools compute values that end up in papers. So the question is not whether the interface is pleasant, but whether the number it prints is the right one. Here is what they are built on, what each result is checked against, and where we stop short.
What it runs on
The engines, the libraries behind them, and what each result is compared against: edgeR's own normalisation, Scanpy's own components, DESeq2's own tables. Matched to the ninth decimal before a release goes out.
See the inventory →Methods & references
What each tool actually computes, named: the models, the tests, the corrections, the transforms, each with the paper it comes from.
See the list →How to cite
If a figure in your paper came out of one of these tools, here is the line to put in the methods section, with the version and the date.

Atlascope is in closed beta. Accounts are switched on by hand, which is slower than a button but means a person reads every request.
Create your account
Name, email, password, and the request for access goes with it. One account opens all nine tools: there is nothing else to ask for later.
We switch you on
Usually within a day. You get an email the moment it is done, and the tools are then simply there when you sign in.
Open the file you already have
The plate reader export, the FCS files, the Ct table, the sheet pasted from Excel. No format to convert first, and nothing to install.
Questions, before or after.
Get in touch
Found a bug, need access, or have an idea for a feature? Write to us. It reaches a person, and they answer.
Email supportDo I need to install anything?
No. Open a link and you are in: no R, no Python, no licence, no command line, and no server to wake up before the first click.
Can I use it on the computer next to the instrument?
Yes, that is what it is for. It runs in the browser that is already on that machine, and nothing is installed on it.
Where do my files go?
Almost everywhere: nowhere. The rebuilt tools read the file you open straight from your own disk and save back to it. Two tools send data while they compute, because the statistics run in R on our side, and the file is deleted as soon as the job finishes.
Are the numbers checked against anything?
Yes. Every engine is compared to the implementation the field already uses, on reference values produced by running it: edgeR, DESeq2, limma, Scanpy, minpack.lm. The comparison is re-run before every release, at a tolerance of one part in a billion.
Can I cite it in a paper?
Yes, and please do, with the version number, which changes often. The line to copy is here.
Can I save my work?
The tools that produce an analysis ask where it should go: a file on your own computer, or your Atlascope account so you can reopen it from another machine. You choose each time, and the file is yours to keep either way.
Mirage is the exception, because there is no analysis to save: it keeps the board you are assembling in your own browser.
