What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains for Your Lab Operations
Slash Processing Time by 30+ Hours Weekly
Slash Processing Time by 30+ Hours Weekly in Hematology and Chemistry Workflows: Technicians spend endless shifts transcribing CBC and electrolyte results from analyzers to EHRs—a recipe for burnout and errors. Our AI automates this entirely, integrating seamlessly with systems like Sysmex and Roche, freeing up staff for high-value tasks like interpreting complex diagnostics. Labs using our systems report a 45% productivity boost, translating to $50,000+ annual savings per 10-person team, based on industry benchmarks from the College of American Pathologists, with full implementation in under 90 days.
Accelerate Patient Turnaround and Boost ROI
Accelerate Patient Turnaround and Boost ROI in Molecular Diagnostics: Delays in PCR and genetic sequencing reporting can cascade into longer ER waits and frustrated oncologists. Our custom automations cut result delivery from 48 hours to under 4, improving patient satisfaction scores by 25% on average per HCAHPS surveys. With a rapid ROI—often recouping costs in 6 months through reduced overtime and error-related rework in high-volume labs—your facility becomes a revenue driver rather than a cost center, supporting 20% more daily samples without added staff.
Ironclad Compliance and Error Reduction
Ironclad HIPAA and CLIA Compliance with 99% Audit Pass Rates, Plus Error Reduction: Navigating HIPAA, FDA, and CLIA regs amid manual data handling for serology and virology tests is like threading a needle in a storm. We embed automated compliance checks into every workflow, including real-time PHI redaction in LIMS-to-EHR transfers and generating defensible audit logs for CAP inspections. Clients see error rates drop by 60% in result transcription, minimizing liability risks from fines up to $50,000 per violation and ensuring your lab's reputation remains spotless in an era of heightened Joint Commission scrutiny.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team was buried under manual data entry for SARS-CoV-2 PCR test results during flu season—easily 15 extra hours a week just verifying analyzer outputs against our LIMS. Their custom AI integration with our Roche LightCycler systems has cut that to almost nothing, and we've gone from occasional HIPAA compliance flags in quarterly audits to zero issues in our last two CAP reviews. It's transformed how we handle peak volumes, processing 30% more samples without overtime."
Dr. Elena Vasquez
Lab Director, Midwest Regional Diagnostics Center
"We were skeptical about automating blood chemistry workflows for HbA1c and lipid panels without compromising accuracy, but AIQ built a system that pulls data straight from our Beckman Coulter DxC analyzers into our Epic EHR. Turnaround time for routine panels dropped from 48 hours to under 4, and our techs now focus on patient consultations instead of data entry. ROI hit in four months, with a 40% reduction in error-related retests—solid investment for our diabetes management program."
Mark Thompson
Operations Manager, Coastal Health Laboratories
"HIPAA compliance was a nightmare with our old manual logging for NGS-based genetic testing panels. AIQ's solution automates the entire chain, from sample accessioning in Sunquest LIMS to automated variant flagging in results, saving us about 20 hours weekly and preventing what could have been costly breaches during our last OCR audit. The best part? It's fully customized to our workflow—no ongoing vendor dependencies, and we've maintained 100% compliance for six straight months."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI ensure HIPAA compliance in lab testing automation?
HIPAA compliance is non-negotiable in healthcare, and we embed it at every layer. Our custom systems use end-to-end encryption for all data in transit and at rest, with automated de-identification of PHI during processing. We conduct regular security audits aligned with NIST frameworks and provide configurable access controls based on roles—like limiting techs to result entry while pathologists review finals. For lab testing, this means secure ingestion from analyzers without exposing patient details unnecessarily. Clients like Midwest Diagnostics have passed external audits flawlessly post-implementation, reducing their compliance workload by 50%. We also include tools for generating audit-ready logs, ensuring you're always prepared for inspections without manual effort.
What types of lab tests can your automation handle?
Our solutions are built to adapt to your lab's specific testing portfolio, from routine hematology and chemistry panels to advanced molecular diagnostics like PCR for infectious diseases or NGS for genetics. We integrate directly with major analyzers—think Roche cobas for immunoassays or Illumina sequencers for genomics—automating data pull, normalization, and validation. For example, in a recent project for a mid-sized lab, we streamlined COVID-19 antigen testing workflows, cutting manual steps from 12 to 2. Whether it's high-volume urinalysis or low-volume specialty assays, we tailor the AI to your protocols, ensuring accuracy rates above 99% while handling variable sample types without custom tweaks per test.
How quickly can we see ROI from implementing AI lab automation?
Most of our healthcare clients achieve positive ROI within 3-6 months, driven by immediate time savings and error reductions. Consider a typical lab wasting 25 hours weekly on manual entry at $40/hour labor costs—that's over $50,000 annually. Our systems reclaim those hours, plus cut rework from transcription errors by 60%, per benchmarks from the American Society for Clinical Pathology. Implementation takes 4-8 weeks, including discovery and testing, with phased rollout to minimize disruption. One client, Coastal Health Labs, reported a 35% drop in overtime costs in the first quarter, fully offsetting our fees. We provide a detailed ROI projection during consultation, customized to your testing volume and staff size.
Will this automation replace our existing lab software?
No, we enhance and integrate with your current setup rather than replacing it. Our AI acts as a intelligent layer on top of your LIS or EHR, automating repetitive tasks like data transfer without disrupting established workflows. For instance, if you're using Sunquest for lab management, we build secure APIs to sync results bidirectionally, preserving your custom configurations. This avoids the pitfalls of rip-and-replace projects, which can cost labs millions in downtime. We've successfully integrated with systems like SoftPath and PowerPath in pathology settings, ensuring continuity while adding AI smarts for faster processing. Your team retains familiarity, with our solution handling the grunt work seamlessly.
How do you handle data accuracy and error prevention in automated testing?
Accuracy is paramount in lab testing, where even minor errors can impact patient care. Our AI employs machine learning models trained on your historical data to detect anomalies—like mismatched units or implausible values—in real-time, flagging them for human review before finalizing. We achieve 99.5% accuracy in validations, surpassing manual rates, through techniques like cross-referencing against reference ranges and duplicate checks. In a genetic testing rollout, we reduced false positives by 70% via pattern recognition from past assays. Post-deployment, the system self-improves with your feedback loops, and we include fallback manual overrides. This patient-centric approach not only boosts efficiency but safeguards outcomes, aligning with CLIA standards for quality assurance.
Can your AI scale for growing lab volumes without additional costs?
Absolutely—scalability is core to our architecture, designed for labs expanding from 500 to 5,000 daily tests without performance lags. We use cloud-agnostic, modular code that auto-scales resources based on demand, like during flu season surges, keeping costs predictable. Unlike subscription models that spike with usage, you own the system, so growth doesn't trigger vendor fees. A client handling oncology panels scaled 3x in volume post-implementation with zero added infrastructure, saving 25% on projected expansion costs. We stress-test against your peak scenarios during build, ensuring HIPAA-secure handling at any scale, so your lab grows efficiently without tech debt piling up.
