Private AI for Android and iPhone research teams
Aspis Bio
A phone-first lab workspace for Android and iPhone that helps researchers use AI privately while they work: ask scientific questions, check bench math, summarize Lab Book context, and move selected results into Dropbox or Labguru without exposing provider keys in the app.
Prompt context is created server-side from the active screen, task, and visible workflow.
Designed for quick work on a phone, not a desktop system squeezed into a mobile view.
The idea
AI help where researchers actually stand
Researchers often need small, high-friction answers while they are away from a desktop: dilution checks, qPCR setup review, note cleanup, RNA-seq reminders, export summaries, or a quick sanity check before moving to the next bench step. Aspis Bio makes that assistance available from Android and iPhone while keeping the provider boundary outside the app.
Private by architecture
AI keys, Labguru tokens, and gateway configuration stay server-side behind Cloudflare Workers.
Mobile, not miniature desktop
The app is shaped around fast phone interactions: ask, calculate, record, export, continue.
Explicit export boundaries
Dropbox and Labguru actions are intentional connector flows, not silent background uploads.
Workspace
A practical lab companion
Ask AI
Screen-aware chat for biology, chemistry, calculations, protocol context, and longer research questions.
Lab Book
Local-first notes, tags, attachments metadata, and explicit export actions when the user chooses them.
Bench tools
qPCR planning, dilution checks, NanoDrop-oriented workflows, and quick review surfaces.
Model organism routines
Focused support for fly and worm RNA-seq workflows, summaries, and next-step checks.
Privacy model
The phone never carries provider secrets
Aspis Bio uses Cloudflare Workers as the boundary for AI and server-side integrations. The app sends compact task context, receives streamed answers, and keeps third-party secrets out of the Android and iPhone app bundle.
Connectors
Integrations are opt-in workflow tools
Aspis Bio connectors are designed for researcher-controlled movement of lab context. Dropbox is for app-folder backup and export. Labguru is for selected Lab Book notes and manifests. Local attachment bytes are not sent unless a specific export flow includes them.
Dropbox
Back up Lab Book manifests and notes, or export selected analysis manifests to the Aspis Bio app folder.
Connector detailsLabguru
Create or attach experiment notes from sanitized Lab Book content through the Aspis Bio API worker.
