The full QC workflow.
Zero bloat.
Everything a QC lab needs to track samples, batch QC, import from instruments, flag issues, and release reports — with an AI assistant and a complete audit trail, without the complexity of an enterprise system.
Start free trialSample Intake, Status & Chain of Custody
Register samples quickly and track them from receipt through release. Every sample gets an auto-generated tracking ID, and chain-of-custody records tie samples to transfer and receipt events.
- Auto-generated sample IDs with configurable prefixes
- Barcode label generation for physical tracking
- Status tracking across the full sample lifecycle
- Chain-of-custody records for transfers and receipts
- Filter and search by status, material type, date, or client
- CSV import for batch sample registration
Results Entry
Enter test results manually or upload them via CSV. Support for multiple outputs per test, with spec limits applied automatically so you see pass/fail status immediately.
- Manual data entry with per-test input forms
- CSV upload for bulk results from instruments
- Multi-output support (e.g., multiple readings per test)
- Automatic spec limit comparison on entry
- Support for numeric, text, and pass/fail result types
QC Flags & Out-of-Spec Detection
When a result falls outside its defined spec limits, the system flags it automatically. Out-of-spec values appear on the dashboard and in sample views so they're never overlooked.
- Automatic out-of-spec detection based on configurable limits
- Visual flags on samples, results, and dashboard
- Dashboard alerts showing current OOS count
- Per-test spec ranges (min, max, target) configurable by material
- OOS samples highlighted in sample lists and reports

QC Batching & Control Limits
Run analytical batches with QC criteria snapshotted onto each batch at build time, so later library edits never change an already-evaluated batch. Batches auto-evaluate against recovery and RPD limits and gate release.
- Build QC batches with method-scoped acceptance criteria
- Recovery and RPD (relative percent difference) control limits
- Criteria snapshotted at build — evaluated batches stay stable
- Automatic QC evaluation flags the most-severe covering batch
- Failed QC blocks validation, reporting, and release until resolved
Instrument & CSV Import with AI-Assisted Mapping
Bring results in from instrument exports and spreadsheets. An AI assistant suggests how to map your columns to Aliquora's fields, so structured imports take minutes instead of manual re-keying.
- CSV / instrument file import for bulk results
- AI-assisted column mapping suggestions
- Automatic analysis of import files before committing
- Spec limits applied automatically on imported values
- Idempotent imports that won't silently duplicate data
EDD Export & Regulatory Reporting
Generate electronic data deliverables for regulatory submissions. Export to common environmental formats or a generic structured file alongside PDF and CSV reports.
- Electronic data deliverable (EDD) export
- EQuIS, GeoTracker, and generic structured formats
- PDF and CSV report export
- Results tied back to their QC batch for defensibility
Holding-Time Tracking (EPA Part 136)
Track analytical holding times from collection and receipt, with alerts as deadlines approach or expire — so time-sensitive analyses don't lapse unnoticed.
- Holding-time clocks anchored to collection and receipt
- EPA Part 136 holding-time support
- Approaching and expired holding-time alerts
- Per-analysis tracking, deduped so you're not spammed
Review, Approval & E-Signatures
Route completed results through configurable review and approval steps. Approvers confirm with an e-signature, creating a clear, attributable record of who approved what and when.
- Configurable approval steps (e.g., review then approve)
- Electronic signatures with optional password re-confirmation
- Role-based permissions (technician, reviewer, approver)
- Approval history logged with timestamps and user identity
- Reject and return to a previous stage with comments
COA / Report Generation
Generate Certificates of Analysis as PDF documents. Reports include lab branding, sample details, test results with pass/fail status, and approval signatures.
- PDF export for Certificates of Analysis
- Customizable report templates with lab branding
- Include sample info, test results, specs, and pass/fail
- Approval signatures and dates on generated reports
- Download or share reports directly with clients
AI Lab Assistant & Configure by Chat
Ask questions about your data in plain English instead of building filters — and let admins describe configuration changes in plain language. Every AI-proposed change is previewed and re-validated server-side before anything is applied.
- Ask your data: "show out-of-spec results from last week"
- Action mode that proposes changes for your approval
- Configure by chat — describe a config change in plain English
- Before/after preview with server-side re-validation on apply
- AI-assisted document scanning and result analysis
Audit Log, Roles & Client Portal
An append-only audit log records key actions with who, what, and when. Role-based access keeps data scoped to the right people, and a client portal lets you share results without email attachments.
- Append-only audit log of creates, edits, approvals, and deletes
- Filterable by user, action type, and date range; CSV export
- Role-based access control across the organization
- Multi-tenant data isolation per organization
- Client portal for sharing results securely
