LabArchives is a line of cloud-based electronic lab notebooks (ELNs) sold by LabArchives, LLC, which was founded in 2009 by Earl B. Beutler and Kirk Schneider.[1]

LabArchives partnered with BioMed Central in 2012 to store and identify datasets that support peer-reviewed publications.[2] Datasets can be assigned digital object identifiers (DOI) to create a permanent link between the scientific article and the datasets that support it.[3]

LabArchives collaborated with many educational institutions to pilot and study the particular needs of this community. Instructors in a bioengineering course at the University of Wisconsin-Madison published results of a pilot effort using the software to teach the course in 2014,[4] and Yale published a report of adopting it for research labs in 2014.[5] Several studies were also presented at the 2014 Biennial Conference on Chemical Education.[6]

Since 2014, LabArchives has been an Internet2 approved ELN.[7]

LabArchives also offers a laboratory inventory program[8] as well as scheduling software for management of resources[9]

LabArchives was acquired by Insightful Science (now Dotmatics) in 2021[10]
