Open-source MCP servers that let AI agents operate real lab instruments, with safety limits, read-only modes, audit trails, and a simulator for every instrument.
LabMCP: Let AI Assistants Run Your Lab Instruments
LabMCP lets an AI assistant such as Claude operate your laboratory instruments. You describe what you want in plain language, and the assistant weighs, heats, stirs, pumps, measures and logs for you. It stays inside safety limits you set, keeps a record of every command, and has a practice mode that needs no hardware.
It supports balances, hotplate stirrers, syringe pumps, spectrometers, potentiostats, lock-in amplifiers, temperature controllers, vacuum gauges, flow controllers, biosensors, clinical analyzers and more. You don't need to know how to program. Setup means installing one free helper program and pasting a few lines into your AI app's settings.

- The AI app is where you type requests, e.g. Claude Desktop. - A LabMCP connector is a small program that knows one family of instruments and its command language, so the AI never has to guess it. You add one connector per type of instrument. (Technically these are MCP servers, which is the term you'll see in the tables and docs.) - MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI apps plug into tools like these. Think of it as USB for AI. - The AI can only use the actions a connector offers, like "tare", "set temperature" or "read pH". In the docs these actions are
