eCAT is finished and will be released on July 8th!

eCAT is a browser-based electronic lab notebook (ELN or OLN) that lets scientists record experiments and manage data over the web.

Why eCAT?

We developed eCAT because feedback from many sources - customers, visitors to our website, and discussions in science blogs - points to the pressing need for a powerful but affordable online OLN that is tailored to the real needs and working practices of scientists.

Commercial version of eCAT

We have received lots of useful feedback about eCAT from testers since the launch of the beta in September 2008. Beta testing will continue through May, and the first commercial version of eCAT will be released in June 2009.
