The problem: your instruments shouldn't limit your lab software
Every new instrument brings a new export format. Header blocks, metadata rows and inconsistent columns mean someone cleans files in a spreadsheet before results reach your system of record, or waits for a custom integration. Until then, test results sit in spreadsheets and shared drives, disconnected from the formulations they belong to.
Custom integrations take time to build and maintain, and every new instrument or firmware update can break them. Many labs end up with a backlog of instruments still handled by hand.
What this demo shows
A coatings scientist has a new tensile tester and no saved pipeline for it. They:
- Describe the export to Bodie, the Uncountable assistant, once. Bodie builds a data pipeline: a saved import for files like this one.
- Check the preview before anything is saved. The pipeline skips the header block and matches six samples to six experiments.
- Upload. Each film gets its mean, standard deviation and specimen count on the right experiment, with no spreadsheet step.
- Send the next export through the saved pipeline, with no AI step.
Built so bad data never gets in
Imports are all or nothing. If one sample name is wrong, nothing is written. Fix the name and the whole file goes in. You never end up with half a file in your experiments.
Works with the instruments you already have
ANYinstrument is equipment agnostic. If an instrument exports a CSV or Excel file, Uncountable can import it, and every later file runs the same saved logic.
Why it matters
Your instrument data should outlive the project that created it. Describing an export once means every later file from that instrument imports the same way.
Results land on the experiment next to their formulation, ready for charts and analysis, without a spreadsheet cleanup step.

New tensile tester? Meet ANYinstrument from Uncountable. Import the tester's CSV and Excel exports into your experiments. Your instrument list shouldn't decide which lab software you can buy.
Describe your file once. Bodie, the Uncountable assistant, builds a data pipeline: a saved import for files like this one.
Each upload skips the header block and gives each film its mean, standard deviation and specimen count. No spreadsheet step.
Check the preview before anything is saved. Six samples, six matching experiments. Upload, and every value goes to the right experiment.
The next export runs the saved pipeline with no AI step. Same logic every time.
One wrong sample name and nothing is written. All your data or none of it. Never half a file. Fix the name and the file goes in.
Works with the instruments you already have. If it exports a CSV or Excel file, we can import it.
ANYinstrument from Uncountable.
