For research teams that need to show what was recorded and when, eLabFTW® is an electronic lab notebook that keeps experiments, lab inventory, and equipment bookings in one shared, searchable system. Each experiment holds rich-text notes, tables, images, checkable steps, custom metadata fields, tags, statuses, and attached files. Templates turn a protocol you repeat into a one-click starting point. A separate resource database catalogs antibodies, plasmids, cell lines, chemicals, and instruments, and typing # in an experiment links straight to any of them. Compounds import from PubChem by CID or CAS number, arriving with formulas, identifiers, and hazard data. The inventory tree maps buildings and their sub-locations, records where each container is stored, and tracks quantity and unit. Book a microscope by dragging a slot on the scheduler, and permissions decide who may reserve what. Entries can be signed with Ed25519 keys and timestamped through RFC 3161 authorities such as DFN, Digicert, and GlobalSign, or anchored on the Bloxberg blockchain; a timestamp archive can never be edited or deleted. Export to PDF, ZIP, CSV, JSON, or .eln archives, and import .eln or CSV files when moving from spreadsheets or another notebook. Users sign in locally or through SAML2 or LDAP, and an API with per-user keys lets instruments and scripts read and write entries. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
