The research plan your whole team can read.

Map questions, experiments, evidence, and decisions on one shared canvas, then plan the timeline and team capacity around it. Sauriq works beside your ELN.

Access is invite-only · we follow up with a walkthrough.

Discovery canvas where assay optimization feeds a pilot reproducibility run, which feeds the go/no-go decision on advancing candidates to validation, with its three options and the discovery gate milestone above

“Where is this at?” shouldn’t need a meeting.

  1. The plan lives in someone’s head.

    Which question a run answers, and what happens after it, is known to one or two people.

  2. Status lives in a spreadsheet.

    The tracker drifts out of date the week it is made, so nobody trusts it.

  3. Decisions happen in a weekly meeting.

    The reasons behind a branch are said once, then lost before the next experiment.

The graph is the plan.

Follow the work from the incoming plasma shipper through intake, plate maps, and reader QC to the handoff decision and the date it has to meet, on the map the team already shares.

Sample Ops canvas linking the plate-preparation objective and the inbound plasma shipper to intake, plate map, and reader QC activities, then a handoff decision with its two options, with the handoff deadline above
  1. Objective

    State the question the work has to answer, with the success criteria beside it.

  2. Activity

    Plan each experiment as an activity with its protocol, tasks, and owner.

  3. Material

    Keep the samples and files each step depends on attached to it.

  4. Decision

    Write the go/no-go down before the result is in, with each option the team can take.

The method stays attached to the experiment.

Write each method once in the protocol library, then link it from the activities that use it, so whoever runs the experiment opens the method from the card.

  • Shared protocol library with an Immunoassays folder holding two ELISA protocols, the discovery screen panel open with its numbered steps

    One shared library

    Shared protocols belong to your institution, filed in folders the whole lab can open.

  • Candidate marker screen activity on the Discovery canvas, its Protocol row linking the Plasma ELISA discovery screen panel

    Linked from the activity

    Each link holds the revision it was made with, so saving a new revision does not change the method an activity already follows.

Switch the view, not the tool.

The tasks on the canvas are the same tasks in every plan view.

Table

Keep owners, priorities, dates, planned hours, and status together, with blocked work visible before you scan the rows.

Sample operations plan table with shipper intake, thaw log, and instrument QC tasks, each with its assignee, priority, status, dates, and planned hours

Kanban

See planned, in-progress, blocked, and completed work, with each task's owner and work package in sight.

Sample operations tasks arranged in planned, in progress, blocked, and done columns

Gantt

Place intake, bench, and QC tasks on dated bars and see the dependencies that decide when the next run can start.

Dated Gantt timeline of sample operations tasks with dependency links between them

Calendar

Lay the same tasks on a month grid to see which days the bench is already booked.

Month calendar of sample operations tasks, each shown on the days it is scheduled

Who is free, what changed, and where the hours went.

  • Team capacity

    Compare allocated hours and time off week by week before assigning the next run.

    Validation team allocation by member for this week and next, including a week of time off
  • Activity log

    Every canvas change and comment with who made it and when, so the reasons behind a branch stay findable.

    Activity log of comments on canvas nodes, grouped by day with time, author, and workspace
  • Logged hours by work package

    Time is logged against the plan's work packages, so the hours each phase took are one report away, ready to export as CSV for a grant or budget review.

    Time report grouping logged hours by work package, with each phase's hours, share, and last entry
