In a world where microbial analysis is becoming faster and more complex, simply counting colonies is no longer enough. What truly matters is knowing what you're counting. Our AI-powered colony counter does exactly that — it distinguishes between bacterial colonies as if a skilled microbiologist were working full-time inside the machine. And to be honest — it's often even more consistent.
Our AI is trained not just to count colonies, but to actively classify them. That means recognition based on:
• colour – from milky white to deep red, even subtle shades are detected
• shape and structure – smooth, jagged, concentric, irregular
• surface and gloss – matte vs glossy, wet vs dry
• growth pattern – spread out, clustered or overlapping
Even when multiple colony types grow on the same plate, the system identifies each type individually.
Once trained, our AI immediately assigns colonies to categories such as:
• target organisms vs contaminants
• resistant strains vs wild type
• large vs small colonies (e.g. in growth or stress studies)
• known vs unknown patterns (for further investigation)
This classification can be directly linked to analysis tools or LIMS systems. So you don’t just get a complete picture — you gain instant insight into what’s growing.
• in food safety: quickly identify unwanted flora among normal bacteria
• in pharma: detect abnormal colonies in production environments
• in clinical research: efficiently screen for mixed infections
• in R&D: track subpopulations in selection experiments
Our AI transforms how you look at petri dishes. It doesn’t just count — it understands what it sees. That leads to faster decisions, greater reliability and above all: less guesswork.
