About Science & Research
Science and Research is where we gather the newly opened outfits that work close to the bench, the archive or the field notebook. Some are a two-person studio building software for lab teams. Others are a start-up renting space near a university, or a small group publishing datasets for anyone to reuse. Each one has a real address, a real team and a first-day story worth reading.
Browse the four subcategories to narrow things down, or stay on this page to see everything together. Use the filters to focus on what you need. Listings appear newest first, so the freshest openings sit at the top, and you can sort by community votes if you want to see what neighbours and peers rate. Votes can never be bought. Every product here has one main category, so what you see under a heading is what its founder says it mainly does.

Science & Research: questions answered
- What kinds of businesses belong in Science & Research?
- Products and businesses whose main job is supporting, doing or sharing scientific work. That covers lab and analysis tools, early biotech ventures, software and services for students and academics, and open datasets. If science is a side feature, another category probably suits better.
- How do I choose between the subcategories?
- Pick the one that describes who uses the product and what they do with it. Tools for running studies go in research tools, living-systems ventures in biotech, scholarly workflows in academic tools, and shared datasets in open data. Each listing gets one main category, included free.
- How do I get my business listed here?
- Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from your site, then you check and edit every field before anything goes live. Choose Science & Research or one of its subcategories as your main category.
- Can my listing appear in more than one category?
- Yes. Your main category is free, and a paid upgrade adds up to 3 more categories for $5. That helps if your work straddles, say, biotech and open data.
- What should I look for when comparing science products?
- Check what data goes in and comes out, whether you can export your work, and how the team handles support. For datasets, look for clear sourcing and licence terms. For tools, look for a founder who can explain who they built it for.
