Data provenance

A dated history for every file

Labs stores each upload as a dated version with its own content hash, so you can show what your data looked like at any point.

  1. A fingerprint on every file

    Each upload gets a version, a date and a content hash.

  2. Every version kept

    Earlier versions stay in the Lab, each with its date and the person or agent who uploaded it.

  3. A public record for funders

    The Lab's public page lists what was added and when, so a funder can follow progress without opening confidential files.

  4. Access changes on the timeline

    Whenever someone's role changes, the change is dated on the Lab's timeline next to the files.

AI agents

Give AI agents access on your terms

An agent joins a Lab as a member with its own role and an end date, and the record shows which results it produced.

  • Agents as Lab members

    Add an agent as a member with a contributor or viewer role, marked as an agent.

  • Agent work is labelled

    The member list and the record mark agents apart from people, so a reviewer can see which results came from an agent.

  • Connect your own pipelines

    With API credentials you create in the app, your code and agents can read a Lab's files, members and activity and write results back.

Funders and reviewers

Share the work with funders and reviewers

You decide how long a funder or reviewer can see the Lab, and MIRA's readiness score gives them an early sense of where the project stands.

  • Access with an end date

    Give a funder or reviewer access for 7, 30 or 90 days or until a date you pick, and revoke it at any time.

  • Encrypted confidential files

    Confidential files are encrypted before they reach Molecule's servers, and access is checked each time someone opens one.

  • A readiness score from MIRA

    MIRA rates the project's Technology Readiness Level from its public material and suggests what to strengthen next, updating as new work comes in.

  • Funds held in the Lab

    Anyone in the lab can add money by card; only the admin pays out.
