Easy Access

Simple by design

Researchers can create a Lab in minutes and let everything else attach over time: a dataset to share confidentially, an asset to tokenize, a funding round, or a path to equity for their community.

Access and legitimacy at our core

We believe starting a project should be easy, and that building with collaborators should not jeopardise your pathway to a patent.

No Financial or Technical Barrier to Entry

Log in with an email address, a Google or X account, or a crypto wallet, whichever is easiest. Sign in with email, Google or X and Molecule covers the cost of creating your Lab. No crypto experience is required to take part in Labs.

A Legal Track Record

Once your Lab exists, you can add an intellectual property assignment agreement from its settings. It is signed and stored in the data room, and ensures that all IP captured within the Lab belongs to the owner of the Lab.

What do I need to create my first Lab?

All you need is a name for your Lab.

From there, you can add a description and an image, upload files, view your public project page, get an analysis of your project information and more.

Creating a lab takes one field and the Create lab button. Behind it: ownership recorded on a public ledger, the network fee paid by Molecule, a treasury that can receive funds by card or crypto, a data room for confidential files, the lab's address, and a public page anyone can check.

Start with a Lab, and watch a project grow

A lab growing since March: a data room first, then members, a TRL analysis, a token, a treasury and, this month, Coin-to-Company.

From data to ownership in one pipeline

Once your Lab exists, it carries the project through every stage of commercializing your science.

01

Capture the research

Upload data into an encrypted data room and bring in collaborators, each with the right level of access, so the work stays confidential while the team moves it forward.

02

Tokenize intellectual property

Tokenize research via the Molecule Protocol, turning research that was hard to value into something a community can fund and hold.

03

Raise funding and report progress

Open funding through tokens, while the public project page and activity feed connect the work and its data to the people backing it.

04

Turn the community into owners

When the time is right, the Coin-to-Company model gives locked token holders a compliant path to real equity in the company behind the science.

FAQ

A lab on Molecule is where a research team keeps its work. It holds the team's files, controls who can open them, keeps a dated record of every file and every change in who has access, and gives the work a public page.
