QC analysts shouldn't be transcribing data by hand
ChromaParse exists because the most highly-trained chemists in pharma spend hours each week typing numbers from PDFs into spreadsheets. We're here to give that time back.
Why we built ChromaParse
Hours wasted weekly
An 83-page Empower report takes 90+ minutes of careful typing. Multiply across a QC team and that's a full FTE.
Manual entry has errors
Even careful chemists transpose digits 1 in 1000 entries. In a regulated environment that's an audit finding waiting to happen.
Data trapped in PDFs
LIMS and ELN systems can't ingest PDF — so the audit trail breaks the moment a number leaves the chromatograph workstation.
Compliance gaps
Without source-trace, an auditor asking "prove this Excel cell came from this PDF" gets a shrug.
What we believe
Accuracy first
An extraction at 95% accuracy is worse than no tool at all — the wrong numbers are dangerous. We measure, validate, and refuse to ship templates we can't verify.
Compliance is structural
Audit trail isn't a feature — it's the foundation. Every action is logged, every value is traceable, every file is hashed.
Data sovereignty
Your data is yours. SaaS users can opt out of model training; on-premise customers see no data leave the network.
Pragmatic over perfect
We ship narrow solutions that work today rather than wide solutions that might work tomorrow.
Who we are
A small team of QC chemists, software engineers, and regulatory specialists. We've worked at pharma companies, contract testing labs, and software vendors — and we've all done our share of manual data entry.
