Get your nights back.
Keep your protocol.
Whelix runs your SOP exactly the way you wrote it — split when cells hit confluency, feed on biological time, read morphology on demand. You stay the approver. Willow does the typing.

Describe the protocol. Willow handles the rest.
Speak or type in plain language. Willow compiles your intent into a validated, executable protocol — with the reagents, timing, and decision points already worked out.

You brief Willow in plain language — voice or text.
Willow drafts the protocol
Reagents, volumes, timing, incubation, imaging cadence — all proposed.
Digital twin runs it first
You see timing, collisions, and reagent draw before a single tip moves.
You approve. Willow runs it.
Autonomous execution. You get pinged only when Willow needs you.

MON 09:14 load & go
You set up the deck. Willow reads it.
Plates, tips, reagents, media. Whelix scans every barcode and confirms the lineage with the ELN entry you started this morning.
-
MON 09:22 brief
"Run the standard passage. Split B12 1:6 at 80% confluency."
Type it, paste it from your SOP, or point to the protocol you ran last week. Willow compiles, the twin simulates, you approve.
-
WED 02:48 night work
B12 hits 80%. Willow splits. You sleep.
In the morning you'll see the run log, the vision frame that triggered the call, and the CV across the new plate.

FRI 16:00 handoff
Cells delivered to spec. Audit trail attached.
Confluency curve, lineage, reagent lots, vision frames per well, and Willow's reasoning for every decision — exportable as a single bundle.
Every run ships with the data behind it.
Whelix isn't a black box. Every decision lands in an audit log with the vision frame and quantification that triggered it. Reproducibility is the receipt — not the promise.
