Ginkgo Bioworks Launches Ginkgo Cloud Lab with Autonomous Lab Infrastructure
Ginkgo Bioworks has launched Ginkgo Cloud Lab, allowing researchers to access its autonomous lab infrastructure via a web browser. The lab operates on Reconfigurable Automation Carts (RACs), featuring robotic arms and maglev transport. An AI agent, EstiMate, evaluates research protocols in real-time. This launch is part of Ginkgo's strategy to transition all R&D services to its Nebula lab in Boston, MA, replacing traditional lab setups.

Ginkgo Bioworks launched Ginkgo Cloud Lab, enabling researchers to utilize its autonomous lab infrastructure through a web interface. The Cloud Lab employs Reconfigurable Automation Carts (RACs) that integrate robotic arms and maglev transport systems.
An AI agent named EstiMate allows scientists to submit protocols in natural language for immediate compatibility assessments and pricing information. This initiative aligns with Ginkgo's 2026 strategy to migrate all R&D services to its Nebula lab in Boston, MA, moving away from traditional lab benches.
