Case Study: Fluent Biosciences achieves faster, scalable single-cell analysis with LatchBio

How Fluent set up an informatics cloud solution for single cell kits on Latch

Fluent Biosciences, a biotechnology company, faced a significant challenge as its customers lacked the computational infrastructure to analyze the immense datasets generated by its single-cell kits. Processing over a million cells created a bottleneck, with researchers like those at WUSTL struggling for weeks on local high-performance computers, delaying scientific insights and potentially hindering kit repurchases. Fluent partnered with LatchBio to solve this informatics problem.

Using the Latch platform, Fluent uploaded its PIP-seeker analysis tool, which provided users with a simple interface and access to scalable cloud computing. This solution enabled a researcher to process a dataset of over one million cells in under 48 hours, reducing compute costs by over 80% and drastically accelerating time-to-insight. LatchBio's partnership allowed Fluent to expand this powerful, easy-to-use informatics solution to support all of its kits.
