YC-Funded Quartzy Brings Order To Science Lab Supply Cabinets

When we think of scientists, we often picture distinguished researchers in white coats, methodically conducting experiments in labs that run like well-oiled machines. Unfortunately things are usually less glamorous. Science labs have a lot going on, and while they're generally very focused on making sure safety protocols are followed and contamination is minimized, there are some things that are a little less organized. Like ordering supplies ?�oftentimes reagents are either ordered in excess (resulting in waste) or forgotten about until they're needed (resulting in delays). Quartzy, a startup that's part of the most recent Y Combinator batch, is setting out to fix that problem. The company launched around 18 months ago and has 4,500 scientists worldwide using the service ?�and there are plenty more who could use help keeping their supplies in check.
