Loominus Studio: The AI Workbench for Labs and Factories

September 24, 2026 11:30 – 11:35 · 5 min Outdoor Stage

What this session covers

Most AI agents move files. Ours run machines.

Loominus Studio is an AI workbench. You use it to build agents that work alongside people to design and make real things: materials, formulations, devices. The jargon for this is collaborative cyber-physical agents. The plain version is agents with hands.

What you build is a harness. A harness is everything an agent needs to do real work: the tools it can reach, the steps it follows, what it remembers, what it is allowed to touch. Coding agents have harnesses. That is why they work. Labs and factories have none.

You build one by wiring nodes into a graph. Each node is a step or a tool: run this machine, mix this batch, ask a person to check, measure the result, pick what to try next. Wire them together and the agent runs the loop.

Two things matter about these harnesses.

Configurable: no two labs work the same way, so you build yours instead of buying someone else’s.

Portable: build it once, run it on someone else’s machines. Your process should not be locked to one vendor’s box.

We use it ourselves. MetaLab is a harness for making formulations. BioLoom is a harness for printing parts. Same workbench, different graph.

Five minutes on why the loop that made coding agents work is the same loop every lab runs, why nobody built the workbench for it, and what that changes for the bioeconomy age, when the things ahead of us have to be made, not just written.
