AI-powered
sorting for plant
seed research
From seed banks to agricultural labs, our EggSorter screens, classifies, and dispenses small seeds with speed and precision—processing thousands per hour to reduce variability and deliver consistent, high-quality results.

Bring precision, speed, and consistency to seed research
Bionomous automates the most time-consuming steps in small-seed workflows—screening, sorting, and dispensing with accuracy, full traceability, and throughput of thousands per hour.
Standardize seed quality assessment
Apply consistent selection criteria across batches—removing damaged or non-viable seeds for reliable research and production outcomes.
Boost throughput without extra labor
Handle thousands of seeds per hour with AI-based classification—freeing your team from repetitive, manual sorting.
Improve data-driven decisions
Capture and store images and classification results for every seed—supporting traceability and further analysis.
Adapt lab-proven sorting for seed-based protocols
Bionomous’ core technology automatically screens, classifies, and sorts plant seeds by quality, size, or germination.
Automate seed quality selection
Detect damaged, malformed, or undersized seeds using brightfield or fluorescence imaging—removing low-quality samples with precision.
Support seed viability and germination studies
Create uniform seed batches and screen for germination, enhancing reproducibility across trials.
Sort by size, morphology, or markers
Use AI-driven classification to separate seeds based on physical traits or fluorescent markers—ideal for specialized research or breeding programs.
Teach your sorter to grade seeds your way
LabSwipe lets you train the system’s AI using images from your own seed samples. Define the traits that matter—size, shape, or fluorescence expression—without coding. All processing happens locally, so your data never leaves your device.
Define your quality benchmarks
Flag examples of ideal and subpar seeds in your images. LabSwipe translates those benchmarks into an AI model that applies them consistently.
Adapt to seasonal and species variation
Update the model with new data as you work with different crops, harvest conditions, or preservation methods—keeping accuracy high year-round.
Build a reusable visual library
Curate a set of annotated seed images that becomes your in-house reference for training and refining AI sorting over time.

At the Leibniz Institute on Aging – Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI), we are using the EggSorter for sorting Nothobranchius furzeri wild type eggs onto plates containing coconut substrate. The EggSorter has proven to be a highly reliable and efficient tool in our workflow, significantly streamlining the egg-sorting process.
We are very satisfied with its performance. The system operates with very high precision and consistency, helping us to save time and standardize a previously labor-intensive step. The EggSorter fully meets our expectations and has become an indispensable part of our daily work with N. furzeri embryos

Our goal was to robotize the sorting of the fish eggs to improve our productivity. We acknowledge the perseverance of Bionomous to solve technical difficulties and successfully deliver the tool adapted to our specific needs. The eggsorter dedicated to Medaka fish eggs facilitates the work of our technicians.

The Bionomous EggSorter saves me valuable time in the laboratory while ensuring accurate and reliable results.
Thanks to its automation, I can focus on my experiments/other tasks without worrying about repetitive sorting tasks.
