Free, browser-based labs for middle schools that don't have a science lab. Built for grades 6–8 and ready to run on the Chromebooks you already have.
Free forever. Pilots start in 2027.

Every lab is written like the handout you'd give your class: a short list of what you need, then the activity. Here's the materials list for all of them.
Chromebooks
Every lab runs in the browser on a school Chromebook. Nothing to install, and no IT request to file.
No student logins
Students join with a class code and a nickname. No accounts, passwords, or email addresses.
One class period
Each lab is built to fit a single 45-minute class, from opening the link to wrapping up.
Teacher-ready materials
A teacher guide, slides, a student worksheet, and a quiz come with every lab, aligned to science standards.
Beakers Not required.
These are the labs we're considering first. Tell us which tracks your students need in the form below, and we'll build those first.
How machines learn from examples, and how they get things wrong.
Teach the Machine
Train a webcam gesture recognizer, then test how the examples you gave it shape what it learned.
Bias Detective
Find out how a lopsided training set leads a model to make unfair predictions.
Fool the AI
Make small changes to images that trick a classifier, and work out why they fool it.
The tools scientists use to read, edit, and track living things.
CRISPR Editor
Cut and edit a DNA sequence on screen, then predict how the change affects a trait.
Outbreak Lab
Trace how a disease spreads through a town and test which interventions slow it down.
Fold It
Explore how a chain of amino acids folds into a protein's shape, and why the shape matters.
Simulations where students change the rules and watch what happens.
Orbit Builder
Place planets, set their speeds, and find the orbits that stay stable.
Climate Box
Adjust sunlight and greenhouse gases in a model atmosphere and track the temperature.
Crash Test Engineer
Design a car's crumple zone and measure the forces on the passenger in a collision.
Taking chemistry from a test tube to a working plant.
Water Plant
Run each stage of a treatment plant and get dirty water clean enough to drink.
Battery Designer
Choose electrode materials and build a battery that holds its charge.
Scale It Up
Take a reaction from a small batch to factory size, and handle what changes along the way.
Tell us a little about your classroom. Only the first three questions are required, but every answer helps us decide which labs to build first.
We'll email you about pilots in 2027 and when labs are ready for your track.
