About MyAssays
In 2006, Darren Cook set about solving the problem of providing high-quality software for the many applications and platforms used in life sciences data analysis, forming MyAssays Ltd in 2009.
Our first ready-to-use online data analysis tools for popular bioassays were launched in May 2011, with 60 assay templates available for a wide range of commercially available kits and common analysis methods.
We later launched the MyAssays Excel Add-in to simplify performing this data analysis directly within an Excel document.
In January 2015, MyAssays launched the first genuinely easy-to-use online curve fitting resource, www.MyCurveFit.com, reshaping life sciences tools for the benefit of the wider community. Users include NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Microsoft, the banking sector, mining companies, weather forecasters, computer game developers, students, and many more.
In 2016, we launched MyAssays Desktop to provide the next generation of best-in-class data analysis tools for life sciences assays. The desktop-based system integrates with a growing database of online assay tools but also allows data analysis to be performed independently of the online service, enabling users with privacy and security concerns to keep all of their data private and in-house. Later, we introduced an Enhanced Security edition to support users working in regulated environments such as 21 CFR Part 11 and GxP.
In 2023, we launched the MyCurveFit Excel Add-in, a well-designed curve fitting toolset neatly and correctly integrated into the Excel calculation model. This simplifies building Excel workbooks with true curve-fitting functionality, without requiring Solver or complicated pop-ups.
In 2026, our next-generation platform, MyAssays2.com, was launched to deliver best-in-class online data analysis tools with a modern, streamlined user interface. New features include support for a broader range of assays, including multiplex, PLA, and RIA, as well as the ability to publish MyAssays Desktop protocols online for easy sharing of methods. MyAssays is also leading the way with advanced AI tools to assist with the creation and development of assay protocols.
MyAssays works with researchers, academia, clinical laboratories, reagent and instrument manufacturers, and product specialists to deliver best-in-class data analysis tools via online services and desktop-based products. We have developed a large, well-tested library of software components ready to integrate into new and existing data analysis applications.
