As 2024 comes to a close, Uncountable is thrilled to reflect on an extraordinary year of growth, innovation, and tremendous impact across global R&D and R&I organizations. This year, we crossed significant milestones and laid the groundwork for an even brighter future in 2025. Here’s a look back at what we achieved together and a glimpse at what’s to come.

2024: A Landmark Year for Uncountable

This year, Uncountable grew into a truly global organization with over 80 employees spanning North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Our expansion reflects our commitment to providing localized support for our customers while delivering a Unified Laboratory Informatics Software platform for R&D digitalization.

We’re proud to announce several major new customers this year, including global leaders such as Mondelēz International, Clariant, Syngenta, Jotun, and many more. With these additions, we crossed the 100-customer milestone, with users now leveraging our platform in over 50 countries worldwide. These achievements underscore our mission to revolutionize R&D across various industries, from food and beverage, paint, crop protection, paints, and more – by providing a flexible, powerful, and user-focused solution that helps organizations accelerate innovation and bring new products to market faster.

Advancing Uncountable's Platform for a Connected Future

In 2024, we made significant strides in enhancing our platform to meet the diverse needs of R&D teams. Highlights include:

  • A more robust synthesis module to streamline workflows for customers with complex requirements.
  • A new voice-entry mode for data collection and the ability to search data via text-based prompts
  • A simplified, more configurable UI when building recipes and entering data
  • Enhanced dashboard and notebook capabilities to summarize data more flexibly for sharing and collaboration.

As Noel Hollingsworth, our CEO, expressed: “2024 was an exciting year for Uncountable. We solidified our place as the enterprise choice for R&D workflows. From startups to large 1,000+ R&D organizations, we’ve made significant progress in helping our customers transition from paper and spreadsheets to a modern, unified system incorporating a more robust synthesis module and seamless experience onboarding customers from all industries, complex, customer-facing workflows, and much more.”

Looking Ahead to 2025: Innovation and Impact

The momentum we’ve built in 2024 sets the stage for an even more impactful 2025. Here’s what’s on the horizon:

  • LLM Integration: We’re pushing the boundaries of how AI can enhance R&D with expanded large language model (LLM) integrations. These enhancements will enable real-time assistance for chemists through advanced search capabilities, automated plotting, and intelligent notebook and recipe generation.
  • Improved QC and Statistical Support: Quality control is critical to product success, and our improved QC charting and statistical tools will ensure teams can analyze data more effectively and make informed decisions faster.
  • Expanded Support for PLM and Project Management: In 2025, we’ll offer full support for product lifecycle management (PLM) and project management activities, making our platform the go-to choice for R&D teams at every stage of the innovation process.

A Commitment to Our Core Values

At Uncountable, our mission has always been to deliver a system tailored to customer needs, making their R&D digitalization journey flexible and streamlined. This commitment was evident in the numerous customer renewals this year—a testament to our customers' trust in us and the value we continue to deliver.

Noel captured Uncountable's ethos perfectly, “As we look ahead to 2025, I’m excited about the ongoing impact of our advancements in empowering our customers. Uncountable aims to continuously develop more innovative platform capabilities to support our customers and drive even greater innovation—whether through our newest LLM tools that serve as real-time assistants for chemists or streamlining processes from Quality Control to product management. At Uncountable, we remain committed to transforming R&D workflows, enabling teams to move beyond outdated tools like paper and spreadsheets to embrace a modern, connected system that leverages AI to accelerate their progress."

To our customers, partners, and team—thank you for being part of this journey. Your trust, collaboration, and innovation inspire us every day. Together, we’ve achieved incredible things in 2024, and we’re just getting started.
