MatruOS for a soil, water and seed testing lab
Set up the way a soil, water and seed testing lab runs: per-sample fees for soil, irrigation water, seed germination and purity, leaf and manure tests; scheme payments for Soil Health Card samples; fertiliser recommendation and advisory packages for FPOs and plantations. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves
What a soil, water and seed testing lab deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Reports and recommendations written by hand for each sample. Portal upload backlog holds back scheme payment.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 8 routines, 1 workflow, 3 registers and 4 licences for a soil, water and seed testing lab, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
Where you sit
MatruOS starts from how your business earns
Who you sell to, who you buy from, how credit moves and where you sit in the chain decide how your screens, reminders and reports are set up.
- Service beside the agri-input chain: sample
- lab
- recommendation
- farmer buys inputs
Your suppliers
- Reagent and glassware dealers
- Instrument makers and service engineers
- Sample bag printers
Credit and cash
Farmers pay cash or UPI at sample drop; FPOs and companies 30-60 days; scheme payments 3-9 months
Sample rush Apr-Jun and Sep-Nov; reagent stock bought before each rush; scheme money comes late, so private work carries the lab

Do I have to type all of this in?
No. The routines, workflows, registers, items, licences and AI team on this page arrive already set up. You change what is different in your business, and bring your customers, items and balances from Zoho Books, Vyapar, Excel and others, with our team's help for Tally data.
Can I change the routines and workflows?
