Product

One platform for your whole workflow

Organize, explore, collaborate on and deliver large-scale volumetric data streamed from your own storage, built on open Neuroglancer.

All the performance. None of the HURDLES.

The fastest visualization engine for volumetric imaging data

All the tools and performances of Neuroglancer with an improved user interface and experience.

Powerful history

Keep track of everything you do, restore or go back to any previous state. It’s called reproducible science.

Figures. Capture key visualizations from your study

Highlight critical findings and share them with colleagues. Edit and refine whenever you want.

Glances. Reproducible results

Capture a specific moment as you work on your study, preserving key insights for easy reference. Share a reproducible view of your data, enabling collaboration and research continuity.
Clarity does NOt stop at the image.

Keep track of your data and find what you need

Metadata

Link your metadata with native OME support or create custom metadata that fits your experiment.

Tagging

Group your Studies, Figures, and Glances with tags for quick, easy access whenever you need them.

Extensive search

Easily find your annotations, layers, Studies and more. NeuroGlass search through your whole database to find what you need.

Compare Dataset

Put together datasets in the same Collection and switch lenses to explore different perspectives. Keep everything ready in your NeuroGlass dashboard.

how it works

From raw volume to shared result

Four stages, one workspace — your data never leaves your storage at any point.

1 · Organize

Group datasets into Studies and Data Collections with rich metadata, and find anything — including inside a saved viewer state — with global search.
The Data Collections list: each collection with its title, description, metadata tags and number of Studies.

2 · Explore

Stream terabyte-scale volumes straight from your private buckets into the Neuroglancer viewer. Apply Lenses — reusable viewing templates — for consistent rendering.
The View settings panel on the Lenses tab: a light-sheet fluorescence Lens selected beside another Lens, with Create new Lens above, over an electron-microscopy slice.

3 · Collaborate

Leave spatial comments with @mentions and threads, work live in a shared session, and assign tracing tasks — with skeleton tracing in production with design partners.
A spatial comment thread pinned on a segmented structure: a question with an @mention and a reply, with a reply box below.

4 · Deliver

Capture Figures from any view and share a reproducible 3D link in minutes — no packaging, no downloads, no lost context.
The poster export panel: print size, orientation, figure size on the poster and QR code placement, next to a poster page with the figure and its scannable QR code.
no lock-in

Specifications

Under the hood

The formats, scale and controls a technical buyer asks for — spelled out.

Data formats

OME-Zarr (NGFF), Zarr, N5, single NIfTI, Neuroglancer Precomputed and Deep Zoom — plus data from BOSS, DVID, Render and DANDI.

Scale

Terabyte- to petabyte-scale volumes, streamed on demand straight from your own buckets — no copies, no downloads, no egress.

Reproducibility

Versioned Studies, exact-view Glances and full history — reopen any prior state, down to the layer, window and ROI.

Deployment

Managed SaaS, or on-prem Kubernetes on your own cloud — no external cloud dependencies.

Access & security

SSO via Keycloak and role-based, Google-Docs-style permissions; data stays in your own account and region.

API & interoperability

Documented, Keycloak-authorized REST API to script Studies and ingestion; views stay portable Neuroglancer JSON — no lock-in.
