ImageJ → ConductVision
No macros. No scripting. No fragile spreadsheets.
Five capabilities that replace scattered manual workflows with a single standardized platform.
Protocol Builder
Save fixed analysis workflows that every team member runs identically. Lock parameters, prevent drift, and standardize methods across multi-site studies.
AI Segmentation
Automatic cell and feature identification without manual thresholding. Visual overlays show exactly what was detected and why.
Audit Trail
Complete transparency on every setting and adjustment. Reviewers see the exact pipeline that produced your data.
Batch Processing
Apply your locked protocol to hundreds of images simultaneously. High-throughput analysis at scale without manual intervention.
One-Click Reporting
Export annotated images and summary data together. Publication-ready figures, CSV tables, and method descriptions in one click.
Protocols & Measurements
Six measurement categories, one platform
Every protocol category maps to built-in workflows you can lock, share, and run at scale.
Cell and nuclei counting
Count objects in microscope images quickly and consistently.
Percent area positive
Measure how much of an image is covered by a given signal or stain.
Colony counting
Count colonies from final plate photos, timed captures, or image folders.
Particle sizing
Quantify how many particles are present and how large they are.
Signal intensity comparisons
Compare how strong the signal is across regions or treatment groups.
Size and shape measurements
Measure size and shape distributions of objects in an image.
New application
ConductVision Colony Counting System
A dedicated colony-counting workflow for agar plates: incubate, capture one image, and export counts with colony locations and distribution analysis. When growth over time matters, ConductVision can capture scheduled images every 30 minutes and process the folder as a time series.
Typical workflow
Incubate, photograph, count
Use one still plate image when you only need the final colony count or a count at a specific time point.
Timed capture
Automated 30-minute intervals
ConductVision can acquire images at scheduled time points for growth curves without requiring video review.
Optional time-lapse
Growth dynamics and interactions
Use time-lapse when you want growth rate, colony dynamics, or colony interaction measurements over time.
AI output
Counts, locations, distribution
Export colony segmentation, total counts, colony coordinates, and spatial distribution summaries for one image or a folder.
Validated Performance
99% precision. Validated on 23,000+ cells.
Tested against expert manual counting — the gold standard in cell biology.
Combined precision and detection rate vs. expert counts
Virtually no false detections
Finds the vast majority of real cells
Trust your counts
99% precision means nearly every detected cell is real. No phantom counts inflating your data or triggering unnecessary review cycles.
Miss less
93% detection rate across diverse cell types. The model finds cells that manual counting overlooks, especially in dense or overlapping regions.
Standardize results
Same algorithm, same parameters, every time. Eliminate inter-operator variability and produce counts that hold up across reviewers and publications.

How It Works
From raw images to publication in four steps
Step 01
Define your protocol once
Set segmentation parameters, thresholds, and measurement rules. Lock the protocol so every analyst runs the identical pipeline.
Step 02
AI detects, you verify
Automated segmentation identifies cells, particles, defects, or regions of interest. Visual overlays let you confirm what was found.
Step 03
Batch hundreds of images
Apply your locked protocol to entire image sets in one click. Process overnight runs, multi-well plates, or time-lapse series without touching a single parameter.
Step 04
Export publication-ready data
Annotated images, summary statistics, and method descriptions export together. Drop directly into your manuscript, or pipe CSVs into R, Python, or Prism.
Scale without scripting
From a single image to five thousand \u2014 no code, no crashes, no manual overhead.
Drag-and-Drop Batches
Process a folder of 5,000 images as easily as one. No loops, no crashes.
Logic Without Code
Apply complex analysis protocols without writing a single line of Python or macros.
Adaptive Execution
AI adapts to lighting variance across the batch. It doesn't break when images look slightly different.
Unified Export
The system auto-compiles all results into one master table. Stop copy-pasting from 500 CSV files.
Reproducibility
Standardize Your Science
Define your method once. Lock it forever. Ensure every researcher measures with the exact same ruler, regardless of who runs the experiment.
