Doctano is a free lab report tracker for the reports you already have. Upload a PDF or a photo, and it extracts the values, standardizes names and units across labs, and keeps every result linked to the report it came from.
The part most trackers skip
A tracker is only useful if it survives the second year. Three things decide that.
- Getting values in. Typing forty results from every report is the step people stop doing. Doctano reads the report instead.
- Making labs comparable. The same marker arrives under different names and units. A list that does not normalize them is a pile of numbers, not a history.
- Keeping the source. If you cannot get back to the original report, you cannot check the number.
What happens after you upload
- Read. Doctano reads the PDF or photo and pulls out each biomarker, value, unit, reference range, panel, and date.
- Standardize. Names and units are mapped to a common form, so SGOT and AST become one marker.
- Classify. Each result is compared with the range printed on its own report.
- Place. The result goes on the profile's timeline, next to the same marker from earlier reports.
- Link. Every value opens the original report it came from.
What you can see
One timeline
Results from different labs and years in one place, ordered by date.
Change for a single marker
Open a marker and see its values across reports, not just the latest one.
Cross-lab names and units
The same test stays one test even when two labs label it differently.
The source behind every value
Open the original report from a result and check it yourself.
A status for each result
Healthy, borderline, critical, or unknown, against that report's range.
An explanation for each marker
What it measures, what the range means, and what can affect it.

How it compares
The alternatives are not bad. Each one is the right answer for a different job.

What it does not do
- It does not diagnose, treat, or replace a doctor.
- It does not invent missing results. A value without a usable reference range stays unknown.
- It does not export your data yet.
- It does not have a native iOS or Android app. It runs in the browser.
How to start
Create an account with Google, upload one report, and check the extracted values against the original. That first check is the habit the rest of the product depends on.
