96 deep well plate map maker
Paint the layout by group, name the groups, and export a map and sample list your notebook and your library records both accept.
Click or tap wells to assign them to a group, or click a well and type to label it individually. Export produces the plate map and the sample list as Excel or CSV files.
Click or drag across wells to paint them with the selected group.
Why map a deep well plate in a tool instead of on paper
Because the map outlives the run, and for an archive plate it outlives the person who made it. An exported map travels with the plate's records, into the LIMS, the screening database, and the thaw three years from now. The tool paints by group, which is how libraries and extraction batches are actually laid out, and exports the sample list handlers and scripts read.

Common questions
Can the maker do other formats?
Yes. The format switch at the top rebuilds the grid as 6, 12, 24, 48, or 384 wells, with the same groups and export. Layouts built for one format do not carry to another, so pick the format before painting.
What do the exports contain?
The plate map as a grid with group names and colors, and the sample list as one row per well: address, group, and label. Both export as Excel or CSV.
