Flywheel Exchange, LLC develops and distributes laboratory and scientific informatics software solutions. Their core platform, Flywheel, is built on top of the open-source application programming interface (API) SciTran, developed prior by several Flywheel founders based out of Stanford University.[1]
History
Flywheel Exchange, LLC was founded in May 2012.[2]
On September 29, 2015, Flywheel Exchange announced it would be entering into a partnership with Stanford Center for Cognitive and Neurobiological Imaging director Dr. Brian Wandell to commercialize his radiology and imaging-related scientific data management tools, called SciTran.[1][3] A week later, that software was revealed to be available as a private beta under the name "Flywheel." The software was reported to "offer scientists using functional MRI the tools to effectively capture, store, organize, and share their data."[4] The software exited the private beta phase on December 15 and became available for the general public.[5]
Technology and products
Flywheel
Flywheel is a cloud-based imaging-centric data management platform "for researchers seeking to transform productivity and collaboration in imaging research, clinical trials, multi-center studies and machine learning."[6] The platform provides four components: Enterprise, the base data management solution; Discovery, for discovering and cataloging data; Exchange, a tool for interacting with data partners; and Trial Flow, for managing clinical trial information in a compliant fashion.
The platform has some of the features reminiscent of a scientific data management system (the SciTran API at Flywheel's core was even formerly described as an SDMS[7]). The various features of the data management platform include[6]:
- support for many data types, including custom data types
- automated data capture from preferred imaging stations
- configurable de-identification tools to meet regulatory requirements
- image curation tools
- data privacy and role-based access controls
- support for electronic signatures
