The intelligence layer for quantitative imaging.

01 · Agentic Imaging

Run, diagnose, and improve the system.

Use system context and bounded tools to prepare and monitor approved runs, investigate exceptions, and evaluate candidate changes while the Verified Pipeline remains the execution system of record.

02 · Scientific Insight

See what changed, where, and under which conditions.

Turn released, evidence-bearing imaging measurements into condition, phenotype, temporal, and spatial analyses linked through stable identifiers to source images and experimental context.

03 · Verified Pipeline

Keep evidence attached to every result.

Turn approved imaging methods into controlled execution with explicit operating conditions, stage-level QC, provenance, review, and change control.

Learn more

04 · Computational Imaging

Make complex signals measurable.

Design computation around the instrument, sample, and intended measurement—from calibration and reconstruction to segmentation, tracking, and quantitative features.

05 · Adaptive Acquisition

Let the experiment respond in real time.

Connect live image analysis to bounded instrument control so acquisition can refocus, retarget, rescan, change sampling, or switch modes as the experiment changes.

The complete system

Five capabilities. One imaging system.

Each system uses the capabilities its measurement requires. Fovea engineers the responsibilities and interfaces between them, around the instrument and experiment they all share.

System composition

The instrument, computation, operation, and analysis stay connected.

The stack is an architecture of responsibilities: each capability owns a distinct job, and the physical-system band carries the acquisition and experiment context they share. Position shows what each one works on; the edges show what moves between them.

Compose only what the system needs

A platform does not require every layer to deliver value.

Measurement systemInstrument + Experiment, Computational Imaging, and Verified Pipeline deliver a controlled count, table, dataset, report, or API.
Insight-ready systemAdd Scientific Insight when the work should compare conditions, phenotypes, dynamics, or spatial organization.
Responsive systemAdd Adaptive Acquisition when live analysis should change where, when, or how the instrument acquires.
Agentic operating layerThe measurement path can operate without Agentic Imaging. It adds the governed operating layer around approved workflows; the Verified Pipeline still decides what runs.

The same system, traced

Every band, and what crosses between them.

This is not a sequence — nothing starts at the top and finishes at the bottom. Each band is a responsibility, and the crossings between them are where the system is actually engineered. Instrument and Experiment sits among them as the physical system every capability shares; it is not a sixth thing Fovea sells. Adaptive Acquisition may also consume a computational estimate directly when one runs fast enough to steer a live experiment.

Information, action, and authority

Connected does not mean unconstrained.

Solid edges show an actual transfer or executed action. Dashed edges show evidence, context, or a proposal. A visible gate converts a dashed proposal into a solid approved action. The final side-edge design remains a separate visual study.

Design partnership

Which part of your imaging system needs to work better together?

Bring the instrument, acquisition, current workflow, intended measurement, and the transition or failure that is making the system difficult to trust or operate. We can map the responsibilities and define a focused first engagement.
