Partnerships built to last

Our partners are teams that produce data: laboratories, hospital departments, specialist centres.

CNRS / University of Strasbourg

Laboratory of Cognitive and Adaptive Neurosciences: development and validation of a voice-based cognitive assessment tool.

Montpellier University Hospital

Clinical research support: automated data collection and score computation.

Institutes and specialist centres

Institut de Santé Pelvienne des 2 Rives, Indoor Santé: Score Easy deployed to standardise the collection of assessment scales.

Three projects, one chain

Collect, structure, analyse. Each project addresses one link in that chain for a defined research audience.

01

Score Easy

In production

A platform for collecting and scoring validated assessment scales. Score Easy standardises administration, computes scores using each scale’s published algorithm and produces an exportable dataset, with no re-entry. Used by research teams, pain centres and specialist centres.

What makes a project with us safe to run

The points your IT team, your data protection officer and your procurement department will review before starting.

Built with research teams

Our tools grow out of academic collaborations and evolve with the teams that use them daily.

Certified health-data hosting, in France

Data produced by our platforms is hosted by a provider certified under the French health-data hosting scheme (HDS).

GDPR compliance

Data processing agreement, records of processing activities, full data portability at any time.

Fits your environment

Our platforms work alongside the tools and information systems already in place in your institution.

A small, reachable team

Two locations, Lyon and Strasbourg. The people you talk to are the people who build the product.

Research Tax Credit approval

For eligible organisations, the R&D work you entrust to us counts towards your research tax credit base.

04

Three ways to work together

From deploying an existing tool to co-designing a research project.

01

Software licence

You deploy Score Easy in your department or your protocol. Assessment templates configured, team trained, deployment supported.

02

R&D services

You entrust us with specific development work: integration with your information system, an analysis module, adaptation to a protocol. Eligible for the French research tax credit.

03

Research partnership

We co-design a tool around your research question, from concept to deployment, within a funded project or an academic collaboration.

Funding your work

Approved for the French Research Tax Credit

Traboule Labs is approved under the French Research Tax Credit scheme (CIR) by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research. The R&D work you entrust to us counts towards your own tax credit base, within the conditions and ceilings set by French law.

Before you write to us

The questions research teams and procurement departments ask most often.

01What exactly does Traboule Labs do?

We design and develop software tools for collecting, structuring and analysing data in health research. We publish them as platforms, such as Score Easy, and we also carry out bespoke development for research teams and institutions.

02Does your work qualify for the French Research Tax Credit?

Yes. Traboule Labs holds CIR approval from the Ministry of Higher Education and Research. Expenditure on the R&D work you entrust to us counts towards your tax credit base, within the conditions and ceilings set by French law. We provide the supporting documents required for your tax return.

03Are your tools medical devices?

No. Our platforms collect, compute and return assessment data. They pursue no diagnostic, prognostic, monitoring or treatment purpose within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/745, and produce no medical interpretation.

04Where is the data hosted?

In France, on servers certified under the French health-data hosting scheme, in line with the requirements applying to health data. The data remains the property of your organisation and can be exported at any time.

05Do you work with public institutions?

Yes. We work with university hospitals, specialist centres and research organisations, within the contractual frameworks of French public procurement.

06How does a project start?

With a thirty-minute conversation about your needs and your protocol. We then tell you whether one of our tools answers it as it stands, whether bespoke development is needed, or whether the project calls for a research partnership.
