Calira helps you manage bookings in one lab, or a whole organisation.
Calira offers three academic subscription tiers: Core, Premium, and Enterprise. Core is a flat annual fee covering unlimited users, equipment, and bookings designed to remove per-seat barriers in academic settings. Premium adds booking rules, AI workflows, data extraction, and maintenance tracking. Enterprise adds ELN integrations, account hierarchy setup, support, and SAML 2.0 SSO.
Core covers the essentials: an equipment directory, booking calendar, user invitations by email or shareable link, and calendar sync. It's suitable for single labs or small departments that need to replace spreadsheets with a proper booking system but don't need advanced booking rules or reporting.
Yes. Premium and Enterprise plans have a minimum of 10 seats.
Yes. Academic pricing is structured differently to industry pricing, with the Core tier providing an accessible entry point for universities and research institutions. Exact pricing depends on the scope of the deployment. Please contact the sales team for an academic quote.
Calira has features specific to core facilities: lab services and ordering, projects and funding code tracking, and booking pricing/rates for recharge workflows. These are the features most often needed by university core facilities running internal or external recharge models.
Our team have years of experience in the lab and can answer any question you have, as well as demo the whole platform in less than thirty minutes.
