Developing prototype therapeutic technologies and AI systems — built for competition, designed for the future.
Heatons Labs is an independent prototype development studio based in Stockport, UK. We design and build therapeutic medical devices and AI systems — entering technology competitions and pushing concepts from idea to working prototype.
We operate without affiliation — independently conceived, independently built. Our work is a preview of a broader product vision: demonstrating what's possible when clinical thinking meets engineering ambition.
A prototype device exploring contactless manipulation of matter using acoustic standing waves — demonstrating a new paradigm for how therapeutic and laboratory processes could operate without physical contact.
A concept-stage therapeutic device exploring novel approaches to haemorrhage management in extreme environments — where conventional intervention is not possible and time is the critical variable.
An AI systems project exploring how coordinated networks of autonomous agents can run complex operations for small organisations — a preview of Heatons Labs' broader ambition in applied AI as a product discipline.
Interested in what we're building? We're open to conversations with competition organisers, collaborators, investors and anyone who wants to see what comes next.
