Laboratory software

Built for laboratories that have to prove their numbers.

Calibration and quality control done in spreadsheets is fast to start and painful to defend. These two applications replace that with validated statistics, enforced acceptance criteria and a complete audit trail — without the price or the implementation project of a full LIMS.

Analytical chemistry

CalibCurve

Calibration curves with linear and weighted regression, LOD/LOQ to DIN 32645, ANOVA, residual and influence diagnostics, QC acceptance rules and signed PDF reports. Method templates for HPLC, GC, ICP/AAS, UV-VIS, ELISA and titration.

Chess software

Three different answers to the same question.

Engines are strong now. That stopped being interesting a while ago. What is still genuinely hard is making a machine that plays like somebody, or that can explain why a move is good in language a human recognises. These three take that on from different directions.

Linea Chess games database
Training & analysis

Linea Chess

A complete working environment: games database, engine matches and round-robin tournaments, opening reference with ECO classification, tactics training and playing-strength assessment.

ChessGate playing against a historical chess personality

Pioneer 2 with plan panel and move commentary
Explaining engine

Pioneer 2

An engine that states its plan before it plays, tracks whether the plan is working, and narrates the causal chain behind each move — in the tradition of the Soviet школа.

Fotowerk
Consumer software
Sortieren · Bewahren · Wiederfinden

Twenty years of photos. No way to find any of them.

Fotowerk sorts a lifetime of digital photographs — duplicates, failed shots, categories — entirely on your own computer. Nothing is uploaded anywhere. You buy it once. It is built for people who tried three times already and gave up.

How we sell software

Four things we will not do.

These are not marketing positions. They are the reasons the products are built the way they are.

01

No subscription

Every product is a one-time purchase with a perpetual licence. The version you buy keeps working indefinitely. Future major versions are optional paid upgrades — never a condition of continuing to use what you already paid for.

02

No account, no cloud

Nothing phones home. The laboratory applications run fully offline, which matters in validated and air-gapped environments. Your data — calibration records, QC measurements, photographs — stays on your machine.

03

No implementation project

You download an installer and run it. There is no onboarding engagement, no configuration consultancy, no professional-services line item. The purchase is the whole transaction.

04

No pretending the software decides

In the laboratory products the software proposes; the analyst decides. Suggested QC verdicts are labelled as suggestions, and the final interpretation in every report is written and owned by a named human being.

Questions

Frequently asked

Are these products sold by subscription?

No. Every product is a one-time purchase with a perpetual licence per installation. The version you buy keeps working indefinitely. Future major versions are optional paid upgrades, never a condition of continuing to use software you already paid for.

Do they require an internet connection or an account?

No. All six are Windows desktop applications that run fully offline. Nothing phones home, no account is created, no data leaves your machine. This matters particularly for the laboratory products, often used in validated or isolated network environments.

How are the products delivered?

As a downloadable Windows installer with a licence key. No implementation project, no onboarding engagement, no configuration consultancy — you download it, install it, it works.

Is custom software development also available?

Yes, but it is a separate part of the business. DCS Analytics develops custom software for German mid-sized companies alongside these packaged products. The products listed here are finished software sold as-is and require no consulting engagement.

Which operating systems are supported?

All current products are Windows desktop applications supporting Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit.

How can I buy a licence?

Online checkout is being set up and is pending payment-provider approval. Until it is live, licences are available directly — write to us with the product and number of installations, and we will arrange invoicing, download and licence key.
