Empowering Practitioners with Precision Blood Work Interpretation

LabSmarts is functional blood chemistry analysis software designed to reflect real physiology rather than population averages.

Built on evidence-based, bio-individual reference ranges, LabSmarts helps practitioners see meaningful patterns in blood work, translate complex data into clinical insight, and communicate results with clarity and confidence.

Our Story

Built by a Practitioner Who Needed Better Answers

LabSmarts was created by MaryAnn Marks, a holistic nutrition consultant and functional medicine practitioner with decades of experience interpreting blood work in real clinical settings.

Like many practitioners, MaryAnn relied on functional reference ranges early in her practice. Over time, it became clear that those ranges often missed important physiological nuances, especially in age, pregnancy, hormonal transitions, and elevation.

Using a spreadsheet was time-consuming, inconsistent, and difficult to communicate clearly to clients, and existing tools overwhelmed both the practitioner and client.

LabSmarts was built to solve that problem. It is the software MaryAnn wanted in practice. One that respects practitioner judgment while providing accurate, bio-individual context and automated insights.

Bauman College Grad MaryAnn Marks Pioneers Holistic Nutrition with LabSmarts

MaryAnn Marks’ story is a remarkable fusion of passion for holistic nutrition and a knack for technological innovation. A proud graduate of Bauman College’s Nutrition Consultant program, MaryAnn didn’t just build a successful practice; she identified a crucial gap in the industry and created an intuitive software solution, LabSmarts, that is now empowering practitioners worldwide. Her journey is a testament to how a solid foundation in holistic health, combined with entrepreneurial vision, can lead to unexpected and impactful careers.

Why LabSmarts Was Built

The Gap Between Data and Understanding

Blood work is one of the most powerful clinical tools available, yet most practitioners are forced to interpret it using reference ranges that were never designed for individualized care.

Conventional ranges are built on population averages, not optimal physiology. Even functional ranges fail to account for differences in age, sex, pregnancy trimester, elevation, and other biological variables that change how labs should be interpreted.

As a result, practitioners are left to manually reconcile conflicting information, mentally track patterns across systems, and translate complex findings into language clients can understand.

LabSmarts exists to close that gap.

What Sets LabSmarts Apart

  • Clarity over complexity: The interface reveals biological patterns without overwhelming the practitioner.
  • Respect for clinical intuition: LabSmarts supports practitioner expertise rather than attempting to replace it.
  • Client empowerment: Reports are structured so clients can understand their results and engage in their own care.
  • Bio-individual reference ranges: Reference ranges are customized by age, sex, and physiological context.
  • Pregnancy-specific blood work interpretation: Dynamic, trimester-specific reference ranges make LabSmarts uniquely suited for practitioners working with fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum physiology.

Our Mission and Vision

LabSmarts empowers practitioners with precise, evidence-based blood work interpretation software that transforms complex lab data into clear, clinically relevant insights.

We envision a future where practitioners can interpret blood work with confidence and accuracy, and clients can understand their results clearly enough to participate in their care.
