⚠️Fasting glucose
105 mg/dLJust above the 99 mg/dL cutoff. Fasting glucose responds to sleep, recent meals, and stress — a single value is a snapshot, not a verdict. Worth comparing with HbA1c.

💚HbA1c
5.5%Right inside the typical range. HbA1c averages glucose over the past ~3 months — useful as a longer-term context to a single fasting glucose value.
Read more💚Insulin
8.2 µIU/mLInside the healthy range. Some clinicians order this alongside glucose to understand how the body is responding to that sugar load.

LabTestly was designed specifically for patients — not clinicians. Every feature is built around you.
Plain-English explanations
Every biomarker is translated into language anyone can understand — no medical degree required.
Reference range context
We show you not just your number, but what it means — where it falls within healthy ranges and why it matters.
Calm, not clinical
No alarming language. No diagnoses. Just the calm, educational clarity you need to feel genuinely informed.
Questions for your doctor
We help you formulate the right questions before your next appointment — so no visit feels wasted.
Smarter assistant on Premium
Pro members get a deeper-thinking assistant — it reasons across multiple markers at once and writes richer, more thorough answers.
Your PDF auto-deletes
We wipe your original file from our servers the moment analysis succeeds — usually within seconds. Only the structured data that powers your chat and trends stays. Encrypted, never sold.
Blood glucose measures the amount of sugar in your blood at the moment of the draw. Fasting glucose (after at least 8 hours without food) is the version most commonly used for screening.
Glucose is a snapshot in time; HbA1c is an average over 2–3 months. They’re usually read together — if both are above the reference range a clinician typically repeats testing for confirmation.
No. We never diagnose. Some glucose values sit near recognized thresholds, but diagnosis requires confirmation testing and clinical context from a clinician.
Yes. Each upload joins your timeline so you can see how glucose changes report to report.
No. LabTestly is an educational tool that explains what blood test values mean in plain language. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. We always encourage you to discuss your results with your doctor — every interpretation includes that reminder.
We accept PDFs, JPEGs, PNGs, and WebP files up to 10 MB. This covers printed lab reports, scanned documents, photos taken on your phone, and screenshots from patient portals like MyChart or Quest Diagnostics. If your lab sends a PDF by email, you can upload that directly.
Our AI is trained on medical literature and uses established clinical reference ranges. Interpretations are carefully worded to be educational and accurate. That said, lab values can be affected by many factors — time of day, recent meals, medications — which is why we always encourage a conversation with your doctor for full context.
Privacy First: Your Data, Your Control
- Files are Temporary: Within seconds of analysis, your original PDF is permanently purged from our servers.
- Structured Privacy: We only retain the extracted data points (numbers, dates, and markers) to power your charts and chat history.
- Total Security: All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-leading protocols.
- Our Zero-Sharing Promise: We never sell your data to insurers, never share it with advertisers, and never use it to train public AI models.
We cover most standard blood panels including Complete Blood Count (CBC), Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP), Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP), Lipid Panel, Thyroid function (TSH, T3, T4), Vitamin D and B12, Iron studies, HbA1c, and more. If you upload a panel we don't recognize, we'll tell you.
Absolutely. Every interpretation can be downloaded as a PDF or shared via a secure, expiring link. Many of our users bring their LabTestly summary to appointments as a conversation starter. It's designed to complement — not replace — the doctor-patient relationship.
The free plan includes 1 lab report per month. For most people that is enough if they only test occasionally and just want to understand their results in plain language.
Premium is built for people who want to see the full picture of their health over time. You can upload unlimited lab reports, add older tests, and compare markers as they change.
With Premium you get:
- Unlimited lab report uploads
- A full history of all your tests
- Comparison of markers over time
- Health timeline — the overall picture of your tests and changes
