We have introduced Chemspyd as a simple, lightweight and easy-to-use Python API for Chemspeed platforms. In contrast to existing software interfaces, Chemspyd allows for fine-grained, dynamic instrument control, thereby facilitating the usage of Chemspeed instruments in custom workflows and SDLs. With the rapid spread of Chemspeed platforms across academic and industrial laboratories across the world, we envision widespread adoption of this package, particularly in those scenarios where dynamic control and flexible integration with third-party software or hardware is required. Importantly, Chemspyd is an open-source project. Therefore, we encourage feedback and contributions from the community, and hope to inspire development of further functionality based on the needs of users outside our laboratory.
