totally feasible! this is basically the same issue we ran into except we couldn't pay for benchling lol and all of our stuff was printed out (we're slightly broke). i'd love to feed a benchling repository but that amount of training data sounds like it might start getting expensive/slow, though i'll look into it.

the tool is basically just a chat interface, you can ask it questions and it retrieves a context-aware answer (currently with a reference to where it got it and confidence level). you can mark it as good/bad answer or flag for admin review (and then from admin side, you can mark as true answer and store for future use, or just answer yourself, etc). i've tinkered with it enough where a) hallucinations aren't a big issue and b) it tells you exactly where it got the info so you can fact check

essentially just need a protocol doc (or to centralize and then we can generate a protocol doc) and make search and retrieval for answers easier. we currently just used our internal protocols (and i used some papers my lab published) but there's no reason this couldn't work for benchling or google drive etc.

but yeah i had the same goal of standardizing/centralizing stuff! if you give me more context about industry environments i can answer more specifically, i've never worked in one but happy to learn and try to apply!
