Migration

Your history comes with you

Switching software is the biggest step a library can take, so ToyHive treats migration as a first-class feature: guided imports from SeTLS, MiBase, and spreadsheets, with a dry run you can inspect before anything goes live.

Early libraries don’t migrate alone

For the first libraries to switch, we work through the migration alongside you — export, dry run, review, and go-live. Your committee never has to guess whether the data made it.
