We have developed a modular software system that enables researchers to monitor and control chemical reactions via the internet, using any device from any location in the world. It facilitates the automation of synthetic procedures and is able to autonomously self-optimize reaction parameters to find the best conditions meeting customizable, multi-component optimization functions. In this report, we demonstrate its utility as applied to reaction automation to maximize the output from a fixed volume of catalyst. We also showcase its ability to optimize a three dimension heterogeneous catalytic reaction and a five dimension Appel reaction against various target functions.
