About Luma AI

Luma AI is an artificial intelligence company based in Palo Alto that develops multimodal systems for creating photorealistic visual content. With over 30 million users and $173 million raised from investors including Amazon and Andreessen Horowitz, Luma AI has established itself as a leader in AI video generation.

Dream Machine, Luma AI's flagship product, enables video generation from simple text descriptions. Powered by the Ray3 model, it produces videos with realistic physics, natural lighting, and fluid motions that rival studio productions. The "Loops" feature allows creating infinite videos for marketing and social content.

Luma AI's NeRF (Neural Radiance Fields) technology excels at 3D capture and reconstruction. From photos or videos, the system generates photorealistic 3D models usable in professional workflows (Adobe, Blender). Genie 1.0 goes even further by creating 3D objects in under 10 seconds from text.

The platform offers a flexible credit system: the free plan provides 8 draft videos, while paid subscriptions unlock up to 10,000 monthly credits with 4K HDR export and commercial rights. The Unlimited plan offers unlimited generations in relaxed mode.

Luma AI targets creators, production studios, marketing agencies, and 3D design professionals. Integration with Adobe and standard export formats facilitate incorporation into existing creative pipelines.
