Lumi · AI-powered Production Intelligence
The real-time knowledge hub for production. Captured as the work happens.
Lumi holds and connects your whole team's information, staff and freelance, as it's created: on set, in the office, on the road. That connected knowledge is Production Intelligence. It powers your key operations and editorial, and it's the essential base for AI insights, built in automatically.

What Lumi is
Lumi gives every team the visibility, real-time information and control they need, while keeping the whole production connected. Update once. Update everywhere.
Built for production teams
Teams that come together fast, in a world that changes by the hour.
Most production teams are freelancers who meet just weeks before the shoot and have to run as one from the start. Locations move, weather turns, schedules shift and cast change. Without one shared picture, every change becomes another message, another spreadsheet, another note on the wall.
- "Which version of the callsheet are we on?"
- "Who's got the latest version?"
- "Was I supposed to know that by osmosis?"
- "Check the WhatsApp. No, the other WhatsApp."
- "I'm sure we did a pickup on that, but the editors can't find it."
Up to speed on day one
New crew see everything they need from their first login, without a week of catching up.
One change, everywhere
Update once and the whole team sees it, so nobody is working from yesterday's version.
Knowledge stays at wrap
When the team moves on, what they learned stays with your company for the next production.
What you're buying
One knowledge hub. Production Intelligence across your whole operation.
Capture it once. Connect it everywhere. Act on it now.
01 Capture
A real-time knowledge hub
Shootlogs, casting, travel, crew, welfare and media are captured where the work happens, by whoever is there. Nothing waits for someone to type it up later.
02 Connect
Production Intelligence
Lumi links people, days, scenes and decisions automatically. Your operations and editorial teams work from the same live picture, from a single timecode to the whole series.
03 Insight
The essential base for AI
Because your information is already held and connected, AI has real context to work with: the best stories from yesterday, summarised gallery transcripts and organised field notes.
Watch Lumi and AI at work
The importance of one source of truth.
No matter how your team captures it on the go, Lumi and AI standardise every shoot log for search, so every team sees what it needs quickly. Then AI surfaces story threads earlier, suggesting the links, pickups, Master Interviews and backstories worth following.
This demo uses Claude, but Lumi isn't tied to one AI. Your production's information lives in Lumi, so whichever AI you connect works the same way.
See Lumi at work
Every team's view, built on the same live information.
Each team gets a workspace shaped around its job. Underneath, it's all one connected record, so an update in one view shows up in every other.
Balance and pitch your line-up
Drag contestants between shows on a visual casting board, with tags for age, job and status. Present it straight to the exec and network team.
Casting, from audition to pitch
Audition schedules, lineups, pitch boards and fit-to-participate checks in one casting hub.
Crew, travel and comms
Travel, visas, documentation and distribution lists across countries and time zones, with every change logged.
How Production Intelligence works
When information lives with the work, everything changes.
-
Captured as it happens
A producer logs a moment on location. A coordinator books a flight. A casting producer moves an applicant forward.
-
Held and connected
Lumi connects it to the right people, days and stories, with access limited to the teams who should see it.
-
Production Intelligence
Every team sees what it needs in real time, and leadership sees the whole operation. AI insights build on top.
Grow as you go
Start with the job that's hardest right now.
You don't need to change the whole production on day one. Pick one area, get value straight away, and connect more teams when you're ready. Each one adds to your Production Intelligence.
Start with Travel & logistics
Every movement, booking and person connected, so a late change reaches everyone it affects.
Start with Auditions & casting
From application to selection, consent and onboarding, with every contributor's journey in one record.
Start with Editorial & shootlogs
Shootlogs, story notes, interviews and media references, followed as stories develop across days.
Start with Crew
Availability, allocations, onboarding and personalised communications, kept current for everyone.
Start with Welfare
Checks, notes and medical records in private vaults that only the welfare team can open.
- STAGE 1
One team, one workflow
Solve the most pressing problem first, with the team that feels it most.
- STAGE 2
Connect more teams
Add teams as you're ready. Their information joins the same hub, with no re-entry.
- STAGE 3
Production Intelligence everywhere
Leadership sees across the whole production, and the slate, with AI insights on connected data.
In our customers' words
What production teams tell us.
Update once. Update everywhere.
One source of truth. A shootlog note reaches the story, cast and interview prep as soon as it’s logged.
Micro and macro views.
Zoom from a single timecode to a contributor's whole arc, then out to the entire series.
Everything in one place.
Story, casting, crew, travel, welfare and media under one roof, whoever captured it.

For Finance and Heads of Production
The business case.
What changes for your budget, your risk and your teams.
Consolidate your tools
Lumi can replace up to 15 separate systems and apps across casting, logging, logistics and production. That means fewer licences, fewer logins and less double handling.
Cut coordination
Manual coordination is around 30% of a production team's work today. Lumi's automations and AI take a large share of it away, so information is entered once and reaches everyone who needs it.
Reduce risk
Consent, welfare and contributor records sit in controlled, permissioned places, with access removed instantly when people leave.
Pay as you grow
Start with one team and expand when it's working. Your investment follows the value you see.
Own your data
You are the Controller. Your data is never used to train AI models, and it’s returned on request, without penalty or lock-in.
Build an asset
Every production adds to your Production Intelligence. The knowledge stays with the company, not in someone’s notebook.
Sustainability & compliance
Less paper. Less waste. Fully accountable.
Every note, form and call sheet that lives in Lumi is one that isn't printed, copied or thrown away. Productions run paperless from the first shoot day, and their data is handled to the standards a broadcaster expects.
