We hear it every day - people just like you tell us that:
Labels, teams, locations, productions, events… all run separately, all with “unique requirements”
Lumi is amazingly flexible, and suits all sorts of Production needs very well. Podcasts, Sports Broadcasting, Crewing, Reality, Documentaries, semi-scripted, scripted, the list goes on and on. Our workflows mean that every team can get what they need, and our system is so easy to use that it doesn't get in the way. Everything teams need, none of what they don't want.
The use of Freelancers to rapidly scale means there's no time, particularly as budgets shrink
Traditional software needs training. Lumi is so intuitive that everyone can just pick it up and use it. And the best part is that it only takes a day or two to configure it for your needs.
We also use fantastic on-boarding techniques - get your Freelancers familiar with your processes before they even start by sharing your specific workflows with them in a simulated product like this one
Single-focus teams = silos with no overall flow. No concern for downstream data – eg Post.
We hear this from our customers all the time. Before Lumi, each team worked separately and there was very little flow of information between them. Lumi customers shave significant time across the production simply by having all teams connected to the single source of truth. And for Post Production, it's revolutionary. You can shave weeks off your Post. Seriously.
Each new production treated as a new business - starting everything from scratch.
Lumi customers are able to leverage existing skills, existing processes, banks of information such as a Casting Bank or Location Bank, existing onboarding tools, etc - and ramp up much quicker.
Working in the moment. No long-term view, not even “next Production, next year, next series”.
As our clients tell us - before Lumi, EVERYTHING was a do-over. Lumi customers are able to take a long-term view, and refine their processes over time. This leads to better and better processes, with significant time savings. And often, they end up getting rid of other tools altogether.
IT governance (security, IP, cyber) too far removed, too complex, too lengthy. “Get Production done!”
Our clients tell us that before using Lumi it was nearly impossible to ensure the right approach to IT governance. Things like security, intellectual property (IP), and cybersecurity—often feels like a long, complicated process that’s far removed from the day-to-day work of getting things done. When teams are under pressure to deliver, the last thing they want is to wade through policies and procedures that slow them down. The problem is, when governance gets ignored in favor of speed, it can leave the company open to serious risks—data breaches, stolen IP, compliance issues, or security gaps that could cause major headaches down the road. Lumi helps by keeping things simple, practical, and built into everyday workflows, so that teams can stay productive without leaving the business exposed.
Yes, yes, heard this all before...
Why is Lumi different?
Lumi developed SPECIFICALLY to tackle these challenges, and to:
Get you started - QUICK!
You'll be amazed at how quickly you can get started with Lumi. It's designed to be extremely quick and easy to set up, and even more so to use. People need no training, and you don't need us to configure it for you, you can easily add or remove whatever you want - although we're always here to help.
Unite your People
Eliminate countless emails, calls, and wasted hours—instantly streamline communication with Lumi.
Before Lumi, teams felt disconnected. Now, Crew, Cast, Producers, and more stay aligned from the start. Gather essential info from Crew, Cast - and anyone else - through our Outreach Platform and effortlessly share updates, like callsheets, via the companion app.
“Using Lumi has empowered teams across multiple locations to stay organized, and given production managers confidence in organizing their crew, travel and financials to suit their specific production needs. Lumi’s flexibility allows you the freedom to move away from multiple grids and duplication and errors that come with human data entry. It offers unparalleled visibility and is a great collaboration tool. Lumi is very intuitive and brings an ease of reporting that we’ve yet to experience. Their service team is well versed in Film/TV and is readily available to help you curate a program that works for you.”
ITV America Production, Travel Projects Manager.
Unite your Teams
Save weeks in Post and countless hours daily. In our industry, siloed teams repeat tasks, lose key info, and overlook downstream needs—focused only on speed and shrinking budgets. Then freelancers move on, often taking valuable IP with them.
Post Production feels it most, left chasing details after the fact.
With Lumi, your teams work in one place, once—saving time, protecting IP, and benefiting everyone, from oversight to future projects.
Unite your processes
Lumi is the only system that can do it all - end to end. From Pre-production to wrap-up, and everything in between including Casting, Crewing, Logging, Field to Post, Stories, Episodes, etc. You need to see it for yourself...
More importantly, it will fit in with your existing processes and systems beautifully. Using Microsoft or Google for your documents? No problems, we'll integrate really nicely. Zoom? Yep, we integrate.
Check out our Product Tours and you'll see some of what we do.
Unite your systems
Why use multiple Casting systems, multiple file storage systems, multiple communication platforms like Whatsapp and email, etc - they only add to the disconnect. With Lumi, you only need one thing.
"After 11 years of A&E there were lots of systems and processes in place. So when we introduced Lumi, it gave us a chance to review what was really necessary. One week in and we realised there were lots of things we no longer needed- lumi was doing it all.
With everything in one place it was so much easier to find everything - all linked to one patient card."
Louise Bartmann, Series Producer, 24 Hours in A&E, ITV Studios UK
Stop reinventing the wheel - seriously!
