Mobile conversational video · Patents pending

One day, someone will wish they could ask.

A founder. A curator. A grandmother. The person who holds the story only they can tell — and who nobody has thought to sit down with yet and capture the knowledge, the wisdom, the insight.

Lumenairi® makes sure that conversation still happens.

Record on the Lumenairi® mobile app today, and for as long as it matters, anyone can ask them a question and hear the answer in their own voice.

Designed for communities, museums, archives, families, and enterprise teams, Lumenairi® brings your family, your organization, your community alive.

Things to ask him about

  • How he became an AI scientist
  • Why he chose a life in science
  • What causal thinking is
  • His hopes for what AI could become
  • Losing his son, Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, to terrorism

Ask anything — he answers in his own words.

Pedigree Expertise Innovation

Built by the pioneers of conversational video

In 2010 Heather Maio-Smith envisioned filming holographic conversations with Holocaust survivors to preserve for the future. Stephen D. Smith, used his innovation skills at USC Shoah Foundation to bring conversational video into being through Dimensions in Testimony. Glenn Harless worked on the first ‘virtual conversation’ video platform with his father, as far back as the early 1990’s. They came together, to put their decades of experience with interactive storytelling into the hands of everyone. The Lumenairi® mobile app is the outcome. Now the power of conversational video is yours to use, anytime, anywhere, with anyone.

Built for real-world use

Enterprise

Museums and Archives
