Vision
Spending too much time on everything but data science is a huge pain point for data scientists. The growing model complexity gap is becoming a bigger issue every year. Our founders have worked together for years, innovating at the cutting edge of AI. They started Luminide to fill a void they have experienced in the field for 10 years.
Luke Hornof
Co-founder and CEO
Luke founded the software team at Nervana, an AI hardware startup which was acquired by Intel. As Director of AI Software at Intel, he grew his team to 150 engineers.
Anil Thomas
Co-founder and CTO
Anil was the third employee at Nervana. At Intel, he managed a team of research scientists who built innovative speech-recognition technology. He holds the title of grandmaster on Kaggle and was ranked #2 worldwide.

Our solution to data scientists spending too much time on everything but data science. We are laser focused on model development.
Whether you start out by choosing an existing, state-of-the-art model or designing your own from scratch, Luminde streamlines and accelerates the process. Experiment to see if new layers make an improvement. Fine-tune with domain specific data. Determine which data augmentations give you the best bang for your buck. Hyperparameter tuning to get that last bit of accuracy.
It’s not data: collecting, cleaning, labeling. It's not deployment: inference, edge computing. These are important, but many great companies are already solving these.
Next-gen optimizations
Our solution to closing the growing model complexity gap is software innovation. Hardware alone can't keep up. Our first ground-breaking innovation is the Luminide Early Ranking Engine.
Moore’s law only doubles every 18 months, model complexity increases 5 times every 18 months. Simply scaling hardware will drive the price sky high and create an enormous carbon footprint. Solving this gap requires software innovation.
Our ground-breaking Early Ranking Engine has been validated on real world problems to allow for 10 times faster training and 10 times less compute than the leading Bayesian optimizer. This feature has been built into our IDE for easy use on your toughest problems.
Our roadmap doesn't stop there. We have other optimizations in the pipeline to build the next generation of state of the art techniques (data augmentation, NAS, etc.). Due to our laser focus on model development and success to date we are confident in our ability to deliver. Stay tuned.
