About Luma AI

Luma AI now centers on a creative workspace and developer platform for generating and modifying images and video. A creator can begin with a prompt or reference, explore visual directions, guide motion or key moments, and refine an output through natural-language changes. Developers can use Luma's APIs for programmatic image and video workflows. This is distinct from the company's earlier 3D-capture identity: the current product is best evaluated against Runway, Kling AI, and Pika for generative visual production, with separate editing tools still required for full timelines and finishing.
