Dream Machine
Dream Machine is Luma AI's flagship generative AI video platform that creates photorealistic videos from text, image, or video prompts. The platform serves over 30 million users globally and enables creative professionals to generate professional-grade video and images with natural, coherent motion. Users can input text descriptions, still images, or existing video clips to produce high-fidelity visual content for storytelling, advertising, animation, and gaming applications. The system learns from multimodal data including video, audio, and language to build world models capable of reasoning about motion, context, and physics.
Ray3
Ray3 is Luma AI's advanced reasoning video model launched in September 2025, representing the world's first reasoning video model capable of creating physically accurate videos in studio-grade HDR format. Ray3 features native HDR support with 10-bit, 12-bit, and 16-bit color depth, enabling production-ready fidelity, complex motion, character consistency, and built-in visual reasoning. The model can interpret visual annotations, allowing creatives to draw or scribble on images to direct motion and composition. Ray3 offers Draft Mode for rapid iteration and a Hi-Fi diffusion pass that delivers high-fidelity 4K HDR footage 5x faster and at lower cost.
Genie
Genie is Luma AI's text-to-3D generative model that enables users to create interactive 3D objects and assets from text prompts. The model generates complete 3D scenes with materials, quad mesh retopology, variable polycount, and standard export formats in under 10 seconds. Genie is designed for 3D game developers, product designers, and creative professionals who need to rapidly prototype and iterate on 3D concepts. The model supports photorealistic 3D capture using Gaussian Splatting technology, allowing users to transform smartphone photos into interactive 3D scenes.
Luma Agents
Luma Agents is Luma AI's agentic creative platform powered by its Unified Intelligence models, designed to coordinate multiple AI systems and generate end-to-end creative work across text, images, video, and audio. The agents maintain persistent context across assets, collaborators, and creative iterations, enabling users to steer creative direction through conversation rather than constant re-prompting. Luma Agents are used by global advertising agencies, brands, and studios to automate complex creative workflows, reducing production timelines and costs while maintaining quality standards and brand consistency.
Interactive Scenes
Interactive Scenes is Luma AI's photorealistic 3D capture and rendering platform utilizing Gaussian Splatting technology. It enables users to capture 3D content from smartphone photos or video and create browser and phone-friendly volumetric renders that stream efficiently (8-20MB files) while maintaining ultra-high quality. The platform supports real-time rendering on low-end devices and enables embedding of interactive 3D scenes anywhere on the web. Users can create lifelike 3D captures with natural camera moves and export renders in standard formats for commercial use across cinema, gaming, AR experiences, and web applications.
