Company profile

researched Aug 2026

LumiBot is a company offering a video-based AI copilot for real-time hand-tracking in manual manufacturing environments. The system ingests video of operators' hand movements and is trained to follow a customer's specific work instructions, supporting operators as they carry out manual assembly and production tasks.

The product is delivered through a staged pilot process. LumiBot first consults with a prospective customer to identify suitable workflows, reviews the existing work instructions and helps set up cameras on the line. It then builds a custom copilot demonstration using video of that customer's operators. In the final stage the copilot goes live in operations, with continuous fine-tuning intended to reach an agreed accuracy target.

Business model

LumiBot deploys a customer-specific AI copilot built from the client's own operator video and work instructions, moving prospects from a free workflow consultation through a custom demo to a live deployment that is fine-tuned over time.

▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market

Market position

LumiBot positions its product as a real-time AI copilot for manual manufacturing operations, oriented around faster and error-free execution of manual work.

Technology

The platform applies video AI and computer vision to track operators' hand movements in real time. Custom models are created by feeding a customer's operator hand-movement video into the copilot, which is then fine-tuned after go-live to reach target accuracy.

Go-to-market

Entry is via a free workflow-suitability consultation that includes a walkthrough of the customer's work instructions and camera setup, followed by a custom copilot demo and then a production go-live.

Manufacturers running manual, operator-performed production and assembly workflows.
