RESEARCH_&_DEVELOPMENT
Evidence-Based AI Products That Prove Impact.
We build and validate AI systems where outcomes are the primary metric of success: cognition, behavior change, and real-time communication. We move beyond simple automation to engineer "just-in-time" adaptive interventions that are rigorously stress-tested for reliability and then hardened into deployable, enterprise-grade products.
Memoria AI
A mobile, privacy-first, voice-based AI companion for older adults that combats loneliness and supports memory through multi-channel, personalized interaction.
- Accessible via landline, mobile, SMS, and web
- Removes technology barriers for aging in place
- Multi-channel personalized interaction
- Foundation for cognitive health support
- Privacy-first voice-based companionship
// Our Approach
WHAT_R&D_MEANS_AT_LUMINAR
Not "research for research's sake."
We run applied experiments with measurable targets. Every project has defined success criteria, failure modes, and a path from prototype to production.

Sober Bob
24/7 adaptive coaching built around evidence-based behavioral principles (CBT/DBT-informed
structures).
- Proactive support during high-risk moments
- Personalized triggers and guardrails
- Escalation and safety protocols for sensitive scenarios
Neural Bridge
Live translation and real-time conversation flow for cross-language operations. Designed to preserve intent and context across borders.
- Low-latency interpretation for human-to-human and agent-to-human
- Multilingual knowledge access
- Market expansion enablement (support, sales, service delivery)
// Methodology
HOW_WE_BUILD
Evidence Framing
Start with a testable hypothesis. Define what "better" means—KPIs, guardrails, and unacceptable failure conditions.
Evaluation Harness
Scenario libraries (edge + normal cases), regression tests to prevent model drift, and human review loops where needed.
Safety + Governance
Policy boundaries, auditability (what happened, when, why), privacy controls, and deployment constraints.
Product Hardening
Turn prototypes into real systems: monitoring, cost controls, latency tuning, and operational playbooks.
// Deliverables
WHAT_YOU_GET
Validated Prototypes
Working systems with measurable results, not just demos.
Clear Risk Profile
Where it fails, how it's contained, and what the boundaries are.
Deployment Roadmap
Clear path from experiment → pilot → deployable product.
