We are excited to announce that Factory has acquired Lumetric, a YC W24 team building model-agnostic AI systems for high-context workflows.

Factory's mission is to bring autonomy to software engineering. As software eats the world, that work now extends into product, operations, design, and data. With Lumetric, we are deepening our investment in a model-agnostic system that makes autonomous work faster, more reliable, and closer to how ambitious teams already operate.

Why Lumetric?

Ross Cefalu and Davis Palmie built with a simple conviction: high-leverage teams should have AI systems that understand context, operate across tools, and produce useful work.

The team built AI workflows for deal teams, where accuracy, speed, and judgment matter. From our earliest conversations, it was clear Lumetric shared Factory's belief in fast, trustworthy autonomous systems that integrate with existing tools and work across all models available.

Building the autonomous software factory

As Droids take on longer-horizon work, teams need agents that understand intent, operate across tools, validate their work, collaborate with humans, and improve over time. Lumetric's experience building applied AI products is a natural complement to Factory's platform, and the team will help shape the next generation of the Factory Desktop App.
