About Skylum Software

Hi! We are Skylum

Our innovative technology empowers photographers, allowing them to seamlessly carry out professional editing techniques, while encouraging creative freedom. For us, it's not just about developing software, but making photo editing enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

We created Luminar Neo
Our flagship product is Luminar Neo, a photo editing software application for Windows and macOS that enables millions of photographers worldwide to edit photos with the power of AI. Luminar Neo has over 20 AI-based features to streamline the photographer’s editing workflow. It’s a user-friendly app with an intuitive interface that has won numerous awards, including the Red Dot Brands & Communication Design award and the TIPA World Awards.
