The story
Founded 2019 in Berlin as a mobile inspection / digital checklist tool for deskless teams, replacing paper and Excel. Positioned as a category alternative to SafetyCulture (iAuditor). Recently pivoted to an AI-native frontline operations platform (AI form creation, AI photo compliance validation, AI translations). No embedded finance ambitions — Lumiform is a pure horizontal SaaS play targeting operations leaders in hospitality, manufacturing, construction, retail, logistics, and facility management.
