Amit Jain co-founded Luma AI in September 2021, bringing experience in 3D computer vision, camera systems, and machine learning from his prior work at Apple. As CEO, Jain has positioned Luma around multimodal creative AI - tools spanning video, 3D, and world models - rather than a narrower single-format generative AI product.
Jain led Luma through a $900 million Series C in November 2025 backed by Saudi Arabia's HUMAIN investment vehicle, funding specifically directed toward large-scale world-model training that extends the company's ambitions beyond video generation into broader spatial AI capability.
