???? The Lumos Story
Apple changed the world with the App Store by making all kinds of consumer tech a click away. Lumos is doing that, but for all the apps a company uses. In short, we are building a company’s AppHQ to manage all apps in one place.
Here’s how it works: You go to the Lumos AppStore, request your app of choice, your manager approves the request in Slack and your account is created — instantly. No long IT ticket queues anymore. What if you stop using the app? Lumos automatically detects that and removes your license, saving the company money and improving security. In its essence, Lumos is creating the meta app for all apps.
