aid: lumilens name: Lumilens description: >- Lumilens is a San Jose, California photonics company building optical interconnect silicon for AI data centers. Founded in 2024 by Ankur Singla (previously Contrail Systems and Volterra) with Ted Schmidt, Samuel Liu, Ritesh Kapahi and Dave Friedman, it designs co-packaged optics (CPO) and near-packaged optics (NPO) devices that let hyperscalers replace copper interconnect with fiber at 800Gb/s, 1.6Tb/s and beyond, attacking the connectivity bottleneck that now limits GPU cluster scaling more than compute does. The company emerged from stealth in August 2026 with more than $900M raised — including a $700M Series C at a $5.51B valuation led by Atreides Management, Bain Capital Ventures, Meritech, Seligman Ventures and Spark Capital — and says it is already shipping production optical interconnect into hyperscale AI data centers under a multi-billion-dollar customer agreement. Its product is physical silicon sold direct to a small set of very large buyers; as of this profile it publishes no developer program, API, SDK or machine-readable contract of any kind, and lumilens.com is still an interim recruiting and news site. url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/lumilens/refs/heads/main/apis.yml deliveryModel: model: saas open_source: false commercial: true callable_host: false label: Hosted service · you call their endpoint confidence: medium source: - pricing generated: '2026-08-28' method: derived image: https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/68aa10a8e6f4d59001f9f05d/68b6c01786ae316e23307b57_Favicon-256x256.png x-type: company x-source: harvest:secondary-market x-source-url: https://forgeglobal.com/lumilens_stock/ x-tier: stub x-tier-reason: harvest specificationVersion: '0.20' created: '2026-08-25' modified: '2026-08-25' tags: - Company - Photonics - Optical Networking - Interconnects - Semiconductors - Silicon Photonics - Data Centers - Artificial Intelligence - Hardware apis: [] maintainers: - FN: Kin Lane email: kin@apievangelist.com - FN: APIs.json email: info@apis.io common: - type: DomainSecurity url: security/lumilens-domain-security.yml - type: Website url: https://lumilens.com/ - type: Blog url: https://lumilens.com/news-insights - type: TermsOfService url: https://lumilens.com/terms-of-use - type: PrivacyPolicy url: https://lumilens.com/privacy - type: LLMsTxt url: llms/lumilens-llms.txt - type: Plans url: plans/lumilens-plans-pricing.yml x-contract-discovery: checked: '2026-08-25' verdict: no-published-contract note: >- STEP 0b contract discovery run against every host this company is known to control. No OpenAPI/Swagger, no GraphQL endpoint, no MCP server, no AsyncAPI, no A2A agent card, no WSDL and no .proto exist anywhere. There are no apis[] entries and no baseURL because there is no API: lumilens.com is a Webflow interim recruiting and news site whose own footer "Blog" link is hidden and 404s, and every developer-shaped subdomain is NXDOMAIN. The GitHub organization github.com/Lumilens exists (created 2025-09-24) but publishes zero public repositories and zero public members, and the company's site never links to it, so no GitHubOrganization pointer is claimed. lumilens.vercel.app is an older stealth-era site of the same company (footer "(c) 2024 Lumilens Inc.") and was probed too; it publishes nothing machine-readable either.
