Luma

Luma is a modern invitation platform that makes creating an event as fast, simple, and community-focused as possible. Unlike the heavy admin panels of classic event software, it walks the user through a single-page flow: a few fields are filled in, a link is shared, and the event goes live. This approach has made Luma an indispensable tool, especially for community organizers.

Organizing a meetup or a small conference traditionally required separate event software, a separate email marketing tool, a separate form service, and sometimes an additional ticketing platform. Luma reduces this fragmented setup to a single page, cutting operational overhead. It lets small communities manage many events with almost no engineering effort, and the same platform naturally extends into more advanced modules such as ticket sales, email automation, and community membership infrastructure whenever they're needed.

At its core is a simple, single-page event creation form. RSVP management covers approval settings, capacity limits, and waitlists, while paid ticketing supports multiple ticket tiers with automatic payment collection. Organizers can build a lasting community profile with its own follower base, and email automation handles reminders and post-event follow-up messages automatically. Attendees can add the event to their Google, Apple, or Outlook calendars with a single click.

Luma is actively used by AI communities, startup ecosystem organizers, content creators, creative communities, university clubs, and media brands. Rather than the scale offered by large event software, it's the primary choice for those looking for speed and simplicity tailored to small and mid-sized events.

Luma is essentially free to use for free events; its revenue model relies on commissions from paid ticket sales and subscriptions to advanced community features. The platform runs on the web and has native mobile apps for iOS and Android.
