About Lumo
Lumo is an agricultural technology company focused on optimizing irrigation through intelligent automation. Founded to solve the inefficiencies of traditional irrigation systems, Lumo empowers farmers to reduce water waste, improve yield outcomes, and simplify planning with real-time data. Lumo’s sustainable mission aligns with responsible water usage and data-driven farming practices.
Starting with irrigation, Lumo envisions building a full-spectrum smart farm intelligence platform. Their roadmap includes predictive irrigation planning, weather-aware automation, mobile interfaces, and even image-based anomaly detection—all powered by cutting-edge AI infrastructure.
Challenge
Lumo wanted to provide farmers with intuitive, real-time access to critical irrigation data and system status. The project focused on a business-led transformation of irrigation management using generative AI. The inability to dynamically adapt irrigation strategies to real-time weather or flow anomalies resulted in suboptimal water usage and delayed responses, often requiring manual support intervention. With the addition of an AI chatbot and real-time analytics, modularity and cloud-native scalability became critical. The company turned to kloia for expertise in decomposing the application into modern microservices and integrating AWS-native solutions.
The growing demand for real-time analytics, user-friendly interfaces, and intelligent automation revealed two key needs:
Modernize the architecture to be modular, observable, and scalable
Introduce a natural language interface powered by generative AI for seamless farmer interaction
