Lumana is a hybrid-cloud AI video analytics platform. It runs on a small edge appliance in your environment, and works with any standards-based camera (ONVIF or RTSP). HTS is the partner that designs, installs, and runs the deployment — so you get the AI without the operational lift.
HTS is paid the same regardless of which partner we recommend. Here's when Lumana is the right answer.
You have an Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, or other standards-based camera fleet, and you want AI analytics without ripping them out. Lumana is camera-agnostic on ONVIF and RTSP. You keep the cameras, you add the AI.
You don't want a cloud-only platform, but you also don't want a pure on-prem VMS. Lumana is hybrid: the edge appliance (Lumana Core) runs the AI inference, the cloud handles management and remote access. You get edge responsiveness with cloud convenience.
Lumana's defensible claim is "up to 90% fewer false alerts" versus traditional motion-based VMS systems. The AI is trained to recognize what matters (people, vehicles, specific behaviors) and ignore what doesn't (shadows, headlights, trees).
Lumana ships as a tightly integrated stack. HTS handles the design, install, and ongoing operations.
A small on-premises appliance that replaces the customer's NVR. Runs the AI inference locally, streams to the cloud for management and remote access. No cloud round-trip for the AI.
Cloud-based management, alerting, mobile apps, and remote viewing. Customers don't have to VPN into the appliance to view cameras — the cloud handles the connectivity.
The actual AI: person / vehicle detection, behavior recognition, scene analytics, and the customer-configurable alert rules. Trained on a broad real-world dataset; defensible claims are "up to 90% fewer false alerts" and "as low as 2-second detection-to-alert."

No. Lumana is hybrid-cloud. The Lumana Core appliance runs on-premises and replaces the customer's NVR. AI inference happens on the edge. The cloud is used for management, alerting, and remote access.
No. Lumana is camera-agnostic on standards-based cameras (ONVIF and RTSP), but is not compatible with Verkada, which is a closed system. If you have a Verkada fleet, the right path is Verkada's own analytics. If you have standards-based cameras from Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, Dahua, or others, Lumana is the right analytics layer.
Lumana is priced annually per camera, and is bundled with the Lumana Core edge appliance. All features are included. HTS wraps the Lumana license with the managed-service fee. Talk to HTS for a current quote.
Lumana is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and NDAA Section 889 compliant. HIPAA controls are claimed. Lumana is NOT FedRAMP authorized as of the latest review. For federal buyers, talk to HTS about deployment scoping and the Carahsoft public-sector procurement channel.
Pick 8-16 cameras. HTS ships the Lumana Core, configures the deployment, and has the AI running in days. Same-week pilots available.
