What you give up either way
- Proprietary Luma models (Ray3.2, Uni-1) and research-driven model improvements
- Integrated high-fidelity production video quality and credits pricing tied to Luma models
- Enterprise features (SSO, usage analytics, dedicated fine-tuning) and team billing/credit pooling
- Polished agent orchestration and built-in multimodal consistency across formats
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Luma Dream Machine, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
