About Us
In early 2020, like so many others, Lucus Labs' business was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead of doing just enough specialized R&D to "keep the lights on", we felt it was time to make a transformative change for the successful future and longevity of our company.
One area we realized needed re-evaluating was in the very products we use to run our own day-to-day business. Research, and our own first-hand experience, taught us that companies need on average 10 different products in order to operate efficiently. These products range from accounting & financials to contact & customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), HR, inventory, assets, product tracking, video conferencing, and everything in between.
With further research, we learned there isn't a "one size fits all" solution available, at least not one that is also affordable for and targeted toward small businesses. This discovery led to a pivotal decision: Lucus Labs would pivot into what it is today - a company dedicated to developing technologies that simplify the fundamentals of small businesses, giving them a competitive advantage to stay relevant and to grow their business without needing to also grow their technologies, and to do so at an affordable price point.
As we embarked on this journey, we made another strategic decision that would define our approach: we became an AI-first company. This wasn't about jumping on a trend or implementing artificial intelligence for its own sake. We recognized that AI fundamentally changes how business can be done - it can automate complex processes, provide intelligent insights, and create seamless integrations between systems that traditionally operated in silos.
Today, all of our products center and revolve around artificial intelligence because we've seen firsthand how it transforms operations. AI doesn't just add features to our solutions; it makes them inherently smarter, more efficient, and more intuitive for small business owners who don't have time to become experts in multiple software platforms. By building AI into the foundation of everything we create, we're able to deliver the comprehensive, affordable business solutions that all companies have been waiting for.
