We're looking for people to do real work with.
Not endorsements. Each of these relationships involves actual work on both sides, and each has its own expectations, obligations and disclosure rules.
Different relationships, different rules.
A household testing a pre-production appliance, a chef building a public demonstration, a university running a study and a journalist writing a review need entirely different things from us — and owe entirely different things in return.
So this section separates them rather than routing everyone to one form.
- Founder program
- Households willing to run real cycles on pre-production hardware and report honestly.
- Lighthouse partners
- Professional or cultural settings where a deployment has public demonstration value.
- Research collaboration
- Universities, labs and scientists who can answer questions we cannot answer alone.
- Creators & media
- Writers, reviewers and creators — with editorial independence and full disclosure.
What is actually open right now.
- Founder program — accepting interest
- We are collecting applications for the first cohort of households.
- Lighthouse — case by case
- Discussed individually; nothing is announced before a project record exists.
- Research — open to conversations
- We are arranging formal collaborations. No institution is named before a signed agreement.
- Creators & media — open
- Product facts, imagery and interviews available on request.
A small group of households running real growing cycles on pre-production hardware — what participation involves, what you get, and what we ask in return.
The full participation terms for LUYA Founder 100: Founder price, participation period, the seven Founder Missions, content permissions, honest-review policy, privacy, and dispute resolution and arbitration.
Chefs, nutritionists, clinics, schools and specialised environments where a LUYA deployment produces something publicly useful — and is documented honestly, including limits.
Questions LUYA cannot answer alone, what we can contribute to a study, and the terms we work under — including independence, data handling and publication rights.
How LUYA works with journalists, reviewers and creators: editorial independence, disclosure rules, available materials, and what we will not ask you to say.
