View company profile

Lucidworks began its journey in 2007, initially under the name Lucid Imagination, before rebranding to Lucidworks in 2012. The company was founded by a team of technical visionaries including Marc Krellenstein, Grant Ingersoll, Erik Hatcher, and Yonik Seeley, with guidance from advisor Doug Cutting. From its inception, Lucidworks was driven by a simple yet powerful belief: finding information shouldn't be a difficult task. This core principle has guided the company's evolution as it set out to transform how organizations access and utilize their data. The early years focused on pioneering open-source search technologies, laying a foundation built on Apache Lucene and Apache Solr.

Over the next decade, Lucidworks consistently pushed the boundaries of enterprise search, transforming complex data into actionable insights. This dedication to innovation led to the development of their flagship platform, Lucidworks Fusion, first released in September 2014. Fusion integrated Apache Solr with Apache Spark, providing a robust platform for building sophisticated search and discovery applications. The company's growth was further accelerated by strategic acquisitions, such as Twigkit in 2017, which enhanced user experience capabilities and was integrated into Fusion as App Studio. Lucidworks has a history of partnering with major organizations, like Reddit in 2017, to revolutionize their search functionalities. The company has also been recognized by industry analysts like Forrester and Gartner, underscoring its leadership in the search and discovery space. Today, Lucidworks continues to empower global B2B and B2C commerce, knowledge management, and product discovery with its AI-powered search solutions, helping businesses turn their data into a strategic advantage and deliver exceptional digital experiences.
