Overview
Lucenia offers an enterprise search and AI retrieval engine built on Lucene, available on-premise or in the customer’s environment. It runs as a decentralized, clusterless mesh with no cloud dependency, keeping data and models inside the customer’s infrastructure to reduce dependency and cost. The platform supports graph, vector, and multimodal search, with meaning-based retrieval, geospatial indexing, and query-time redaction to help meet compliance requirements. Its goal is to provide scalable, compliant, and efficient AI-powered retrieval for large organizations and public-sector teams with sensitive data.
