Why we built Lumen
Joining a trial used to mean phone calls and waiting.
You would hear about a study, fill out a form, and wait to find out where you stood. Lumen puts the first steps in your hands, and keeps you in the loop after that.
Before Lumen
With Lumen
Wherever you are in your trial
One app, from the first question to your last visit.
Find a study that fits you.
Browse studies near you and see what each one involves before you commit to anything.
- Studies near you, with the condition, the site, how many visits, how far away it is and what the study pays.
- Pre-screen from your phone. A short chat in the app, a few minutes, right where you are.
- Prefer to talk? Add a voice note instead of typing your medications and conditions.
Confirm your visit in one tap.
No more phone tag. Lumen tells you what is coming up and what is needed from you.
- Confirm your visit from the banner or your notifications.
- Time does not work? Pick a new date and time from the open slots for your pre-screen and screening visits.
- Reminders before each visit, and a tap takes you straight to the right screen.
Your whole trial, in one place.
Once you are in a study, Lumen keeps the details together so you do not have to.
- Your journey, your visits, and where to report a side effect.
- Every payment you have received, visit by visit, right there in the app.
- Private tracking tools: a daily mood check-in, a symptom diary and cycle tracking. They belong to you.

Your information is protected.
Lumen follows HIPAA standards, and your records are handled under the same rules as everything else your study site holds. There is no password to remember: each time you sign in we send a fresh code, and you can turn on Face ID or your fingerprint.
