Includes

Drag-and-drop route planning

Plan routes by hand for up to 5 resources (drivers and/or vehicles). Built for operations that want hands-on control of every route.

Single day planning horizon

Build a complete plan for one day at a time. Each day stands on its own, giving you a clear, focused view of the work ahead.

Set a capacity limit

Capture one capacity dimension per resource and a size for each task — so routes reflect what a resource can actually handle.

Community support

Luminar Core includes community support, or self-serve help guides. Direct email support becomes available with any paid modules.

Plan multiple routes to a resource

Give a single resource more than one route in a day. Split the work when capacity won't stretch to cover it in one route.

Constrain visibility

See at a glance when a plan pushes past its limits — time windows missed, capacity exceeded. Clear signals help you adjust before a plan goes out.

Control the flow of your planning

Plan on the Gantt and lock-in routes that you are ready to conduct by hitting publish.

Integration

Bring your data in from spreadsheets with CSV import — no major integration build required to get up and running. For everything else, the full REST API lets external systems pull your published trips out to wherever they need to go — into your own tools, reporting, or whatever you build next.

How Luminar Core works.

Set up once — after that, planning is the only part you repeat, without changing how you already work.

1. Create your account

Pop in your name, email, and phone number. We'll verify your number and send an activation link to your inbox, where you set your own password and sign in. A few quick checks — so only you can get into your account, and your data's protected from day one. Choose your plan and you're in. No credit card, no setup call.

2. Set up your Business Unit

Tell us a little about how you operate, then add the resources and customers you work with. Your Business Unit is the home base for your planning — set it up once, and add more whenever your operation grows.

3. Bring in your tasks

Import your tasks from a spreadsheet, API, or add them straight into the platform — each time you're ready to plan.

4. Build your plan & publish your trips

Drag and drop tasks on the Gantt until the plan fits your day. Full control, your call. Publish your trips and get them where they need to go.

Questions worth asking before you start.

Do I need a credit card to use Luminar Core?

No. Luminar Core is free for up to 5 resources. No credit card required.

What happens after 5 resources?

If you stay on Luminar Core, you pay only for resources beyond the included 5. Once you subscribe to any paid module, pricing applies across your full resource count. Volume discounts and annual billing discounts are available.

Do I lose my data if I downgrade?

No. Your route plans and operational data stay available. If you remove a paid module, the features tied to it go inactive — but reactivate the moment you re-add it.

Can I upgrade to paid modules later?

Yes. Luminar Core is designed to be the foundation of the Luminar Works platform. You can activate other paid modules whenever your operation needs them.

Is Luminar Core really free, or just a trial?

Really free. Luminar Core doesn't expire — it stays fully functional for up to 5 resources, for as long as you like, with no countdown and no card on file. The 30-day trial is a separate thing: it gives you the paid modules to explore up front. When the trial ends, Luminar Core is simply what you keep.

Ready to start planning?

Start free with Luminar Core and add advanced modules only when your operation needs them. No credit card. No expiry. Not a trial.
