Overview

Lightricks is an Israeli company founded in Jerusalem in 2013 by six researchers from the Hebrew University, which built its business on mobile creative tools long before generative AI became mainstream. Facetune made it one of the earliest photo editing applications to reach mass consumer scale, followed by Photoleap and Videoleap for image and video creation on phones. The company has since moved into generative video with LTX Studio, a storyboard-to-film production environment, and released LTX-Video as open weights, positioning itself between consumer creative tools and professional production workflows.
