Lumosity is a prominent digital cognitive training program developed by Lumos Labs. It was founded in San Francisco in 2005 by Michael Scanlon, Kunal Sarkar, and David Drescher. The platform officially launched in 2007, offering a library of games designed to train core cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and processing speed.

The company operates as a private entity and remains headquartered in San Francisco, California. Its software and algorithms are developed primarily within the United States. Over the years, Lumosity has grown to serve over 100 million users worldwide, transitioning from a web-based service to a mobile-first experience.
