LTX Insights
What We Do
At our core is LTX- an open-source generative video model built to deliver expressive, high-fidelity video at unmatched speed. It powers our own products and a growing ecosystem of creative partners worldwide. We're one of the few companies globally building our own multimodal foundation models, competing directly with the world's largest AI labs. Startup speed. Experienced leadership. A product people already love. Backed by a proven business model and unicorn-scale resources. We were founded by four computer-science PhDs who never stopped thinking like researchers. That mindset still defines us: deep technical ambition, a bias toward building, and a belief that the best creative tools haven't been invented yet. The team has done it before. Lightricks' suite of apps, including the famous Facetune, has over 500 million downloads worldwide and has won numerous prestigious awards, including Apple's App of the Year, the Apple Design Award and both Apple and Google Play's Best of the Year. What makes us "us" - At LTX, innovation starts with people, not buzzwords. We move fast, speak plainly, and take real ownership. Impact here comes from passion, curiosity, and initiative, and from raising the bar for yourself and the people around you. We believe the best work happens together. The culture here is genuinely collaborative, people share knowledge, back each other up, and win as a team. When things click, everyone feels it. You'll have what you need to do your best work: unrestricted access to compute, tools, and resources. We're AI-native in practice- first access to the latest models, real infrastructure, and a team that learns together in real time. We move at the pace of AI, not just in what we ship, but in how we think and work. Priorities shift, the market moves, and we move with it. If you thrive on change, adapt quickly, and want to be part of a team that keeps up, you'll feel right at home. We build, break, iterate, repeat. What matters here is how you think, what you're curious about, and where you want to go.
LTX Offices
Hybrid Workspace
Employees engage in a combination of remote and on-site work.
We work hybrid. There are set in-office days built into the week, and the rest is remote. We design the mix intentionally, because in-person time makes the work better.
