Lunas Edge is a small server that runs Lunas on site, so the clinic keeps working when the internet or the cloud doesn’t. Lunas Edge AI sits beside it and keeps consultation audio and transcripts in the building.
Lunas Edge is in early access. The hardware on this page is the design as it stands, and it may change before it is generally available.
Both boxes, what each one does, and what keeps working when the internet drops. Narrated, with captions.
Neither replaces Lunas in the cloud. The server carries the building when the connection can’t, and the AI box does the listening and drafting on site.
A quiet business mini PC that runs Lunas inside the building — or a tower server, for a hospital.
A compact AI box with large shared memory and a GPU, sitting beside the server.
Inside the building, every screen keeps talking to Lunas Edge. Changes wait on the box and go up to the cloud when the line comes back.
Try it: switch the internet off and on. Blue dots are people’s work, green is syncing to the cloud, teal is the AI box.
An illustration of how Lunas Edge behaves, not a live view of a clinic.
Each part is there so that one thing going wrong doesn’t stop the clinic: a drive, the power, the AI box, or the line to the cloud.
The parts shown are the design as it stands, and may change.
AI moduleIn the AI box: a GPU with large shared memory, for speech-to-text and an open language model.
The serverRuns Lunas for every screen in the building.
Encrypted diskWhat the box stores is encrypted at rest.
Mirrored drivesTwo drives, one copy. If one fails, the other carries on.
UPSBattery backup through short power cuts.
Three steps, from the box arriving to the clinic working on it.
Power and a network cable. The box reaches out to Lunas on its own, so nothing has to be opened on your firewall.
An administrator claims the box with its code, and it joins your organisation — and only yours.
It copies down your organisation’s records, then keeps in step with Lunas in the cloud.
The point of a box in the building is what it does on a bad day, so here is every bad day we plan for.
Everyone in the building keeps working on Lunas Edge. Their changes sync to the cloud when the line is back.
The same: the box carries the clinic until it can reach the cloud again.
Staff open the cloud copy of Lunas from any connection and carry on there.
Its mirror carries on with the same data.
The UPS keeps the box running through short cuts.
The scribe says so and stops. Everything else carries on, and what the clinician writes is kept and can be signed.
We’ll set Lunas Edge up with a small number of clinics and hospitals first. Tell us about your site and how your connection behaves, and we’ll tell you honestly whether Edge fits.
