The ecosystem for AI‑native finance
Discover the partners, applications, expertise and community helping finance teams build and operate differently with Light.
A finance platform is only as powerful as the people building on it.
Light Universe is the ecosystem around the platform: the implementation partners who bring Light to new countries, the builders who extend it with applications and agents, the finance professionals who share what works, and the customers who push all of it further.
Together they turn one platform into something no single company could build: local expertise in every market, solutions for every industry, and a community that compounds what each member learns.
Together, we're building the future of AI-native finance. We'd love you to build it with us.
Every market
Implementation and consulting partners take Light into their countries, with the local languages, statutory requirements and compliance expertise each market demands.
Every industry
Industry experts and builders create the applications, workflows and compliance packs that make Light native to their sector, built by the people who know it best.
Multi-entity consolidation, revenue recognition and investor reporting for companies scaling across borders faster than their finance team can hire.
Cost of goods, inventory-heavy ledgers and multi-site statutory reporting, with partners who already know how a manufacturer closes its month.
High transaction volumes, multi-channel revenue and VAT across every market you sell in, reconciled continuously rather than at quarter end.
Project and client profitability, work in progress and billing schedules, with revenue recognised as the work is actually delivered.
Long-running projects, milestone billing, retentions and subcontractor payments held together on one live ledger.
Multi-site operations, tight approval controls and the audit trails that regulated care providers are expected to produce on demand.
Regulated reporting, segregation of duties and continuously monitored controls, with the evidence auditors ask for already assembled.
Fleet and fuel costs, cross-border VAT and country per-diem rules applied automatically on every journey and every claim.
Daily takings across every site, payroll-heavy cost bases and seasonal swings, consolidated in real time instead of weekly.
Capital projects, asset accounting and long-cycle revenue reported under multiple standards at the same time.
Seasonal cycles, subsidy accounting and commodity-linked revenue, with local statutory compliance built in by regional partners.

If you can describe it, you can build it
No proprietary language to learn. No framework to adopt. No four-week review queue. Agents build the app with you in plain English, agents review it when you submit, and approval puts it straight into the App Store. Idea to live, in a day.
Say what it should do
Describe the app in plain English, the way you would explain it to a colleague. There is no SDK to learn and no vocabulary we invented for you to memorise. Ask for a sandbox and start the same day.
An agent builds it with you
The agent writes it against Light's open API and live ledger events, wires up the data and tests it in your sandbox while you watch. You steer. It does the typing.
Instant agentic reviews
Submit, and an agent checks it for security and data handling in minutes. Approved apps go straight into the App Store. No queue, no four-week wait. You set the price, and every team that installs it is recurring revenue.
Built together, in one day
Many of these apps started at a Light event. Finance Hackathons pair finance teams with Light specialists and AI builders to ship a working app in a day, and the Builders Club meets regularly to build in Light with our team. Bring a problem, leave with an app.
