Shaping the Future of Work—Together with LumApps + Beekeeper

March 20, 2026

Imagine every employee, from the frontline to the office, rallying around a single digital hub—one that grows with them, makes their day-to-day easier, and inspires them to achieve more. That’s the future we’re championing. Recently named vendors in Gartner’s 2025 Hype Cycle for Digital Workplace Applications, LumApps and Beekeeper are moving forward together, energized by a shared vision for how work can—and should—feel for everyone.

A Singular Mission with Global Reach

Our commitment is simple: create work environments where no one is left out. Whether your team’s at the desk or out in the field, everyone deserves a seamless experience—access to tools, resources, and connections that drive clarity and impact.

This partnership marks a turning point in how organizations engage with their teams. Previously, LumApps delivered push communications to mobile apps, but now, with the Beekeeper merger, we’re able to offer a truly comprehensive experience tailored to the unique needs of frontline and deskless workers. 

From task management and real-time chats to seamless incident reporting, our visionary platform will provide a best-in-class experience—one where both desk workers and deskless employees feel equally equipped and connected. Because in today's workplace, settling for ‘good enough’ is simply not an option when excellence can connect and elevate every team.

That’s why we’re building a single employee hub for all employees, bringing together the best of AI-driven intranets and mobile-first technology to serve over 7 million employees in more than 2,000 organizations globally.

Building on Complementary Strengths

LumApps streamlines communication and collaboration for desk-based teams, integrating with platforms like Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 for a unified digital workplace. Beekeeper brings frontline workforces into focus, helping hospitality, construction, manufacturing, retail, and healthcare workers access information, automate processes, and stay connected—right from their mobile devices.

Cristian Grossmann, CEO and Co-founder of Beekeeper, shares: “Putting the success of both desk and frontline employees at the center unlocks opportunities for everyone to shine.”

Bridging these worlds isn’t just innovative, it’s essential. By combining our expertise, we’re helping a factory worker receive company news as promptly as a desk worker, while a retail manager and an HR director tap into the same smart tools to solve challenges in real time. It’s about tearing down digital barriers and shaping a culture that’s truly inclusive.

Forward-Thinking Innovation

Together, we’re accelerating the pace of progress. Our teams are rolling out features spanning AI-powered task automation, smart content summarization, enterprise analytics, and mobile capabilities that deliver timely information to every corner of your business. Imagine suggestive polling for company sentiment, AI-generated guidance for frontline tasks, and a platform that flexes to your organization’s pulse—all within reach.

Elie Mélois, Chief Product & Technology Officer and co-founder of LumApps, says it best: “We’re pushing the limits of what an intranet platform can achieve, making work more intuitive and personalized for every employee.”

The Road Ahead

Our journey’s just getting started. With our sights set on reaching 100 million users by 2030, we’re building for scale, adaptability, and lasting impact. Customers will see quick wins with new integrations and features, but our focus remains on a seamless, phased evolution that’s grounded in partnership and a shared sense of purpose.

Sébastien Ricard, CEO and co-founder of LumApps, reflects: “Supporting all employees, everywhere, is about more than technology—it’s about making work meaningful and connected for all.”
