Luxin
Start with one thing

A small firm that builds, not a consultancy that advises.

Two partners, engineers brought in per project, and a system we run our own company on.

Why Luxin exists.

Luxin, an AI consulting firm, exists because the tools got good enough that a business does not need an enterprise budget to use them. Somebody still has to sit down, learn how the work actually happens, and connect the two. That is the job. We do that job, and then we hand over what we built.

Luxin is a Nevada corporation. Truckee / Reno–Tahoe, with clients in the Bay Area and Orange County.

From Marc.

I started with the business I knew best: my dad’s engineering firm, where every proposal was typed by hand. The agent that drafts them now was one of the first systems I built inside someone else’s business.

I run Luxin on the same kind of system I sell. My mornings start with a brief an agent wrote, and nothing client-facing leaves without my approval. That is the demo in every meeting.

The rule I care most about is the boring one: nothing goes out without you. Everything else follows from it.

The people

Who you actually get.

  • Marc Bender

    Founder

    Marc scopes and sells every engagement, and builds the small systems himself. He is in the room for every conversation. When you hire Luxin, he is who you get.

    • About a year and a half of AI and automation consulting, and freelance web and AI work through college before that.
    • Went full-time on Luxin in August 2026.
    • Runs his own company on the system he sells.
  • Pranav Kantamaneni

    Co-founder

    Pranav studied computer science and AI at USC and works at a cybersecurity company. He reviews how every build handles your data and leads the larger builds.

    • Leads the larger builds.
    • Reviews every build’s data handling before it goes live.
  • And the engineers behind them.

    Luxin brings in engineers per project rather than carrying a payroll. Each one is paid a fixed price for their piece. You pay for the work, not for overhead.

In the owner’s words.

  • Really impressive work! From the first call I had with Marc, I could tell I was working with someone who knows what he’s doing.

How we work.

  • Builds go on your accounts, under your logins.

  • Nothing sends without a person approving it.

  • Running costs are passed through at cost.

  • Engagements run one to three months, not open-ended.

  • Every price is fixed before work starts.

  • It is documented, and you own it.

The work has been in seven kinds of business.

  • Law firms
  • Real estate
  • Plumbing and trades
  • Engineering
  • Wholesale and e-commerce
  • Financial technology
  • Sales teams

We work inside the tools you already use.

  • Claude
  • Microsoft 365
  • Google Workspace
  • QuickBooks
  • Practice Panther
  • Patriot Software
  • Top Producer
  • Dropbox
  • n8n
  • Supabase
  • GitHub

Tell me what’s eating the most time.

Thirty minutes, no deck. You describe how the work actually happens, and I tell you plainly whether there is something worth building.
