I’m Luke Hermida, founder of Hermida Technologies. I design software, automation, AI-assisted workflows, and connected systems around the way businesses actually operate—not around the limitations of generic tools. My goal is technology that feels calm on the surface and exceptionally capable underneath.
I’m interested in the space between software, infrastructure, operations, and human experience. My work focuses on replacing disconnected tools and repetitive processes with systems that feel coherent, reliable, and unusually clear.
Hermida Technologies builds intelligent business software, connected client experiences, automation, operational systems, and technology infrastructure. Everything is designed as one evolving foundation rather than another pile of disconnected tools.
Visit hermida.appMy work spans enterprise software, AI-assisted workflows, performance systems, client experiences, and practical automation.
A connected software platform for client relationships, projects, operational workflows, communication, and intelligent business systems.
An exploration of fast, local-first computing and practical performance infrastructure built around responsiveness and control.
An AI-assisted receptionist and operational interface designed to make business communication more responsive and organized.
Local AI, automation, device integration, identity, security, and software experiments that inform larger product systems.
I approach technology as an integrated discipline: understanding the real workflow, designing the right experience, and engineering the foundation underneath it.
Purpose-built applications, portals, dashboards, and operational interfaces.
Connected workflows that remove repetitive work and improve execution.
Calm, deliberate experiences shaped around clarity, hierarchy, and real use.
Useful AI systems grounded in actual operational context rather than novelty.
Reliable technical foundations designed for security, performance, and growth.
Translating business friction into an actionable, maintainable technology direction.
My approach is practical: reduce unnecessary compute, extend the useful life of hardware, keep operations paperless by default, and design software that does not waste people’s time or infrastructure. These are working practices—not claims of zero impact.
Generated worldwide in 2022—evidence that extending hardware life and designing for reuse both matter.

Local-first experiments, repair-minded choices, and reuse where practical before adding new infrastructure.
Digital proposals, project delivery, documentation, and communication reduce routine material use.
A small, distributed operating model limits unnecessary office overhead and avoidable travel.
Software and cloud infrastructure still consume energy. I’ll describe current practices honestly, measure more as the work grows, and publish specific progress only when it can be supported.
Read Hermida Technologies’ environmental approach ↗I build AI-assisted systems with a clear boundary: software can organize, summarize, detect patterns, and draft useful next steps, while people retain authority over access, approvals, communication, and consequential decisions. Privacy, explainability, and restraint are product features, not footnotes added after launch.
A system should make the work easier to understand.
Connected systems outperform collections of isolated tools.
Automation and AI should remove friction, not create noise.
Good architecture leaves room for the organization to grow.
