Founded in 2022, Lit Thinking is proud to be at the forefront of creating safer, healthier, and more productive indoor environments.

Our Software.

Seamless Integration &
Continuous Monitoring with

IoT Connectivity.

Visium™ isn’t just a device; it’s a smart solution for a modern world. Visium’s™ connection to the cloud allows it to customize the operating mode and continuously calculate and report the proprietary Safe Air Score, assuring round-the-clock safety. The Lit Thinking™ App enables easy device control, status monitoring, automation, and actionable feedback, available anywhere 24/7.

Lit Thinking's Proprietary

Safe Air Score.

The Safe Air Score by Lit Thinking provides real-time insights into the sanitization level of your overall environment, ensuring your indoor air is not just healthy, but also safe. Our Visium devices utilize filtered far-UVC technology to sanitize the air in occupied spaces, monitor room occupancy, and provide an indoor air quality score.

When a space is occupied, the proprietary Safe Air Score actively estimates how the Visium devices are safeguarding the occupants by reducing the overall background pathogen burden in the air, considering factors like room size, existing ventilation, number of devices, and assuming the presence of pathogens due to the occupants.

In unoccupied spaces, the Safe Air Score will gradually increase, showcasing the effectiveness of our sanitization process. Once the Safe Air Score reaches 99, indicating optimal sanitization, the devices automatically shut off to preserve lamp life, only reactivating when the space is occupied again.

The Safe Air Score feature not only estimates sanitization in real-time, but also extends the longevity of the devices, making the Lit Thinking system smart, energy efficient, and economical for maintaining safe indoor air.
