Lucas Miranda is the Founder of Reflex, a physical AI inference platform that gives robots real-time access to datacenter-scale AI models via a simple API call.

Lucas studied at Concordia University, held a quantitative finance role, and conducted research at Stanford before leaving both to immerse himself in the startup world, participating in 15 different hackathons.

Lucas bet early that onboard GPUs strapped to robots are the core bottleneck holding back physical AI, and that moving inference to the cloud would shift the entire cost and capability curve.

Reflex is part of the HF0 accelerator and has partnered with industry leaders including Nvidia and Boston Dynamics, with Lucas leading the company from San Francisco.

In a single month at the Lightyear residency, Reflex grew from $0 to $700K MRR and built a pipeline of $60M, delivering inference that is roughly 90x cheaper and 100x faster than on-device alternatives.
