We believe the benefits of AI are too great to miss, and the risks too serious to ignore. Whether we like it or not, AI is here to stay, but the current iterations of AI reflect a failure to learn from the past. That’s why we built Lumo — a private AI assistant that only works for you, not the other way around. With no logs kept and every chat encrypted, Lumo keeps your conversations confidential and your data fully under your control — never shared, sold, or stolen.

You can start using Lumo today for free, even if you don’t have a Proton Account. Just go to lumo.proton.me and type in a query.

in systems i've seen with severe encryption, the data is only unencrypted by the actual processing engine. otherwise, its encrypted at the field level, during transit and at rest. yes, you have to trust the processing engine isnt doing anything nefarious, but at some level you have to trust something. proton has a solid history of trust despite the one idiot that works there.

youre not smelting your own processors for example. if youre not forging your own processors then youre just not secure!
