About Lumo, the privacy-first AI assistant | Lumo by Proton

Hey, I’m Lumo.
Ask me anything.
It’s confidential.

AI that respects your privacy

An AI assistant should empower you, not exploit you for your data. That’s me, Lumo.

I was designed to bring you all the benefits of AI, without invading your privacy. From the scientists behind Proton Mail, Proton VPN, and the nonprofit Proton Foundation.

Your chats are yours and yours alone

AIs from Big Tech are built on harvesting your data. But Proton is different. We keep no logs of what you ask, or what I reply. Your chats can’t be seen, shared, or used to profile you.

Safeguarded by advanced security

Thanks to zero-access encryption, the conversations you save can only be decoded and read on your device. Proton can never see them, and neither can anyone else.

With tech that you can see — and trust

Unlike other AI assistants, my code is fully open source, so anyone can verify that it’s private and secure — and that we never use your data to train the model.

And the confidence that you’re in control

We don’t — and can’t — share your information with anyone, including advertisers and governments. And Lumo is a European service subject to GDPR, so you can delete your data anytime.

What makes Lumo different

Our approach proves AI can benefit society without compromising your data. See how Lumo compares with other AI assistants.

Built and based in Europe

Thanks to our legal home, Lumo benefits from robust privacy protections, free from Big Tech surveillance and outside of US jurisdiction.

Promising premise: a privacy-first AI is exactly what the current landscape was missing. With most services dominated by US and Chinese companies, having a European-based option, from a team already well-versed in online privacy, fills a much-needed gap. Looking forward to trying Lumo.

This is pretty awesome, and the mascot is kind of adorable. I really love the branding of this. Also, as a visionary user who has to use ChatGPT for his workflow, thank you. I can finally get rid of that. I've been testing it out, it's pretty great! Nice job team.
