'Users no longer need to choose between powerful AI capabilities and meaningful privacy protections': Proton makes its Lumo privacy-first ChatGPT alternative a lot more powerful

A promotional image for Lumo 2.0.
  • Lumo 2.0 release rebuilds Proton's privacy-first assistant with reasoning modes, image generation/recognition, cited live web search, and persistent memory
  • The privacy stack mixes cryptography and policy: zero-access encryption protects stored chats and images, while inference-time protection relies on Proton's no-logs/no-training promises that have held in the past
  • Proton's Lumo 2.0 Lite and Lumo 2.0 Max score 127% and 240% higher than Lumo 1.4 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, making them close in on last-generation frontier AI models

Proton has revealed Lumo 2.0, its updated AI alternative to ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, focusing on privacy first and foremost, a distinctly different approach from most of its competition.
