**Is your AI assistant spying on you?** While tech giants harvest your conversations for profit, Swiss privacy champion Proton just launched something revolutionary—Lumo, an AI assistant that keeps zero logs and encrypts every chat you save.

## What Makes Lumo Different?

Unlike ChatGPT or Google’s Bard, Lumo doesn’t use your conversations to train its models. Every interaction stays between you and the AI—no corporate surveillance, no data selling, no government backdoors.

### Key Features at a Glance

## Privacy Features That Matter

**Ghost Mode**: Conversations disappear as soon as you close the window—perfect for sensitive discussions.

**European Protection**: Hosted entirely in Europe under GDPR regulations, keeping your data away from US surveillance laws.

**File Security**: Upload documents with full encryption, or connect directly to [Proton Drive](https://proton.me/drive) for seamless privacy.

## How to Get Started

Lumo is available at [lumo.proton.me](https://lumo.proton.me/) with three tiers:

- **Guest**: No account needed, limited weekly questions
- **Free**: Basic file uploads with encrypted chat history
- **Plus**: $12.99/month for unlimited chats and large file uploads

## The Bottom Line

While Big Tech repeats the mistakes of the internet’s early days by turning people into products, Proton built Lumo to work for you, not against you. For users serious about digital privacy, this represents a genuine alternative to surveillance capitalism.
