## What is LUMARA?

LUMARA is the AI that knows you:
The longer you use it, the more personal it becomes. Unlike every other AI, it never shares what it learns about you with anyone.

Built around your life:
Write freely. Talk through what's on your mind. LUMARA builds a living memory from everything you share - connecting patterns across your entries, tracking how you think and what matters to you, and getting more useful over time.

CHRONICLE - Memory that compounds:
Everything you write gets organized into layers of understanding. Monthly Reflections capture what happened and how you felt about it. Yearly syntheses show the arc of your year: the themes, the shifts, the decisions that defined it. Multi-year life arcs reveal who you're becoming across time. Lumara draws on all of it automatically when you chat, so responses are grounded in your actual life, not generic advice. 

Three ways to interact:
Normal - thoughtful, analytical responses for everything questioned 
Advanced - Deep analysis and extended thinking for complex problems 
Personal - LUMARA weaves your History, patterns, and CHRONICLE memory into every response

Privacy first, always:
Every message passes through PRISM, LUMARA's built-in privacy layer, before reaching in the AI model. Your personal information is stripped before it leaves your device and restored when the answer comes back. The AI does the work. It never sees who you are. 

SwarmSpace - Just Ask: 
Need to research something? Check the news? Look up a paper, analyze an image? Just ask. 
LUMARA figures out what's needed and handles it. No switching apps, no setup. You ask it in plain language, and it works it out. 

The most capable personal AI you'll ever use. The only one that gives the big models nothing to keep.

  What's New in This Version

  Decision Simulator
  Describe a decision you're working through, and LUMARA maps it out. It extracts the key factors, models how different paths might
  play out, and surfaces the most likely outcome, critical pivot points, and outlier scenarios. Find it in the Agents tab.

  News Briefing Subscriptions — Keep Watching This
  Any news brief can now become a recurring subscription. After running a brief, tap "Keep watching this →", choose your topics, and
  pick a daily or weekly cadence. LUMARA fetches fresh briefings automatically. Manage your watched topics from the new Manage tab.

  Agents Tab — Redesigned
  Agents is now organized into three sections: Ask (open-ended queries), Agents (six purpose-built agents: Writing, Research,
  Competitor Intel, Plugin Discovery, Image Analysis, Meeting Prep), and Manage (subscriptions, permissions, capabilities).
  SwarmSpace-powered steps now show permission checkboxes so you can see and control exactly what's running on each job.

  Pattern Analysis — Include My History
  The mode pill is now Simple and Advanced with a separate "Include my history" toggle. Turn it on when you want LUMARA to connect
  your reflection to your actual journal entries and recurring patterns. Pattern-seeking questions now trigger a structured five-point
   analysis.

  iOS Background Refresh
  LUMARA can now update your Chronicle in the background when your device is on Wi-Fi and connected to power. Your timeline stays
  current without needing to open the app.

  Research Results
  Results screens now support landscape orientation. Wide data tables scroll horizontally instead of getting clipped. Deep and Simple
  search are now selectable per run.

  Simple Mode — Faster
  Simple mode no longer routes through the full orchestrator pipeline. Responses arrive noticeably faster.

  Auto Meeting Prep Subscriptions
  Set up recurring pre-meeting briefs from the new card in the Manage tab.

  Chat UX
  Scroll buttons auto-fade after a few seconds. Tap the keyboard while it's visible to dismiss it. Responses now show a refresh icon.
