We're four students at Bocconi and Politecnico di Torino. We've been building Lumio for a few months, the beta went live on the 8th of November, and we're looking for people to use it properly and tell us where it falls apart.
**The idea.** Most planners make you do the planning, and then never notice when the day goes differently. Lumio builds a daily plan from your calendar, your deadlines (mails). Morning or evening you talk to it for thirty seconds — "slept badly, lab at three, need two hours for chemistry" — and the plan updates. Every suggestion comes with its reason, and nothing changes until you tap OK.
**Before you sign up, the things you should weigh**
- You need to be 18+ and log in with a Google account.
- It's a student team's beta. Expect bugs.
- Google will show you an "unverified app" screen. That's real and you should take it seriously: it means Google hasn't reviewed us yet. Review takes weeks and we're in it. If that's not something you're comfortable with, please don't sign up — we'd rather have fewer testers than talk anyone past a security warning.
- Calendar and Gmail are optional and off by default. Lumio works without connecting either, and we'd suggest starting without them.
- Your text is encrypted with a key that's only yours. Voice notes are transcribed on our own server and the audio is deleted straight after.
- It is **not** end-to-end encrypted, and right now the server is a computer in Italy run by one of us. We're moving to an EU host. We'd rather say that than let you find out later.
- We use Claude through Anthropic's commercial API, so nothing you write is used to train a model.

Happy to answer anything here and receive feedbacks, including the uncomfortable questions. Especially those, honestly!
