No restrictions for files made by Proton´s own tools
I can understand some restrictions like upload sizes (although even for unlimited subscribers they are way too small to be useful), but at least have unlimited features for Proton's own tools like Sheets and Docs. That would further incentivize users to use them as well.
The 10 MB limit is likely an outdated restriction that doesn't reflect Proton's current technology. Since Proton already has a secure storage system (Drive) and collaboration tools (Docs/Sheets), the technical challenge isn't processing files, but integrating them directly into the chat. In a "Unlimited" tier, Lumo could read and analyze files directly from Drive without physical uploads, effectively bypassing the size limit entirely and making the service truly useful.

I agree that tighter integration between Proton Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Lumo could make the overall ecosystem much more useful. The 10 MB upload limit can be restrictive when working with larger documents or spreadsheets, especially for users who want AI assistance with research, data analysis, or summarizing lengthy files. Allowing Lumo to securely access files directly from Drive, with appropriate user permissions and privacy safeguards, could reduce unnecessary uploads and create a smoother workflow. Even if unlimited access isn't feasible for every plan, higher limits or flexible allowances for files created within Proton's own tools would be a worthwhile improvement.
