the option to personalize the bot would be nice. the blog post announcing Lumo mentioned how other chat bots are cold and corporate or something along those lines, but if you look past the cat mascot then Lumo is no different or even less personal than some other solutions. DuckDuckGo recently implemented a customization feature to their AI chat bot service and notably included a playful "Ducky" preset for the bot's tone, which adds some duck-related verbal fluff to the bot's output

i'd also like Proton to be more open and forthcoming with information. right now it feels like Lumo is just a proprietary front end built upon publicly available but undisclosed 3rd party software, i.e. the LLMs, two of which i think might be GPT 4o-mini and o4-mini (which are in fact different models). they also don't seem to mention anywhere what the rate limits are for free tier users. Lumo itself told me it was 100 messages per day, but i haven't been able to verify that information with the FAQs or terms of service.
currently, Duckduckgo has a significantly better supposedly private "AI" chat feature that's more transparent. they straight up let you choose which model you want to use in a chat and even tell you who developed the model and whether or not it's open source

there definitely are reasons for "why not", such as requiring ongoing development time that could go into Proton's many already existing products instead.
but also, what's wrong with Signal? or rather, what could Proton do better than Signal that would actually provide meaningful value and not just further fragmentation in the messaging app market? considering most people still just use WhatsApp or maybe Telegram because everyone else does, too, and cross-platform messaging does not exist to my knowledge
