LumenNotes

Keep typing. The page keeps working.

Drop a spreadsheet into a note and it stays live — table, board, chart, timeline. Hand a line to an agent and it goes and does the job while you carry on writing. Both land back in the page, on your own machine.

Data boards

A spreadsheet, living in the page.

Type /data, pick a workbook and a sheet, and the note holds a live view of it. Not a screenshot and not a paste — the rows come from the file, and what you change here is written back to it.

Point it at a sheet

/data lists the workbooks you have. Pick one, pick a sheet, pick a first view. Nothing is copied.

2

Read it ten ways

The same rows as a table, a kanban, a chart, a calendar, a timeline or a pivot. Filter and group without touching the file.

Edit from the note

Change a cell, tick a box, drag a card between lanes — it goes back to the sheet. Open it in LumenSheets whenever you want the whole thing.

Agent workloads

Hand a line to an agent. Keep writing.

Type @ on any to-do — or any row of a data board — and pick a role. It runs in the background while you carry on, and writes what it found into its own card. It never touches the line you are typing on.

Writer · Launch note draft · stopped part-way

Opening paragraph and the pricing section are written. I stopped before the FAQ because the tier names were still being changed.

Three states, all real: running with its own step feed, finished, and stopped part-way — which is written into the page, so it is still there tomorrow.

A running agent never touches your page. Everything it does accumulates in its own card and is written once, when it finishes — so agents working in the background cannot take the cursor away from you mid-sentence, and cannot lose a word you typed while they ran.

And it runs here, not in the cloud. The notebook is encrypted on this machine and there is no server copy of the body text — so there is nothing in the cloud for an agent to read. Close the lid and the queue waits for you.

Coordinator

Breaks the work into tasks, runs them in parallel, then writes up what came back.

Task

Takes one job end to end, with everything the assistant can reach.

Researcher

Finds out — the open web and your own library — and reports back with sources.

Analyst

Works the numbers: reads your spreadsheets and builds the boards that show them.

Writer

Drafts the thing — a section, a page, a document in another editor.

Reviewer

Checks the work against the page and says what is wrong with it. Changes nothing.

LumenAgent, inside LumenNotes

A 51-minute call, sorted into who owes what.

A real run, steppable. It reads the page, searches your whole library for the files the call referred to, writes the summary back — then stops and asks before anything leaves your machine.

The notebook is not a silo.

A note is one document among eleven kinds, in one library, with one agent that can read all of them and hand work to whichever editor should be doing it.

Step oneIt reads across everything

search_library searches every saved document — PDFs, sheets, decks, boards, forms and notebooks — not just the one that is open.

Step twoIt hands work to the right editor

work_on_document passes the job to that document’s own AI, so a spreadsheet is built by the spreadsheet engine rather than guessed at from outside.

Step threeIt writes the findings somewhere durable

create_document spins up a new doc, sheet, PDF, deck or note from what it just made, and opens it in the right editor.

Also true

The ordinary notebook underneath.

None of the above helps if the basics are missing. They are not.

Record and transcribe

Record into the page and get the text back, with word-level timings kept beside the audio.

[[Wiki-links]] and backlinks

Link pages as you type. Every page shows what points at it.

A page tree, eight deep

Notebooks, pages, sub-pages. Drag to re-nest; nothing is lost in a flat list.

One to-do roundup

Every open item across every notebook, with its owner and its date.

Full-text search

Every notebook from one query — and from ⌘K, and from the assistant.

Columns and equations

Multi-column bands and real maths inside the page, not a picture of maths.

Reminders

Put a time on a line and the machine tells you, once, on the device you are at.

Encrypted on your machine

The notebook is encrypted at rest on the device. There is no server copy of the body text.

Questions

LumenNotes questions.

Is LumenNotes free?

Yes. Every one of the eleven editors is free with no trial timer and no watermark, and a free account includes Lumen Core plus a monthly AI allowance. Transcription is the one thing on this page that needs a paid plan (Plus and above); recording audio into a page is free.

Where does the audio go when I transcribe it?

Transcribing a saved recording uploads that audio to LumenQube’s managed transcription service and sends back the text plus word timings; long recordings are split into chunks first. The live transcript you see while recording comes from your system’s own speech engine. If you would rather nothing left the machine, record without transcribing — the audio stays in the page.

Can the agent read my other documents?

Only when you ask it to. search_library searches the local index of documents you have opened or saved, and read_library_document reads one of them back. Both run against your own machine’s index. Reaching the open web, connected mailboxes or an MCP server are separate capabilities you control individually.

What does the approval card in the demo actually gate?

Publishing a share link. Each agent capability is set to Auto, Ask or Off, and “Publish share links” stays on Ask even in the most autonomous preset, because it puts one of your real working documents behind a URL. Declining is a real branch: the demo above takes a genuinely different route and ends somewhere else.
