Most AI platforms give you one thing: a chat box connected to one company's model. LumiChats was built on the premise that students and developers need more than one thing, and that getting everything from one platform at one price is more efficient than assembling a stack of subscriptions. Here is a complete guide to every feature on LumiChats and what each one is actually useful for.
Standard Chat: 40+ Models in One Interface
The core LumiChats experience is a multi-model chat interface that lets you switch between AI models mid-session without changing tabs, creating new accounts, or paying extra. You can start a brainstorm in GPT-5.4, switch to Claude Sonnet 4.6 for the writing, and use Gemini 3 Pro to verify a current fact — all within the same ₹69 day pass. The interface supports file uploads (PDFs, DOCX, XLSX, images), image analysis, voice input, and streaming responses.
Study Mode: Page-Locked AI Answers with Citations
Study Mode is LumiChats' most distinctive feature for academic work. Upload any PDF and the AI grounds every answer in that document, citing the exact page number the information came from. This eliminates the core problem of standard AI for studying: confident hallucinations that don't match your textbook. You can pin a page range — say pages 40–70 for an upcoming exam topic — and every answer the AI gives will come exclusively from those pages.
What Study Mode Supports
- PDF textbooks with page-range pinning — most common use case for exam prep
- Lecture slide exports (PDF or PPTX) — concept-level Q&A grounded in your professor's material
- Research papers — section-by-section summarisation with citation accuracy
- Past exam papers — generate practice questions modelled on actual exam formats
- Handwritten notes (images) — visual content processing for notes you have written by hand
Quiz Generation: Active Recall from Your Actual Material
After uploading a document in Study Mode, you can generate a quiz drawn exclusively from the pages you have specified. The quiz is not generic — it tests the exact terminology, definitions, and concepts from your syllabus. Multiple choice, short answer, and conceptual questions are all available. This is active recall — the most evidence-backed study technique in educational psychology — made effortless and aligned to your actual course material.
Agent Mode: Real Code Execution in Your Browser
Agent Mode is LumiChats' most technically impressive feature and the one most relevant for developers. In Agent Mode, the AI can write code and execute it in a real Node.js environment running in your browser via WebContainers. The AI does not just generate code — it runs it, reads the output, debugs failures, and iterates until the task is complete. You can upload a ZIP file of your codebase and ask the agent to refactor, debug, or extend it. Files generated by the agent are downloadable directly from the chat interface.
Memory System: Persistent Context Across Sessions
Standard AI chat has no memory between sessions. Every conversation starts from scratch. LumiChats' Memory system lets the AI store and recall persistent notes about you — your ongoing projects, your learning preferences, your technical stack, your exam schedule. These memories are categorised as Project, Learning, Experiment, or Personal Preference, and they are injected into each new session so the AI has context without you having to re-explain every time. You can view, edit, and delete any memory from the Memory Panel.
Note Generation: Structured Study Notes from Conversations
After a study session, Note Generation takes your conversation and converts it into structured notes with headings, key terms, definitions, and summaries. Because the notes are derived from your document-grounded conversation, they are accurate to your course material — not generic AI summaries of a topic.
