TLDR: When you’re looking to buy a new phone, instead of Googling iPhone 16 reviews and opening multiple Reddit threads, blog reviews, and YouTube videos to know if you want to buy it, you can search once on Lumona to get all that info on one page. Try it on our website!

Hey YC, we’re Dylan and Qiong, the co-founders of Lumona. After working on a product search engine, we’ve decided to build a new general search engine that incorporates those insights, and more, to make search better.

❌ The Problem

It’s hard to find quality information online to help you decide which product to buy, which restaurant to go to, or whether a red flag is beige. You can easily get a list of links, an AI-generated answer, or even a summary of relevant Reddit threads, but you’ll then have to comb through the many new tabs you open, make sure the AI isn’t giving you fake news, and still go to each thread to make sure the commenters weren’t spam themselves. If search engines know so much about their results and users, why can’t they make something better that integrates all 3 into one result so you don’t have to spend your evening opening and closing tabs?

✅ Our Solution

Lumona is our answer to that question. We believe that search should be something that builds trust, reflects what you find valuable on the internet, and, most importantly, helps you find the information you need. Instead of expecting you to blindly trust our AI, we give you reasons to by supporting it with information from real people and platforms you already trust. Instead of expecting you to sort through Reddit comments or YouTube videos to find that one comment or moment, we sift through them for you and give you the information you need, all on the same page. Instead of making decisions harder by giving you contradictory ads so that we can make more money, we give you the information you need to make the best decision for you.
