Generate images without leaving the conversation.
Lumen connects your own OpenAI or Google key to your AI assistant, so an image is one request away while you work. You bring the key. We bring the bridge.
Before you sign up — one current limitation
When you generate an image through the connector, your assistant can see and describe it, but most AI chat apps do not yet display the image inline in the chat. You'll find each image three ways: in the message's collapsed "tool result", via a link Lumen returns in the reply, and in your dashboard gallery. Generating from the Lumen dashboard itself does show images immediately.
This is a limitation of the chat clients, not a Lumen bug.
Three steps
From key to image
Add your key
Paste your OpenAI or Google API key. It is encrypted before it touches storage and never shown again.
Connect your assistant
Add your connection URL to your AI assistant as a custom connector. One link, scoped to you.
Ask for an image
Ask your assistant for an image. It calls Lumen, your key generates it, and you get a link to the image plus a copy in your dashboard gallery.
Pricing
You pay for the convenience, not the compute
Model costs run on your own key. These plans cover the bridge: storage, history, and generating right inside your chat.
