Why Lumina
Being the parent of a kid with special needs is a second job.
Lumina takes the mental load off your shoulders: one binder, always with you, that remembers everything.
Paperwork everywhere
Evaluations in emails, the IEP in a backpack, therapy notes in your head, agency letters in a drawer.
Deadlines that sneak up
Annual IEP review, three-year re-evaluation, Regional Center or waiver renewal: miss one and services can stall.
You're the case manager
Teacher, speech therapist, OT, pediatrician, service coordinator… you retell the same story to everyone.
Features
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Designed with parents, for the real life of IEPs, therapies and agencies.
A care log in 30 seconds
One note per session, meeting or observation, sorted by speech, OT, psych, medical, school or agencies. Dated automatically.
Deadlines that remind you
IEP meetings, 504 reviews, re-evaluations, agency renewals: countdowns, plus reminders in your phone's calendar.
An encrypted document vault
Evaluations, IEPs, 504 plans, agency letters, prescriptions: PDFs or photos, sorted by child, encrypted on your device.
One-click summary
A clean timeline PDF for the doctor, the school or the IEP team, with evaluations attached. Send it from your phone.
Every contact in one place
Case manager, therapists, service coordinator, school nurse: added once, shareable with your co-parent.
Plain-language evaluation summaries
Lumina can summarize a long evaluation in plain English, right in your browser: nothing is sent to an online AI.
How it works
Ready in one minute. Really.
Create your binder
Your email for beta updates, then a passcode. It encrypts everything on your device.
Add your child
Diagnoses, school, accommodations. Then log a note after each session or meeting.
Share when you choose
Before an appointment or an IEP meeting, generate the summary and send it in one tap.
Built for your state
California, Texas, Florida: your words, your deadlines.
Special education follows federal law (IDEA and Section 504), but every state has its own names, agencies and calendars. Lumina and its guides speak your state's language.
California
- IEP meetings and three-year re-evaluations under IDEA and the California Education Code
- Regional Center intake and your child's IPP reviews
- Early Start for children under 3
Texas
- ARD committee meetings (the Texas name for the IEP meeting)
- Dyslexia services under the Texas Dyslexia Handbook
- Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) for children under 3
Florida
- IEP and 504 plans in your school district (ESE services)
- Early Steps for children under 3
- Scholarship paperwork for students with unique abilities
Privacy by design
Your child's records stay yours.
Diagnoses, evaluations and medications are among the most sensitive data there is. Lumina was built so that even we can't read them.
Stored on your device
Your child's information lives in your browser, on your phone or computer. It is not uploaded to our servers.
Encrypted with your passcode
AES-256 encryption with a key derived from your passcode. We never see or store your passcode.
No account database to breach
We don't keep your child's records, so there's nothing about them for anyone to steal from us.
No ads, no trackers
No advertising, no analytics cookies, no data sales. Ever.
You decide what's shared
The summary PDF only leaves your device when you send it, to whoever you choose.
Encrypted backups
Export an encrypted backup to iCloud Drive or Google Drive and restore it on a new phone.
The flip side: if you forget your passcode and have no backup, nobody can recover your binder, not even us. Read our privacy policy.
Who it's for
Made for parents, not for clinics.
- Parents of kids with ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia or dyscalculia
- Families of autistic children, from early intervention to high school
- Parents preparing an IEP, ARD or 504 meeting
- Co-parents who need the same information
- Families working with a Regional Center, ECI or Early Steps
- Anyone tired of retelling their child's story at every appointment
Lumina is an organization tool for families. It is not a medical device: it does not diagnose, give medical advice or replace the professionals who care for your child.

FAQ
You're probably wondering…
Is Lumina really free?+
Yes. During the public beta, Lumina is completely free, with every feature and no credit card. After the official launch, it will be $9.99 per month, free for anyone with 3 paying referrals. Beta testers will be told in advance and nothing will be charged without their consent.
Does Lumina work with IEPs and 504 plans?+
Yes. You can track IEP meetings (ARD meetings in Texas), 504 plan reviews and re-evaluations with countdowns and calendar reminders, keep the signed documents in an encrypted vault, and generate a summary to bring to the meeting.
Is it HIPAA-compliant?+
HIPAA applies to healthcare providers and insurers, not to the records parents keep themselves. Lumina goes further than most apps: your child's information is encrypted and stored only on your device, and we cannot read it.
Can Lumina read my child's information?+
No. Everything is encrypted and saved in your browser, on your device. Our servers never receive your notes, your documents or your passcode.
What happens if I forget my passcode?+
Your data stays encrypted and nobody can decrypt it, not even the Lumina team. You can erase the binder and start over. Write your passcode down somewhere safe and make regular encrypted backups.
Can I use Lumina on my phone and my computer?+
Lumina works in your usual browser (Safari, Chrome…) on phone, tablet and computer, with nothing to install. To move your binder to another device, export an encrypted backup and restore it there. There's no automatic sync yet.
How do reminders work?+
Each deadline can be added to your phone's calendar in one tap (Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook). Your calendar sends the reminders, 1 month and 1 week before, even when Lumina is closed.
What do the doctor or the school receive?+
Only what you decide to send: a PDF summary for the period, topics and evaluations you choose. Nothing is shared automatically.
Which states is Lumina for?+
Lumina works anywhere in the United States, because special education follows federal law (IDEA and Section 504). Our guides and examples are written for California, Texas and Florida first.
Does Lumina replace medical advice?+
No. Lumina is an organization tool for families. It does not diagnose and does not replace the professionals who care for your child.
