Question 1

What is Lodestar AI?

Accepted Answer

Lodestar AI is AI-powered work intelligence — it unifies your email, calendar, files, projects, and client context so you can plan your day, clean your inbox, prep meetings, and track follow-ups. Learn more at docs.getlodestar.ai or visit getlodestar.ai.

Question 2

How do I get Lodestar AI?

Accepted Answer

Get Lodestar AI by joining early access at getlodestar.ai/early-access. We're onboarding in small cohorts — early members get priority access and launch pricing.

Question 3

Is it Lodestar or Loadstar?

Accepted Answer

The correct spelling is Lodestar AI — L-O-D-E-S-T-A-R. You'll find us at getlodestar.ai.

Question 4

Do I need Claude or ChatGPT to use Lodestar AI?

Accepted Answer

No. Lodestar AI is fully useful on its own as your operating command center, and it includes its own built-in AI chat — so if you don't use Claude or ChatGPT, you still get the full conversational experience. Already have an assistant? Connect it via MCP to read your context and act. Either way works.

Question 5

Which AI assistants does it work with?

Accepted Answer

Anything that speaks MCP — Claude, ChatGPT, Cowork and Claude Code today, with more as the ecosystem grows. Lodestar AI is model-agnostic by design: when a better model ships, your accumulated context only gets more valuable.

Question 6

Where does my data live, and who can see it?

Accepted Answer

Your data is yours. It's encrypted per user, and you can run on your own model provider key (BYOK) in advanced mode so inference never touches a shared account. We're building privacy-first from day one.

Question 7

What can it connect to?

Accepted Answer

Gmail and Outlook for email and calendar; Google Drive, OneDrive/SharePoint, Teams and Slack for files and messages. Everything is unified and organized by organisation and project.

Question 8

When does it launch?

Accepted Answer

Lodestar AI is in prerelease. Get early access and we'll reach out as spots open up — early members get priority access and launch pricing.
