Context Control

Control context as the work changes

Choose what each prompt and AI output should pay attention to, remove noisy inputs, and keep your thinking aligned as ideas, inputs, and directions evolve.

The old way

AI output drifts when context gets messy.

Complex work changes as you go. New inputs appear, old ideas become less relevant, and some details matter more than others.

01
You paste too much context

To avoid missing details, you give the model a long wall of text and hope it figures out what matters.

02
The model follows the wrong thread

Old ideas, weak directions, and irrelevant notes can shape the answer even when they are no longer useful.

03
You restart when the work changes

When the output is slightly off, you rewrite the prompt, start a new chat, or rebuild the context somewhere else.

The illumi way

Manage the context behind every output.

illumi lets you see, connect, edit, and remove the inputs that shape each prompt or AI output. Instead of treating context as one big block of text, you can manage it as part of the workflow.

Benefit

AI outputs stay aligned with the thinking you actually want to build on.

Feature

Note-to-prompt connections, editable context, removable inputs, and visible context paths.

Capability

See and adjust context as the work develops.

Workflow proof · 01

Connect only the inputs that matter

Not every note should influence every output. Select the specific ideas, examples, constraints, or references that should guide a prompt.

Add notes and inputs to the board
Select the cards that matter
Connect them to a prompt
Generate from that specific context
Workflow proof · 02

Remove noise before it shapes the output

As the work develops, some ideas become irrelevant. Remove weak directions, old assumptions, or noisy notes from the active context so the output does not drift.

Review the current context
Remove irrelevant cards
Keep important constraints visible
Regenerate or refine the output
Workflow proof · 03

Refine without starting over

When the output is close but not quite right, you should not have to restart the whole chat. Adjust the context, edit the prompt, and keep building from the same working structure.

Where context control helps

Use this when the quality of the output depends on the context behind it.

Use Case
Reuse context structures across boards

Keep evidence, quotes, and themes connected to the right interpretation prompts.

Use Case
Strategy work

Separate current-state context, strategic options, constraints, and recommendations.

Use Case
GTM planning

Keep customer research, product context, and messaging angles connected.

Use Case
Client proposals

Use discovery notes, requirements, and examples without rebuilding the brief.

Use Case
Workshop follow-through

Turn session input into follow-up material without losing the original discussion.

Use Case
Reusable templates

Save context structures for repeated client workflows.

Build from the right context every time.

Use illumi to keep your notes, prompts, AI outputs, and reasoning connected while the work develops.
