Lumi Education
Ohrum, Germany
What it is
Lumi Education is software for educators who create, edit, host, and share interactive H5P learning content. Its activity formats include quizzes, interactive videos, presentations, and games. Content can be distributed by direct link, embedded widget, or QR code, and exported as HTML, SCORM, or H5P files. Lumi says H5P content can integrate with Moodle, WordPress, and Drupal. A free, open-source desktop editor runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, allowing offline creation, editing, and previewing. Lumi Cloud deployments collect learner interactions and answers, storing them individually within each deployment. The platform is hosted in the EU, with core application data in Frankfurt, Germany, and Lumi describes GDPR-aligned safeguards. The free plan costs nothing and allows unlimited contents with a 15 MB upload limit per file. Lumi Pro costs $10 a month or $100 a year, with a 500 MB per-file limit and individual feedback.
