Lumi Education lets educators create, edit, host, and share interactive H5P learning content. H5P activities can include quizzes, interactive videos, presentations, and games. Content can be shared by direct link, embedded widget, or QR code, and exported as HTML, SCORM, or H5P files. Lumi says H5P content can integrate with platforms such as Moodle, WordPress, and Drupal. Its free, open-source desktop editor creates, edits, and previews H5P content offline on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Lumi Cloud deployments collect learner interactions and answers, stored individually within each deployment. The platform is hosted in the EU, with core application data stored in Frankfurt, Germany. Lumi describes GDPR-aligned safeguards including data minimization, privacy by design, encrypted connections, restricted production access, updates, and monitoring. The free plan allows unlimited content and includes HTML, SCORM, and H5P export, with a 15 MB per-file upload limit. Pro raises the file limit to 500 MB and adds individual feedback; listed prices are $10 a month or $100 a year.
