Lemora turns lectures and course materials into study notes and learning activities. Students can provide live lectures, PDFs, slides, YouTube links, web pages, or text, then create flashcards, quizzes, mind maps, and podcasts from that material. Its AI tutor answers typed or spoken questions using the learner’s notes and can explain answers aloud. Lemora supports recording and study in more than 100 languages, and users can choose a language for their notes. The site presents it for students studying math, science, or code, as well as people learning in a second language. Notes sync between the app and web; Lemora is listed for Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. Lemora says uploaded personal content is not used to train its or third-party AI models, though submitted content may be shared with OpenAI and Anthropic to generate learning materials. Users can delete their account and associated data through app or web settings, with some data potentially retained in encrypted backups for a limited time. The site advises checking school rules before recording lectures.
