Lumi for Teachers

Record lessons that sound like you're teaching, not reading

Recorded lessons, flipped-classroom videos, and live online classes all go better when your notes are at the camera line. Lumi keeps your script by the lens and scrolls it with your voice, so you keep eye contact and stay on plan.

The problem with recording lessons

You know the material cold, but the camera changes things: you glance down at your notes, lose the thread, or re-record the same five-minute explainer four times trying to hit every point. Multiply that across a course and recording becomes the reason the videos never get made.

A prompter at the camera line fixes the mechanics. Your outline stays in view, scrolls as you talk, and you deliver the lesson once — looking at your students the whole time.

What Lumi does for educators

  • Notes at the camera line. Explain while looking at the lens, so recorded and live students feel spoken to, not read at.
  • FlowPrompt follows your voice. Pause to emphasize a point or answer a question; the script waits and picks up with you.
  • Meeting Mode for live classes. On Zoom, Meet, and Teams, your notes stay off the shared screen — students see the slide, not your script (macOS and Windows).
  • Recorder built in. Capture the lesson in the same app as the prompter, with nothing to sync afterward.
  • Runs where schools work. Mac, Windows, and a browser version for Chromebooks and managed laptops.

A simple recording workflow

  1. 1

    Outline the lesson in bullets

    Key points, definitions, and the one example you always forget. Bullets keep your delivery natural and flexible.

  2. 2

    Put the outline at the camera line

    Position it under your webcam so your eyes stay on the lens while you teach.

  3. 3

    Record, or go live with Meeting Mode

    Use the built-in recorder for lesson videos, or turn on Meeting Mode for a live Zoom/Meet/Teams class where the script stays private.

Frequently asked questions

How does a teleprompter help teachers record lessons?+
It keeps your lesson notes at the camera line so you look at students, not down at a page. With voice-following scroll, the script moves at your pace while you explain — so you cover every point without memorizing or re-recording.
Can I use it for live online classes on Zoom, Meet, or Teams?+
Yes. On the macOS and Windows apps, Meeting Mode keeps your notes visible to you and invisible on your screen share, so students on Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams see your slides — not your script.
Will it work on my school laptop or Chromebook?+
Lumi runs on macOS and Windows, and there's a browser version at app.getlumi.pro for locked-down school devices and Chromebooks where you can't install software. Voice-following prompting works in the browser; the recorder and Meeting Mode are in the desktop apps.
Do I have to read word-for-word?+
No — bullet points work best for teaching. You keep your natural, explaining voice while staying on the key points and definitions, and the script is there when you need the exact wording.
Can I record the lesson inside the app?+
On macOS and Windows, yes — Lumi is a prompter and a recorder in one, so your lesson script and your recording live in the same place. No separate screen recorder to juggle.
How much is it for a teacher?+
Lumi is $9/month or $27 once. One purchase covers Mac, Windows, and the web version.
