Overview
Lume Learn has been one of the best study buddies I've had in a long while. As a STEM student, AI — when used right — can be so helpful. Using Lume Learn, there are multiple features I find refreshing and relieving.
"Seeing my Pomodoro aesthetics makes me feel like studying can be so fun with the right materials."
This is probably my most used feature. The Pomodoro timer feels so easy to use and very different to other timers I have used. One can change the background to whatever they want — whether it's the moon, the stars, the forest, or a café. One of the best things is also the ability to add music and background noise like rain, thunderstorms, or people's conversations, producing a lifelike environment even when studying alone.
As a music lover, I am able to access YouTube for anything I want — any music or podcasts. One can even win badges based on how long they study, and there are levels to reach. So brilliant — it makes some people see studying as a treat. It makes me so eager to start a session.
"Studying with Ayan feels like studying with a live teacher. She is strict, thorough, and very effective."
Ayan AI is the most realistic study buddy AI I have ever come across. She doesn't feel rigid or programmed like a robot. She is thorough with the teaching and heavy on retaining information. She draws from your uploaded notes and helps you add to your notes after each teaching session. She also makes sure you are retaining information by generating quizzes and flashcards for you.
Ayan can be given a study timetable to follow and she makes sure to stick to it. With her, it's about making sure you can always connect the dots — she isn't in the business of always feeding you answers unless help is truly needed. I prefer Ayan to a lot of AI, and I can't wait until she is unlimited.
"I love that the AI cannot access your journal. It makes me feel a lot safer that it is truly private."
The note-taking section is so smooth and easy to use. I love that whatever notes you take, when using Ayan, you can easily access them during studying. When Ayan generates more information and explanations, she automatically opens your notes and tells you to add to them — which is so impressive.
I love the lock feature on the journaling section too. I adore the fact that the AI cannot access your journal. It makes me feel a lot safer that it is truly private. I have replaced my physical notes entirely with the journaling and note-taking section.
"When I walked into the exam hall, I felt relaxed because Ayan had drilled everything into my brain."
Once lectures are uploaded and folders are created for desired modules, the platform is also able to generate a study timetable from the day of upload to the exam period — or whatever timeframe you add. This timetable has proven to be effective. I used it for my final year exams. Sessions can be ticked off one by one as they are completed, similar to the to-do list which is just as pleasant to use.
I loved using the exam feature to give myself a mock exam before the actual thing. When I walked into the exam hall, I felt relaxed because Ayan had drilled everything I had been learning into my brain.
A detail that mattered
"The light to dark mode might not be a feature people pay attention to — but as someone with an eye condition, I was so grateful that that little detail was added."
Final verdict
"Lume Learn is becoming revolutionary and has personally become a great addition to my study sessions. I am truly surprised by how neat it looks despite the number of features in it. I am beyond grateful — I felt I was truly listened to. I will definitely be recommending this to my students."
