Lumi Forever: one payment, no renewals, up to 8 children. Lumi Academy, Lumi High and Lumi Lingo are included. Access lasts for as long as Lumi is offered.
Lumi started because I wanted a better, cheaper way to teach my own kids at home. Most learning apps bill you every month, for as long as you use them. We don't think families should have to live like that. So we keep finding ways to run Lumi for less, and we pass the savings to you in lower prices. Now we're testing the next step: pay $50 once, and your whole family keeps Lumi Academy, Lumi High and Lumi Lingo, with no renewals. Our goal is to get rid of the monthly drain for homeschool families. — Jesse, founder

Explore Lumi Lingo →Three things that make parents stay.
"My kids wake up early to do their lessons."
Lumi Bucks, streaks, a world map adventure, and a reward store make learning feel like a game kids choose — not a chore they endure.
"I know exactly where each kid is — without hovering."
Live scores, daily briefs, lesson history, attendance logs, and printable report cards — all generated automatically.
"Behind in math but ahead in reading — Lumi just handles it."
Every child is placed at their real level by subject, not their grade on paper, so nobody gets left behind and nobody gets bored.
Parents Who Made the Switch.
"We had tried several different programs and nothing was really sticking. My daughter hated doing school online. With Lumi, she actually looks forward to her lessons and wants to earn more rewards. I also love being able to see her progress without having to grade everything myself. It’s made homeschooling so much easier for us."
"My child actually asks to do school."
"I don’t have to spend my entire night planning tomorrow’s lessons."
"Everything is in one place instead of having 15 different websites open."
Built for Families Who Mean It.
No feature is behind an upgrade. No subject locked away. Every tool below is included on every plan — for every kid in your family.

Lessons That Adapt
Lumi steers lessons toward each child's weak topics and traces a struggle back to the earlier skill that's really missing.
