Study on the go: turn any source into a two-host audio overview

Lumo AI turns your lecture, PDF, or paper into a two-host audio overview you can listen to on a commute, a walk, or between classes — grounded in your source, not generic narration.

Not every study session happens at a desk. Some of your best revision time is dead time — a bus ride, a walk, the ten minutes before a lecture starts. The problem is that reading doesn't fit those moments. Listening does.

What an audio overview actually is

Lumo's audio overview turns your source into a short, two-host conversation — two voices walking through the key ideas the way a good study partner would. It's not a robotic read-aloud of your notes. The hosts explain, ask each other questions, and connect the dots, so the material lands as understanding rather than narration.

Grounded in your source

The point of an audio overview is trust. Lumo builds the script from your uploaded lecture, PDF, paper, or pasted text — not from the open internet. The five-agent pipeline reads the source, pulls the concepts that matter, and keeps the conversation anchored to what your material actually says. You get the NotebookLM-style listening experience, paired with the rest of Lumo's study kit.

How to use it

  1. Drop in your source — a lecture recording, a YouTube link, or a PDF.
  2. Generate the audio overview alongside your notes and flashcards.
  3. Listen once for the shape of the topic, then come back to the notes and quiz to lock it in.

Audio is for exposure — hearing the ideas enough times that they feel familiar. Pair it with active recall (the quiz and flashcards) for the part that actually moves things into long-term memory.
