LumenBoard review
A focused tutoring room with persistent whiteboards and AI recaps on the top plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
LumenBoard is a browser-based virtual classroom for independent tutors and tutoring centers. It combines live video rooms, a persistent shared whiteboard, room chat and recurring student spaces, so tutors can keep lesson history and whiteboard content together between sessions. Students join through browser links. The product is designed for tutoring rather than full classrooms or school districts, with 1:1 teaching on Free and Tutor and small-group sessions added on Tutor Pro.
The plan structure is straightforward. Free costs $0 per month and includes two active tutoring rooms, up to one hour per day and three hours per week, live video, whiteboard, chat and 1:1 sessions. Tutor costs $15 per month and adds unlimited rooms and hours plus session recording with 30-day retention. Tutor Pro costs $29 per month and adds AI lesson notes, transcripts, ask-the-notes, automatic parent recaps, groups of up to six and one-year recording retention. A 7-day free trial is also available.
The standout feature is the continuity between teaching and follow-up: persistent whiteboard pages, room messages, recordings and AI-generated lesson materials keep a session connected to later review. That makes Tutor Pro the clearest fit for tutors who need parent communication or structured lesson records. LumenBoard is less suitable for teams seeking broad platform coverage, since it is browser-only, or for larger classes beyond six participants. Tutors who mainly need occasional 1:1 video lessons may find the Free plan sufficient, while regular teaching and recording needs point to Tutor.
