Slides aren't lessons.Lecturly makes them lessons.

Drop in any lecture PDF or PowerPoint. Lecturly writes the explanation, animates the diagrams, narrates the whole thing, and answers your questions about it. Roughly four minutes per topic.

Three things, one upload.

01 · UPLOAD

Drop in the deck.

Lecturly reads the slide text, the speaker notes if you have them, and the diagrams. A 60-page biology deck becomes a list of topics in about thirty seconds.

Watch it. Pause it. Ask it.

The lesson narrates itself with a built-up animation. When something doesn't land, open the side panel and ask. The tutor sees the slide you're on, the sentence you just heard, and the question you just typed.

Sure. If you mix a strong base into a buffered solution, what stops the pH from rising sharply?
The weak acid donates a proton
Right. The HA gives up an H⁺ that neutralizes the added OH⁻, producing water and the conjugate base. That’s why the buffer needs both halves at once.

The lesson lives in the lecturer’s head.

Slides are notes for the person speaking. They make sense if you were there when someone explained them. If you weren’t, and most of the time you weren’t, you get a list of bullets and a vague memory of what they were about.

That’s why textbooks exist, why study videos exist, and why you’ve ever rewatched a lecture at 1.5× trying to remember what slide 47 actually said.

Lecturly fills in the missing half.

The case for animated narration over static slides is well-established in the cognitive-science literature. Mayer’s Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, 2nd ed. (2009).

Pause anywhere. Ask anything about the lesson you’re on. The tutor sees the slide, the narration, and the question, so the answer is about your lecture, not the open internet.

Ask your tutor#3 · What Makes a Buffer?
Break this down simpler
Think of a buffer like a chemical sponge that soaks up extra acid or base to keep pH stable. It needs two ingredients working together: a weak acid and its ‘partner’ (its conjugate base), both present in good amounts, like ammonia and ammonium working as a team.
Why does the weak acid need to be paired with its conjugate base?
Each half handles one direction of trouble. If you add a base, the weak acid donates a proton to neutralize it. If you add an acid, the conjugate base absorbs that proton. Without both halves the solution can only resist one direction of pH change.

We’re in beta.

Lecturly is in active beta. Some uploads will surprise us, some edges will be rough, and a few flows will not behave the way you expect them to.

We are shipping fixes and new features continuously. The fastest way to help shape what comes next is to use the product and tell us what is missing or broken at contact@lecturly.ai.

Thanks for trying it early.

Things people ask.

What counts as one lesson?

Generating the explanation, animation, and narration for one topic from your deck. If your deck has 24 topics, that's 24 lessons. Regenerating the same topic from the same source doesn't use a new lesson; only new topics count.

How long are lessons?

Most run between two and seven minutes, depending on how much content is in the topic. You set the deck; Lecturly picks the length.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Account → "Manage subscription" opens the customer portal where you can cancel or downgrade in two clicks. You keep access until the end of the current period; nothing gets clawed back.

Can I share a lesson with my study group?

Every lesson has a share link. Anyone with the link can sign in and watch it (no plan required to view). The link stays the same even if you regenerate the lesson, so you can keep iterating without re-sharing.

What file formats work?

PDF and PowerPoint (.pptx). For PowerPoint we read the slide text and the speaker notes if you have them. We don't yet read images-of-text embedded in slides, so OCR-only PDFs won't generate well. If your deck is mostly photographed pages, expect mixed results.

Where does my data go?

Your slides and the generated narration audio sit in encrypted cloud storage and are deletable from your account at any time. The AI providers we use to generate lessons do not train their models on the content you upload. Detail on the specific providers and what they receive lives on the Privacy page.
