About

Euma

Features
Read full description

Euma is a tutor for your own textbook, and it talks. Open a PDF or EPUB, a textbook or your professor’s syllabus. Euma reads it aloud, explains the page, asks you a question and checks your answer, so you can study on a walk or on the train. Made for medical students, and for anyone with a thick book and an exam date. Your book, tutored out loud Switch the listening mode to Tutor and press play. Euma explains the page out loud, asks you a question and waits for your answer. Say it or type it. The Tutor works out the right answer first, then tells you what you got right and what is missing. Weak spots come back Between pages, tap Refresh. The Tutor asks again about ideas from earlier pages that are due for review, and says which pages they come from. Your book, read aloud Press play and Euma reads your book aloud in its own language: a Dutch syllabus is read in Dutch. Scanned pages are read too. Ask about the page Stuck on a passage? Ask Euma. Answers come from your book and show the page they came from, so you can read it there yourself. They teach the intuition, the mechanism and the book’s own detail, with a question to test yourself. Some answers include a picture: a figure from your book or a licensed image. On iPad, write on PDF pages with Apple Pencil and circle a passage to ask Euma about it. On Mac, the chat sits beside the book. A plan to your exam Pick a finish date, such as the day of your exam, and Euma works out how many pages to read a day. Progress follows what you have actually read. Start reading right away Reading, highlights and progress need no account and cost nothing. Euma AI and Euma Plus The voice, the Tutor and answers about the page come with Euma AI, a monthly subscription that starts with a 7-day free trial. Euma Plus has a larger monthly allowance. In euro countries Euma AI is €4.99 a month and Euma Plus €9.99 a month; elsewhere the App Store shows your local price before you subscribe. A meter in the app shows how much of your monthly allowance you have used. The app is in English. The voice and the answers follow the language of your book. Euma runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 26 or later. Euma for Mac (macOS 26 or later) is a download from euma.app. Terms of use: https://euma.app/terms Privacy policy: https://euma.app/privacy
