LearnWise AI and YuJa Lumina Bring AI-Powered Course Support to Video-Based Learning

Video is one of the most widely used formats in higher education today. Recorded lectures, explainer clips, and course walkthroughs make up a significant portion of how students actually encounter course content. Yet for most students, that content has always been passive: you watch it, take notes, and hope you understood it.

That changes with our new integration with YuJa.

We're excited to announce a formal partnership with YuJa, a pioneer in enterprise video management solutions for higher education, bringing together the YuJa Lumina Video Platform and LearnWise AI. Together, we're turning passive video content into an active, searchable, AI-powered learning resource, available to students wherever they study.

What this means for students

With this integration, LearnWise AI automatically connects to your institution's YuJa Lumina video library. It extracts captions and transcripts from recorded lectures and maps them to the appropriate courses in your LMS, whether that's Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, D2L Brightspace, or Microsoft Teams.

From there, students can ask the LearnWise AI assistant questions about their course content and receive precise, contextual answers, with direct links to the relevant moment in the video. No more scrubbing through a 90-minute lecture to find a concept, or uncertainty about whether they understood the material correctly.

Of the partnership, Greg Marschall, CEO at LearnWise AI, shares: “Video is one of the most powerful tools in a modern educator's toolkit, but its potential is often underutilised when it comes to student support. Our integration with YuJa Lumina changes that, giving students instant, contextual answers drawn directly from lecture and course content, at the exact moment they need it.” 

"We are proud to announce our collaboration with LearnWise AI as we continue to facilitate student success in online learning environments," said Nathan Arora, CEO of YuJa. "LearnWise AI's range of capabilities will further support video-based learning in YuJa Lumina while strengthening the flexibility and versatility of existing workflows."

Built around your existing workflow

One of the principles we hold at LearnWise is that AI should fit into how institutions already work, not ask them to rebuild around it. This integration reflects that. YuJa Lumina's existing workflows for students, faculty, and staff remain unchanged. The AI layer adds capability without adding friction.

For institutions already invested in YuJa Lumina as their video platform of choice, LearnWise makes that investment go further. Every recorded lecture becomes part of an intelligent knowledge base. Every student question gets an answer grounded in course content.

Together with YuJa, LearnWise is making it easier for institutions to deliver learning experiences that adapt to how students actually learn.

Accessible, equitable support for every student

Not every student learns at the same pace or retains information the same way. Students who missed a session, are reviewing for an exam, or simply need a concept explained differently now have a consistent, always-on resource they can turn to, directly within their LMS.

This partnership reflects a shared commitment between LearnWise and YuJa to make higher education more accessible, inclusive, and equitable for all students.
