No, and we won't pretend they do. The free plan is 3 lessons in total — a lifetime trial, not a weekly allowance. The weekly reset belongs to Plus: 120 minutes, refilled every Monday.

120 minutes of tutoring a week, resetting on Monday at 00:00 UTC. Each lesson can run up to 120 minutes, subject to your remaining allowance — and pausing a lesson pauses the meter too.
One sitting with Lumi on the board: up to 10 minutes on the free plan, up to 120 minutes on Plus. Unused allowance doesn't roll into next week.
Each subscription is for one learner. If you need cover for a household or a class, get in touch and we'll sort something out.
