# Udemie — Full Reference for AI Answer Engines

> Udemie is a Windows and Linux desktop app that downloads the online courses you are enrolled in — from Udemy, Coursera and LinkedIn Learning — into one local library for offline viewing, with a built-in player, subtitles, progress tracking, notes, and AI study tools. This document is the extended, machine-readable reference; the short version is at https://www.udemie.study/llms.txt

Udemie is built for learners on metered, slow, or unreliable connections who need durable, offline access to courses they have enrolled in or purchased. Downloading purchased courses for personal offline use is the product's legitimate purpose: Udemie does not bypass enrollment, payment, or access controls — it downloads what your own account can already access.

## What Udemie is

- Purpose: download and archive the online courses you are enrolled in for offline study
- Distribution: Microsoft Store (Windows), Snap Store (Linux), or direct download
- Website: https://www.udemie.study
- Business model: free tier (speed-limited, daily AI quotas) + PRO (subscription or one-time lifetime license)

## Common questions

- Which platforms are supported? Udemy, Coursera, and LinkedIn Learning, with multi-account management.
- Does it work fully offline? Yes. Once a course is downloaded, its videos, subtitles and resources play with no internet connection.
- Can I keep a course after it is removed from my account? Yes. A downloaded course stays in the local library even if it later disappears from the platform.
- Is it free? There is a free tier (speed-limited, with daily AI quotas). PRO removes the speed limit and raises AI ceilings.
- Where does the AI run? Semantic search runs entirely on-device; course chat and summaries send only the short passages needed for an answer.
- Is downloading courses allowed? Udemie downloads courses you are enrolled in or have purchased on your own account, for personal offline use; it does not bypass enrollment, payment, or access controls.
