About Canvas AI Assistant

Canvas AI Assistant lets you ask questions about your Canvas courses in plain English — due dates, assignment details, syllabus policies, and lecture content — instead of clicking through nested course tabs. Features: - Automatically indexes all your active courses — assignments, files, syllabus, and announcements - Ask questions across all your classes at once, no need to pick a course first - Reads real PDF lecture slides and readings, not just filenames - At-a-glance dashboard shows your next few upcoming assignments, color-coded by urgency - Tracks your current and final grade per course, with an honest "not posted yet" when nothing's graded - See what's been posted in each course, with full message content on request - Natural follow-up questions work within a session — no need to repeat context every time - See exactly when your data was last synced, with one-click manual refresh - Never guesses — clearly states when something isn't in your course data, and cites its source - Runs as a persistent side panel that stays open while you browse - Works with any Canvas-based school Setup requires your own free Claude API key (from platform.claude.com) and your school's Canvas domain — entered once in the extension's settings. Your key and data stay on your device; nothing is sent anywhere except directly to Anthropic's API. Open source: github.com/LukaGabr/canvas-ai-assistant
