About Syla for Canvas

Syla connects your real coursework to the AI assistant you already use. Instead of uploading the same lecture slides over and over and re-explaining your class from scratch, connect Canvas once. Syla builds a searchable index of each course from your lectures, readings, assignments, announcements, and syllabus, and makes it available to ChatGPT when you ask. Ask what a concept means and get an answer from your professor's own slides, with the file and page number. Ask what changed and get the announcement. Ask what to study and get the relevant course sources. HOW IT WORKS: 1. Create a Syla account 2. Install this extension and sign in 3. Choose which classes to connect 4. Connect Syla to ChatGPT WHAT IT NEVER DOES: - Never asks for or receives your Canvas password - Never reads outside Canvas. Background access happens only if you enable automatic sync for your Canvas site - Never writes to Canvas: no submissions, posts, or changes - Never sells your data or uses it for advertising Syla reads Canvas through the session already in your browser, which is why it works at any school without your university needing to approve anything. Syla is not affiliated with or endorsed by Instructure, Canvas, Anthropic, or OpenAI.
