Canvas AI Assistant

Ask your Canvas courses questions in plain English.

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, and syllabus - 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 - 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
