Canvascope brings everything in your Canvas and Brightspace courses — readings, assignments, files, due dates — into one search. Whatever you need is always a few keystrokes away.

Built to keep your coursework yours.

Searched on your computer

Your courses are searched right in your browser. Nothing about what you're studying gets sent off to make search work.

You're in control

Signing in and sending PDFs are things you choose to turn on — never hidden defaults running in the background.

No trackers, no ads

Canvascope doesn't follow you around the web or sell your data. It just helps you find your coursework.

Works with Lectra

Find it here. Mark it up on your iPad.

When a reading needs more than a quick look, send it to Lectra — our iPad companion — and annotate it with your Apple Pencil. Your notes stay tied to the original file.
