Description
CheatGPT is a Chrome extension built for college students taking Canvas-hosted quizzes, tests, and homework. It is marketed directly as a way to get undetectable AI answers while the course's own activity log keeps recording as if nothing unusual happened, rather than as a general study aid.

Once installed, the extension reads the question shown on a Canvas quiz page and returns an answer within seconds, along with a short explanation of why it is correct. A "Ghost Mode" is designed to stop Canvas from registering the tab switches and lost-focus events that normally flag a quiz attempt for review. Users can also open a sidebar to ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini directly, or highlight any on-page text to rewrite or summarize it.
CheatGPT fills in one-click answers for multiple-choice, true/false, and multi-select questions, and provides written answers for matching, dropdown, fill-in-the-blank, and essay questions; image-based questions can be answered from a screenshot. It runs on the models behind ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini rather than a single vendor's API, works across any academic subject, and the developer states it works on any school's Canvas instance, including a custom domain, not only the standard Instructure-hosted pages.
CheatGPT charges $10 a month, discounted from a $15 list price, or a one-time $50 lifetime payment, discounted from $80. Payments run through Stripe, and the company offers a refund if it does not work on a given school's Canvas setup within 7 days.
It is aimed squarely at individual students rather than instructors or institutions, and its entire pitch rests on evading the academic-integrity monitoring built into Canvas, which is worth stating plainly since that is the tool's stated purpose. CrowdStrike-style accuracy claims are absent here; CheatGPT's site backs its claims with user testimonials rather than independent verification that Ghost Mode defeats every version of Canvas's proctoring.
