Coursebird's Planner: this week's work from four made-up classes in one list. A quiz already turned in, a lab due tonight, a problem set whose due date moved, an essay draft and a midterm exam, with a six-day countdown to the exam and a 93.8% grade in biology.

Questions

Does Coursebird work at my school?

Most likely. Coursebird works with the course system used by most US colleges, and reads the same things you see when you log in to your school's course site, so your school doesn't have to set anything up.

What does Coursebird read, and what does it never touch?

It reads your classes' assignments, due dates, announcements, grades, modules and syllabus, each course's home page and Files list, and the text of your lecture files. It never sees your password, never opens a quiz or exam or other students' work on your school's site, and never submits, posts or changes anything there. Work in an outside courseware tool (such as Cengage MindTap) opens only when you ask about it in Coursebird's chat and confirm, and opening it can count as starting that activity.

Can my professor see that I use it?

Nothing you do in Coursebird appears on your school's site. When you sync, the extension reads your classes with your own login, the way your browser does when you open your course pages, so those reads look like your own visits. Coursebird never posts, submits or messages anyone.

Is it allowed?

Coursebird only reads what you can already see, on your own login, when you ask it to. It uses the calendar link your school's course site gives every student for apps like Google Calendar. Some schools have their own rules about outside apps; if you're unsure, your school's IT help page will say.

Is it really free?

Yes. The list, reminders, calendar, grades and change alerts are free. If we ever add a paid option, it will be for heavier AI use, the price will be shown upfront, and it will never renew without asking.

Where is my data kept?

On your own computer or phone. Our server keeps only your account (your email and a scrambled form of your password), never your classes or grades. You can delete your account and everything with it at any time.

Start the semester with nothing hiding.
