Grade Sync
Real-time Canvas grade sync: always know where you stand
ClassOS connects directly to your Canvas LMS account and syncs your grades the moment professors post them. No more refreshing Canvas 10 times a day.
- Canvas posts a grade
- ClassOS checks, hourly
- Change detected
- You hear about it
and again, next hour
Why this matters
The Thursday night you were not watching
Your professor posts the midterm on a Thursday night, days after you took it, with no email and no announcement. You find out the next time you happen to open Canvas, and by then the deadline to do anything about it is closer than it was. ClassOS checks every hour, so the grade reaches you the night it lands, while there is still something you can do.

How it works
- 1
Connect your Canvas account
Paste your Canvas API token (the same one you use to log in to Canvas). ClassOS stores it encrypted and never shares it.
- 2
ClassOS syncs your grades automatically
Every hour (or on demand), ClassOS pulls your latest grades from Canvas and detects any changes. New grade? You get notified.
- 3
Act on it, not just see it
When a grade drops, Scout is right there to generate a recovery plan, calculate what you still need on the final, or explain where points were lost.
Common questions
How does ClassOS get my grades from Canvas?
You connect with your Canvas API token (a secure key from your Canvas account settings). ClassOS uses the official Canvas API, the same way Canvas apps work.
How often are grades synced?
Every hour, plus you can trigger a manual sync anytime. Most grade changes show up within an hour of posting.
Does ClassOS work with my school's Canvas?
Yes. If your school runs Instructure Canvas, ClassOS works. ClassOS was built at Auburn and works at any Canvas school.
