Classes, exams, assignment due dates, and holiday changes all land on the same calendar - and it can find the times when you and your friends are free. COURSE SYNC. Connect Canvas and Gradescope once, and your courses, assignments, and grades stay in sync - with a live grade dashboard for every class. REGISTRATION PLANNING. Build and compare schedules before you commit, and keep track of what you still need to take. COURSEWORK TOOLS. New assignments ping your phone. Draft, check your answers, and watch your running grade update as scores land. EMAIL AND CHAT. Reach classmates and keep course threads together without leaving your workspace. App One serves students at MIT, Harvard, CMU, Stanford, and Wellesley, plus an open tier for everyone else. An account is required. Notifications keep you ahead of new assignments and reminders - and scheduled alerts fire on time even offline.
