NextStep Agent

Try NextStep without leaving Canvas.

NextStep Agent is a desktop app that runs your school’s Canvas beside an AI assistant that works on it with you. Grading passes, rubric feedback, deadline roundups, and course questions get handled next to the LMS you already use, not instead of it.

Free for macOS and Windows. Sign in to Canvas the way you always do.

Your Canvas, unchanged

Canvas runs in the app's own browser, and you sign in the way you always do. No migration, no IT approval, no API tokens.

An assistant that does the clicking

Ask in plain language. The assistant reads your courses and works Canvas alongside you, drafting feedback, filling in grades, and rounding up deadlines. You review everything it does.

NextStep, before the switch

Agent is the NextStep experience on top of the LMS you already use. When your school is ready for the full platform, the move is ours to earn.
