CheatGPT

What is CheatGPT?

CheatGPT is a paid Chrome extension that reads questions on Canvas quizzes, tests and homework and displays AI-generated answers beside them. Its homepage openly markets it as a cheating assistant for graded coursework.

The extension passes question text to large language models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, then returns a suggested answer with a short explanation. The Chrome Web Store listing adds that each answer carries a confidence score. A sidebar chat and a text selection toolbar extend it beyond quizzes to general study questions and rewriting.

Boast Holdings publishes the extension, according to the store listing and the privacy policy. The listing showed version 1.0.0, last updated on 1 July 2026, with 102 users and no ratings. Directory pages from 2023 describe an older web chatbot on the same domain, so the current product looks like a pivot. Using it on assessed work breaks the academic integrity rules of most schools and universities, and this review does not endorse that use.

Key Features

CheatGPT’s main feature is automatic answer suggestions inside Canvas, supported by a multi-model sidebar and a text toolbar. Most other features exist to serve that single in-quiz workflow.

• In-page answer suggestions: The extension shows a suggested answer and explanation next to each Canvas question. The store listing says a confidence score accompanies every suggestion, which hints at how sure the model is, although it is not a guarantee of correctness.
• Wide question coverage: CheatGPT handles multiple choice, true or false, multi-select, matching, dropdown and fill-in-the-blank questions. The homepage also lists essay prompts and image-based questions, which are processed from a screenshot rather than from page text.
• Multi-model sidebar chat: A side panel gives access to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini for open questions. This lets you ask follow-up questions or request a longer explanation without opening a separate chatbot tab.
• Selection toolbar: Highlighting text on a web page brings up options to rewrite or summarise it. The toolbar works outside Canvas too, so it can shorten readings or rephrase notes on other sites.
• Stored answers for retakes: Answers from earlier attempts are saved and filled in again when a quiz is retaken. The feature mainly helps on courses that allow several attempts at the same question bank.
• Concealment claim: A setting called Ghost Mode is marketed as hiding quiz activity from Canvas monitoring. No independent testing backs this claim, and instructors have other ways to review attempts, so we treat it as unverified marketing.

Pros

CheatGPT’s clearest advantage is speed, because questions are read from the page instead of being copied into another chatbot. The low lifetime price is the second draw.

• Fewer steps than a chatbot: Questions are picked up from the page automatically. Compared with pasting each one into a separate AI tab, this saves time on long practice sets.
• Low one-off cost: A lifetime licence costs $50 and a month costs $10. For a student, that is cheaper than most premium AI subscriptions, which usually charge around $20 every month.
• Choice of models: Access to models from three providers in one sidebar means you can compare replies. Where two models disagree, that difference is a useful signal that the answer needs checking.
• Limited data retention: The privacy policy says question text is hashed rather than stored in readable form. Payments run through Stripe, so card details do not pass through the developer’s own servers.
• Seven-day refund: The homepage offers a refund if you message support within seven days. That gives some protection if the extension fails to work on your school’s Canvas domain.

Cons

Using CheatGPT on graded assessments, which it is built for, counts as academic misconduct at most institutions. The technical limits come second to that risk.

• Academic misconduct risk: Submitting AI answers on graded quizzes breaks most integrity policies. Penalties range from a zero mark to a failed course or suspension, which far outweighs the subscription price.
• Unproven detection claims: The promise that Canvas cannot see the extension has not been independently verified. Lockdown browsers, proctoring tools and unusual answer patterns can still prompt an instructor to review an attempt.
• Imperfect accuracy: Language models still make mistakes on calculations, diagrams and specialist topics. A confidence score does not remove the need to check every answer against course material.
• Tiny, unrated user base: The store listing showed 102 users and no ratings in October 2026. The homepage counter even read zero students, so there is little public evidence about reliability.
• Broad permissions: The store disclosure says the extension handles personal details, authentication information and website content. Granting that access to a little-known publisher is a meaningful privacy trade-off.

Who is Using CheatGPT?

CheatGPT is aimed at college students on Canvas, although its tiny install count means real usage is small. Educators also examine tools like it to understand misconduct risks.

• College students: Canvas users are the stated audience. Most want quick quiz answers, which carries serious integrity risk on graded work.
• Online course learners: Self-paced learners with repeatable quizzes are another target group. The stored-answer feature is designed around those retake settings.
• Revision-focused students: Some students may limit it to ungraded practice sets. Used that way, the explanations can highlight topics that need more study.
• Educators and integrity teams: Instructors and academic integrity staff study such extensions. They use what they learn to redesign assessments and update course policies.

Pricing

CheatGPT costs $10 a month or $50 once for lifetime access, with every feature in both plans (official prices, October 2026).

The site presents both as reductions from $15 and $80. There’s An AI For That still lists a 2023 freemium plan from $2.79 a month, which belongs to the earlier web chatbot rather than this extension.

Disclaimer: Prices on small browser extensions change without notice, so confirm the amount at checkout before you pay.

What Makes CheatGPT Unique?

CheatGPT runs inside the Canvas assessment page itself, reading questions automatically instead of waiting for you to paste them into a chat window. General assistants such as ChatGPT or Gemini answer only what you give them in a separate tab.

That narrow focus on live, graded assessments is also what makes it far riskier than a normal study helper. Tools built for learning, such as Khanmigo, deliberately hold back answers and guide you to the method instead.

Compatibilities and Integrations

CheatGPT works only as a Chrome extension on Canvas, with no API or other learning platforms supported. It runs on standard and custom school Canvas domains.

• Browser: Google Chrome via the Chrome Web Store, at a size of 216 KiB.
• Learning platform: Instructure Canvas, including institutions that use their own domain names.
• AI providers: Models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google power answers and the sidebar.
• Payments and support: Stripe handles billing, with help by email and a Discord community.

CheatGPT Tutorials

Getting started takes a few minutes, but checking your course rules should come before installation.

1. Read your institution’s academic integrity policy on AI tools.
2. Review the permissions listed on the Chrome Web Store page.
3. Install the extension and create an account with your email.
4. Choose the monthly or lifetime plan and note the seven-day refund window.
5. Try it only on an ungraded practice quiz or your own notes.
6. Check each suggestion against lecture material before relying on it.

How We Rated It

A 3.3 for CheatGPT reflects that quick in-page answers are offset by integrity risk, thin support and Canvas-only reach.

Summary

CheatGPT suits Canvas users who want AI explanations shown beside questions without switching tabs. Its main limitation is that it targets graded work, where use can lead to failed courses or disciplinary action. Accuracy varies by subject, and the claims about avoiding detection remain unproven. The publisher is small, and the store listing had no ratings when we looked. If you try it, keep it to practice quizzes and treat every suggestion as something to verify, not a final answer.
