The boundaries

It acts as you — and only as you.

What actually happens when I connect it?

One consent screen, on our site. You see the app's name and where it sends you back.

Can it do more than I could?

It uses your account and your permissions. Nothing it can do, you couldn't do yourself.

Does it get write access automatically?

Reading and changing are asked for separately.

Can my assistant see the answer key?

Answer keys stay with the teacher. A student's assistant never sees them.

What if I want to stop?

Disconnect any time in Settings → Connected apps.

Your students' assistants work inside your homework.

The homework you assign is what their assistant reads. Answers come back into the same editor you already use, with your feedback in place — you don't change anything about how you teach.

Fair questions

Which assistants work today?

Claude — web, desktop, mobile and Claude Code — works today. ChatGPT connects through its connectors, where developer mode may still be needed. Gemini's custom connector support is rolling out; the address is ready for it.

Does it cost anything?

Connecting is free. You pay for the platform the same way you do now.

I don't have a teacher yet.

Then start with the free English test: you'll get your level and a plan, and your assistant can run your daily lesson and flashcards from day one.

What can the assistant see?

Only what you can. Your homework, your exercises, your review queue — and, if you teach, your roster and your lessons.

Does my conversation get sent to CoverTheGaps?

No. Your assistant calls specific tools, and we receive the tool call and its arguments — not your chat.

Open the chat you already have. Add one address.
