We believe the key to academic integrity lies in creating a motivating, feedback-rich learning environment that is easy to navigate—one that strengthens writing, critical thinking, and engagement while addressing the root causes of dishonesty and dissatisfaction. Detection has its place as a tool, but true academic integrity is built through prevention during the process, not punishment after submission.
Through our integration with Canvas by Instructure, we’re taking this mission further by providing a seamless, unified experience for educators and students. No longer do you need to implement 3+ disparate solutions for course administration, writing feedback, grading automation, and academic integrity. With the Packback + Canvas integration, you can significantly reduce noise, increase educator satisfaction, and enhance student outcomes in one, singular place.
