How it works

Three steps. Done.

No account. No setup. Two ways to import — paste the syllabus text or use your Blackboard iCal URL.

📋

Grab your Blackboard content

Copy syllabus text from your Blackboard course, or go to Tools → Calendar → External Calendar → Subscribe to get your ICS URL.

Paste and parse

Drop the syllabus text or iCal URL into SyllabusAI. Every exam, assignment, quiz, and due date gets pulled out and tagged in seconds.

📅

Download your .ics file

One click. The file imports into Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, Notion Calendar — anything that reads the iCalendar format.

Two ways to import

Pick whichever takes less effort.

Both paths end at the same place — one .ics file with every Blackboard deadline.

📄 Paste syllabus text

Open your Blackboard course, find the Syllabus item, select all and copy. Paste it into SyllabusAI. Table-formatted and paragraph-style syllabi both parse well.

FAQ

Blackboard + .ics export questions.

Straight answers. No fluff.

Does this work with Blackboard?

Yes. Paste the syllabus text you copied out of Blackboard, or use your Blackboard iCal feed URL. Either way SyllabusAI extracts every dated event and hands you a clean .ics file.

Where do I find my Blackboard calendar feed URL?

In Blackboard, go to Tools → Calendar → External Calendar → Subscribe. Copy the ICS URL shown. Paste it into SyllabusAI's iCal URL field.

What exactly is an .ics file?

It's the universal iCalendar format — a plain-text file listing events with dates, times, and titles. Virtually every calendar app reads it: Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, Thunderbird, Proton Calendar, Notion Calendar, and more.

How do I import the .ics file into my calendar app?

Google Calendar: Settings → Import & export → Import. Apple Calendar: double-click the file on Mac, or open it from Files on iPhone. Outlook: Add calendar → Upload from file. Every other calendar app has a similar import option.

Is this free?

Yes — free to start, no credit card. The free plan includes 3 syllabus parses, 5 Google Calendar syncs, and 25 AI study queries every rolling 30 days, which covers a typical semester setup. Power users can upgrade to Pro at $6.99/month for unlimited parsing and syncs.

Will importing the .ics mess up my existing calendar?

No. The file only adds the events inside it — it never deletes or modifies anything. Most apps let you import into a brand-new calendar so your classes stay separate.

Is my Blackboard syllabus stored anywhere?

No. Your syllabus text is processed to extract dates and events, then discarded. We don't store, log, or sell your content.
