Is Using Apex Vision AI Considered Cheating?

The Short Answer:

Apex Vision AI is designed as a study supplement, similar to a digital tutor or a solutions manual. Using it to generate explanations, break down complex concepts, or check your work is generally compliant with “Open Book” and “Study Aid” policies.

However: Using Apex Vision AI to bypass proctoring software, strictly closed-note exams, or to represent AI-generated text as your own original work violates our Terms of Service and most university Honor Codes.

The Line Between Studying and Academic Dishonesty

At Apex Vision AI, we believe artificial intelligence is the future of education—but only when used responsibly. We want to ensure our users stay safe and remain within the boundaries of academic integrity.

Here is the official breakdown of how to use Apex Vision AI compliantly.

Acceptable Use (Study Supplement)

These actions are typically considered “smart studying” and are encouraged by our platform:

💡

Concept Explanation

Asking the AI to explain a complex physics problem step-by-step so you understand the method.

🔍

Error Checking

Uploading your own math work to see where you made a calculation error.

📝

Summarization

Using the AI to summarize long research papers to understand the key points faster.

🎯

Practice Problems

Asking Apex Vision AI to “Generate 5 more problems like this one” to practice for an upcoming test.

Prohibited Use (Academic Dishonesty)

These actions violate the Apex Vision AI User Agreement and likely your school’s code of conduct:

⚠️

Real-Time Exam Usage

Using the app during a proctored or closed-book exam to get answers without learning the material.

📋

Plagiarism

Copying and pasting AI-generated essays or code and submitting them entirely as your own work without citation.

🚫

Bypassing Security

Attempting to use our tools to circumvent browser lockdowns or proctoring monitors.

How to Cite Apex Vision AI

Many universities now allow AI assistance if it is properly disclosed. If you use Apex Vision AI to help research a paper or solve a problem set, transparency is your best safety net.

Recommended Citation Format (APA Style Example):
Apex Vision AI. (2025). [Large language model response to user query about specific topic]. https://apexvision.ai

Frequently Asked Questions (Safety & Privacy)

Will my professor know I used Apex Vision AI?

Apex Vision AI prioritizes user privacy. We do not share user logs or chat history with third parties or educational institutions unless legally compelled. However, we strongly advise against submitting AI output directly as your own work, as universities utilize AI-detection software (like Turnitin).

Is Apex Vision AI safe to use on school WiFi?

Yes. Apex Vision AI uses standard HTTPS encryption to ensure your connection is secure. Your browsing activity is encrypted and private.

Does Apex Vision AI solve homework for me?

Apex Vision AI provides answers and explanations. The intent is for you to learn from the explanation. Simply copying the answer without understanding the process defeats the purpose of the tool and academic growth.

Our Stance on Academic Integrity

We built Apex Vision AI to level the playing field, giving every student access to an on-demand tutor. We condemn the use of our technology for cheating.

Not Sure If AI Tools Are Allowed?

If you are unsure if using an AI tool is permitted for a specific class, we recommend sending the following email to your professor:

Subject: Question About AI Study Tools

“Professor, I am using an AI tool called Apex Vision AI to help me generate practice problems and explain concepts I find difficult in the textbook. Is this acceptable use for this course?”
