Check the load location before taking moments.A focused assessment workspace
Keep the assessment you already teach. Use your problem statement, expected answers and marking criteria to guide AI-assisted review of student PDFs.
Bring worked solutions into a rubric-led workflow. Review the setup, method and calculations against the criteria you define.
Problem sets & worked solutionsSet criteria for calculations, interpretation and discussion. Review AI feedback alongside the submitted report before approving results.
PDF reports & technical analysisQueue scanned or digital PDFs, coordinate assigned TAs, and keep each submission’s grading history and review separate.
Written exams & quizzesFrom submission to feedback
Connect your assessment, AI grading, teaching-team review and final feedback in one course workspace.
Go to your workspaceSave an assessment version with your rubric, expected answers and marking guidance. Your criteria set the direction.
Add student PDFs for document processing and AI-assisted grading. Follow each submission’s status and retry failed runs.
Inspect the original work, revise scores and comments, and add annotations. AI output is a draft to check, not a final authority.
Instructors approve results and control feedback release. Students see their own released feedback; teaching teams can export results to Excel.
One assessment. Connected perspectives.
Each person gets a workspace suited to their role. Administrators manage access; instructors keep control of assessment decisions and feedback release.
Develop marking guidance, save assessment versions, calibrate with approved examples, coordinate TAs and approve results.
Process assigned submissions, inspect AI assessments, adjust marks and add annotations while keeping a record of the review.
Access your own released results and instructor-approved feedback in your course workspace. Internal teaching-team notes remain separate.
More than a grading prompt
From reading the submission to refining your marking guidance, the tools stay connected to the assessment and its review history.
Process scanned and digital submissions with header redaction and OCR, then carry the extracted work into the grading pipeline.
Use a single marker or a marker and reviewer workflow. Comparison, panel and consensus modes are also supported when enabled by your administrator.
Refine marking guidance using your rubric, approved examples and assessment decisions, with every change reviewed and approved by you.
Add manual annotations or generate AI-assisted annotated PDFs. Review the comments and marks against the original submission.
Assign access, revise scores, retain review history and separate internal notes from the feedback released to students.
Filter grading history, export results to Excel and release approved feedback. Canvas grade delivery is available after institution-specific configuration.
A few useful details
Practical answers for your teaching team.
Student work in PDF format, including scanned handwritten solutions and digital reports. Clear scans help document processing. Check the interpretation of equations, diagrams and handwriting during review.
Provide your rubric, expected answers, marking guidance and examples. Saved assessment versions keep that context attached to a run. Calibration uses approved graded samples to propose refinements that you review before saving.
Your teaching team reviews the AI assessment, adjusts marks and comments, and approves results before release. AI can make mistakes, including in equations and diagrams; instructor review remains part of the workflow.
No. The current grading pipeline uses external AI providers. Account access is controlled, but that is different from fully private AI processing. Confirm your institution’s requirements before uploading student work.
Access is administrator-approved. Your administrator assigns roles and course access, and instructors organize assessments and TA responsibilities. Sign in with an approved account to get started.
