No training required.

Four steps — and SmartGradr does the heavy lifting for you. If you can upload a file, you already know how to use it.

01
Upload student assessments

Upload student work

Drag and drop scanned pages, photos, or PDFs. One file per student or a combined batch — SmartGradr sorts it automatically.

02
Set grading criteria

Set grading criteria

Upload your rubric or answer key. No rubric? SmartGradr can help you create one. Tell it how strict, how lenient, what to focus on.

03
AI grades every submission

AI grades everything

SmartGradr reads each response, grades it to your rules, and generates detailed feedback for every question — automatically.

04
Review, edit and export

Review, edit & export

Tweak any grade or feedback before exporting a print-ready PDF report. Every section is customizable — you stay in full control.

Core capabilities

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

SmartGradr was built around one goal: getting grading out of your way without trading quality for speed.

📄

Reads any handwriting

95%+ accuracy on handwritten student responses — from tidy print to barely-legible scribbles. No configuration needed.

📐

Fully customizable rubrics

Upload any rubric format — analytical, holistic, hybrid, answer-key-only. SmartGradr automatically understands and applies it.

💬

Detailed student feedback

Every student gets an explanation of what they got right, what they missed, and how to improve — automatically generated.

✏️

Edit anything, anytime

Adjust grades, fix transcriptions, change feedback — even after grading is complete. SmartGradr is a starting point, not a verdict.

🔄

Fast re-grading

Updated your rubric? Re-grade in seconds using the already-extracted text. Two free re-grading credits per assessment, no extra tokens.

📊

Custom PDF reports

Export beautiful, printable reports. Toggle sections on or off — scores, feedback, rubric, answer key. Filter by student, or print the whole class.

Time savings

Slash hours of grading

I used to dread grading long lab reports — especially with students whose handwriting made it nearly impossible to read quickly. SmartGradr handled those with zero issues. It saved me hours. Literally.

I uploaded over 100 pages of student essays, expecting a mess. Instead, I got perfectly organized grading with detailed, thoughtful feedback for every single student. It took a process that normally takes me days and finished it in minutes.

What impressed me most was the feedback quality. SmartGradr doesn't just mark answers right or wrong — it tells students exactly what they missed and how to improve. That kind of consistency is almost impossible when grading for hours.
