Grade essays with rubric-based AI feedback in one click, directly within your existing classroom tools like Google Docs and Canvas.

For educators buried in grading, GradeAssist offers a direct path to reclaiming their time. It's not a separate platform; it's a Chrome extension that works where you already do, including Google Classroom, Docs, Canvas, and Toddle. This means zero time wasted learning a new system. The core function is its AI-powered essay grader, which uses your specific teaching rubric to analyze student work. It generates 'Smart Annotations' that pinpoint successes and areas for improvement, providing the detailed, consistent feedback that students need but which is incredibly time-consuming to produce manually. Beyond grading, it offers a suite of academic integrity tools. It has a built-in plagiarism checker and an AI writing detector powered by Pangram, designed to be unbiased against non-native speakers. A unique 'Writing Playback' feature even lets you rewind and replay a student's writing process to identify struggles or potential misconduct. Crucially, the platform is built with school data policies in mind, stating compliance with FERPA, COPPA, and SOPPA, which is a critical requirement for any tool handling student work. By automating the most repetitive parts of grading, GradeAssist frees up teachers to focus on high-impact instruction and one-on-one student engagement.
