Still Grading Essays Manually?
Every semester, lecturers across universities face the same challenge: stacks of essay answers that must be graded one by one.
Hours Lost to Manual Grading
Grading 30 essays can take 2–3 hours. If you teach 3 classes with 5 essay questions each, you lose an entire day just grading. Time that should be spent on research, mentoring, or preparing course materials.
Inconsistent Grading Due to Fatigue
After grading dozens of essays, concentration drops. Essay #5 and essay #50 may receive different scores despite similar quality. This fatigue bias harms students and undermines academic objectivity.
Students Don't Get Meaningful Feedback
Due to time constraints, most lecturers can only provide a numeric score without explanation. Students don't understand their mistakes, so effective learning doesn't happen.
What if there was a fast way to grade essays that remains accurate, consistent, and provides detailed feedback for every student?
