No rubric? No problem. The AI builds one for you. Already have a rubric? Upload it and the AI grades against your exact criteria.
Input student responses individually or upload an entire class set. Works with essays, short answers, paragraphs, and structured responses.
Use your existing rubric, choose from standards-aligned templates, or let the AI generate a custom rubric matched to your assignment and grade level.
Receive detailed rubric-based scores and personalized, constructive feedback for every student. Review, adjust, and return in minutes.
The average teacher spends 7-10 hours per week grading. Most of that time goes to essays and written responses where scoring is subjective, feedback is repetitive, and fatigue leads to inconsistency by paper number 20. AI grading eliminates the grind while improving the quality and consistency of every score and comment.
Every score comes with specific, constructive feedback tied to your rubric criteria. Students learn what they did well and exactly what to improve -- not vague comments like "needs work" or "good job."
From rubric creation to batch grading to learning gap analysis, every feature is built to save you time and improve student outcomes.
Build standards-aligned rubrics from scratch in seconds. Specify your grade level, subject, and assignment type. The AI creates a detailed rubric with criteria, point values, and performance level descriptors. Edit and save rubrics for reuse across assignments.
Grade an entire class of 30+ assignments at once against the same rubric. Every student gets an individual score and personalized feedback. The AI maintains consistent scoring standards from the first paper to the last, eliminating grading fatigue.
After batch grading, get a class-level report showing which concepts students struggled with most, which rubric criteria had the lowest scores, and which misconceptions appeared across multiple students. Turn grading data into actionable reteaching priorities.
No more copying and pasting the same feedback. The AI writes unique, constructive comments for each student based on their actual work. Feedback highlights specific strengths, identifies areas for growth, and provides concrete next steps for improvement.
Download graded results with feedback as PDF for printing or digital distribution. Export rubrics, scores, and class summaries. Everything is formatted cleanly and ready to share with students, parents, or administrators.
Your AI grading connects to Ollie, your AI teaching assistant. Ollie remembers your rubrics, grading patterns, and curriculum progress. After grading, Ollie can suggest reteaching lessons, create targeted practice materials, or adjust your weekly prep based on student performance.
The AI grading tool handles text-based assignments across every core subject area. If a rubric can score it, the AI can grade it.
Argumentative, narrative, expository, persuasive
Comprehension, analysis, character study
Lab reports, experiment write-ups, observations
Problem solving with shown work and explanations

Our AI achieves high consistency with teacher grading when using clear rubrics. It evaluates student work against your rubric criteria systematically, eliminating the scoring drift that happens when grading 30+ papers in a row. We always recommend reviewing AI-generated scores before returning work to students -- the AI is a powerful first pass, not a replacement for your professional judgment.
The AI handles essays, short answer responses, paragraph writing, research summaries, lab reports, math problem sets with work shown, reading responses, and structured assignments. It works best with text-based assignments where a rubric can be applied. For multiple-choice assessments, use our AI Quiz Generator instead.
Both. You can input your existing rubric and the AI will grade against it, or you can use the built-in AI rubric generator to create a standards-aligned rubric from scratch. The rubric builder lets you specify criteria, point values, and performance levels. You can also modify AI-generated rubrics before using them.
Upload or input all student responses, select your rubric, and the AI grades every submission against the same criteria. You get individual scores and personalized feedback for each student, plus a class-level summary showing common strengths, weaknesses, and misconceptions. This is especially useful for essays where manual grading takes the longest.
AI grading with rubric-based scoring, personalized comments, and batch grading is included in the Teacher Pro subscription. The standalone rubric builder is available to all users. You can sign up and try the grading tool -- no credit card required to get started.
Yes. Beyond scoring, the AI analyzes student responses to identify common misconceptions, knowledge gaps, and patterns across the class. After batch grading, you get a class-level analysis showing which concepts were most difficult, which rubric criteria had the lowest scores, and suggested reteaching priorities.
Absolutely. We follow FERPA guidelines and take student privacy seriously. Student work is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never use student submissions to train our AI models. We recommend not including student names -- use student numbers or initials instead. You can delete all data at any time.
For each submission, the AI generates specific, constructive feedback tied to your rubric criteria. Instead of generic comments like "good job" or "needs improvement," students get feedback like "Your thesis statement clearly establishes your argument, but your second body paragraph lacks supporting evidence -- consider adding a specific statistic or expert quote." Feedback is encouraging, actionable, and written at an appropriate reading level.
Yes. We offer school and district licenses for Teacher Pro, which includes the AI grading tool, rubric builder, and all Pro features. Contact us at [email protected] for volume pricing. Schools typically see the biggest impact when ELA and Social Studies departments adopt it together, since those subjects have the heaviest grading loads.
Orbit Learn's AI grading is part of a complete teaching platform, not a standalone tool. Your rubrics, grades, and feedback integrate with Ollie, your AI teaching assistant, who remembers your standards, curriculum progress, and teaching style. Ollie can use grading insights to suggest reteaching lessons, create targeted practice, or adjust your weekly prep. Other tools grade in isolation -- Orbit Learn connects grading to your entire instructional workflow.
Join thousands of teachers who grade a full class set in minutes -- with better feedback than they wrote by hand.
