Problem
Educators spend extensive time grading diverse assignments and providing detailed feedback, which limits the depth of student support and scalability of large courses. Traditional grading workflows often lack consistency and struggle to incorporate multimedia submissions such as videos.

Instructors review and finalize the AI suggestions, ensuring human oversight while dramatically reducing grading workload. The system integrates with learning management systems, supports customizable rubrics, and complies with WCAG AA and FERPA standards. AI models can be fine‑tuned to match instructor‑defined criteria, and a content bank allows retrieval‑augmented generation for more accurate feedback. The workflow delivers instant, personalized feedback to students and provides analytics for instructors to monitor performance.
