AI grading
EasyClass is an AI grader for teachers that scores student writing against your rubric, highlights the sentences behind each score, and drafts the feedback. Nothing goes back to a student until you approve it.
Free plan · 50 papers free · No credit card
A class set of essays is hours of reading, and the hardest part is staying fair from the first paper to the thirtieth. Paste an essay into a chatbot and you get a number and a paragraph you have to take on trust.
EasyClass works the other way. It shows its reasoning for every criterion, points you to the few papers that really need a second read, and leaves the final call to you. You spend your time on the judgment calls, not on the stack.
Three steps from a stack of papers to feedback in your students’ hands.
Drop in files (PDF, Word, text, or phone photos of handwritten work), paste the essays, or pull them from Google Drive or Google Classroom. Pick your rubric, the grade level, and how strict and how chatty the feedback should be.
Each paper is scored criterion by criterion, with quotes from the student’s writing and a drafted comment. You can close the tab. Grading keeps going and we email you when it’s done.
Start with the papers flagged for you, change any score or comment, and approve. Then share private feedback links or send the grades to Google Classroom.
Anatomy of a graded paper
This is one of the made-up sample essays, graded with the SBAC opinion writing rubric. It’s what the review screen shows for every paper in your stack.
I dont think we should have a four day week. Because it would be bad.
My mom works on fridays and I would have to stay home by myself or go to my aunts house. Also the days would be longer and that is boring. We already sit a lot.
Also we might forget stuff over a long weekend. I forget my spelling words over the weekend already.
So no four day week.
Rubric
Double-check Evidence/Elaboration: it was between Approaching and Meets
Why The paper gives several relevant reasons and personal examples, but support is brief and uneven. It does not develop the reasons enough for Meets.
Each criterion underlines the sentences it used, in its own color. Quotes that aren’t really in the paper are thrown out.
The level comes with a reason that says why it isn’t the level above or below.
When a score was between two levels, the paper goes to Needs a look with one plain reason.
Change the level or rewrite the comment. Nothing reaches the student until you approve.
AI rubric grading
For every criterion, EasyClass quotes the student’s own sentences, picks a level, and says why it isn’t the level above or below. The quotes are highlighted right in the paper, and any quote that isn’t really in the paper is thrown out. When a criterion is a close call, it gets a second look before you see it, and if the two readings differ the paper is flagged for you.
Rubric generator
Use the rubric you already have, or make one in a minute. Paste it in or upload it as a Word file or PDF and EasyClass reads it into criteria and levels. Or describe the assignment in a sentence and the AI writes a rubric for you to edit. You can also start from the standards library and filter by state.
Review in minutes
Papers sort into three lanes. Needs a look lists each flagged paper with one plain reason, like “Double-check Evidence and Reasoning: it was between Approaching and Meets” or “Very short (41 words).” Ready to approve holds the rest: spot-check three we pick at random, then approve the others in one click. Approved is everything you’ve signed off.
Reteach groups
The class view groups students by the criterion they scored lowest on, using approved grades by default. Each group gets one-click buttons that open EasyClass chat with the request already typed in: a mini-lesson, an exit ticket or practice slides for that skill. Student names are left out of the request, and nothing is sent until you press send.
Google Classroom
Connect Google Classroom, pick a course and an assignment, and EasyClass brings in what students turned in. When you’re done, send the approved grades back. For assignments you posted from EasyClass, grades go straight into Classroom as drafts, or returned to students if you choose. For assignments made in Classroom itself, Google doesn’t let other apps set grades, so you download a Classroom CSV with names and points instead.
Feedback students use
Each student gets a private link with your approved scores, the evidence, and your comments. You can turn on two extras. With revise and resubmit, students send a new draft and see an AI estimate of how it would score, while their grade changes only if you change it. With Ask about my feedback, a short chat explains your comments and never writes for them or changes a grade.
Pick one of four sample assignments and it opens already graded, with made-up student papers and a matching rubric from the standards library. You see the full review screen in seconds. Samples are free and never count toward your 50 papers.
Short opinion pieces graded with the Smarter Balanced opinion rubric for grades 3–5: organization and purpose, evidence and elaboration, and conventions.
Graded with the Common Core Argument Writing Rubric (Grades 6-8). Claim and focus, evidence and reasoning: the kind of essay where Approaching or Meets is a real judgment call.
Claim, evidence and reasoning responses graded with the Connecticut NGSS Science Writing Rubric, including whether the evidence really backs the claim.
Short constructed responses graded with the Texas STAAR Science and Social Studies rubric, a single-criterion rubric for quick checks.
You can paste an essay into a chatbot and ask for a grade. Here is what changes when the grader is built for a class set.
| EasyClass | A general chatbot | |
|---|---|---|
| Your rubric | Saved once, used for every paper the same way | Pasted again in every chat |
| Why a score | Quotes from the paper for each criterion, checked against the text | A summary with nothing to check it against |
| Close calls | A second look, then flagged for you | No way to tell a sure score from a guess |
| A class set | Up to 200 papers in one assignment, reviewed in lanes | One essay per message |
| Student names | Roster names kept out of what the AI sees | Whatever you paste |
| Returning work | Private feedback links and Google Classroom, after you approve | Copy and paste each comment |
Every score is a draft until you approve it. A student can’t open feedback, and no grade goes to Google Classroom, before you sign off on that paper. We don’t attach student names from your roster to what the AI sees (names written on the paper itself are read as part of the work), and we don’t train AI models on student work. Read our privacy policy.
Yes. The free plan grades 50 student papers with AI, with no credit card needed. The sample essays are free and don’t count toward the 50. When you need more, EasyClass Pro lifts the 50-paper limit and gives each student five graded revisions per paper instead of two.
No. You do. The AI drafts a score and comment for each criterion, and nothing reaches a student or Google Classroom until you approve that paper. You can change any score or comment first, and a score you change is never overwritten by the AI.
It is close enough to save you hours, and not accurate enough to skip your review, which is why approval is built in. EasyClass shows the evidence for every score and flags close calls so you know where to look. We wrote up what the research says about AI grading accuracy.
Yes. Paste your rubric or upload it as a Word file, PDF or text file, and EasyClass turns it into criteria and levels you can edit. You can also describe the assignment and let the AI draft a rubric, or start from the standards library.
Yes. You can import the papers turned in to a Classroom assignment and send approved grades back. Google only lets the app that made an assignment set its grades, so passback works for assignments you posted from EasyClass. For the rest, download the Classroom CSV.
Yes. Upload photos or scans of handwritten papers, including iPhone photos, and EasyClass reads the writing before grading. You can join several pages into one student’s paper. When the handwriting was hard to read in places, the paper is flagged so you can check it.
We don’t attach student names from your roster to what the AI sees (names written on the paper itself are read as part of the work), and we don’t train AI models on student work. Feedback is shared by private links only after you approve it, and you can turn a link off at any time. See the privacy policy for the details.
It has a writing-pattern check, but it is advisory only. AI detectors make mistakes, so EasyClass never treats the check as proof and never changes a grade because of it. Use it as one clue alongside what you know about the student.
