FAQ

Questions teachers ask before getting started

Everything you need to know about GradingPal — pricing, privacy, accuracy, and how it actually works in your classroom.

Is GradingPal free for teachers?

Yes — GradingPal is free for individual US K-12 teachers, with no credit card required. You can grade across every subject and assignment type on the free plan. Paid plans unlock higher submission limits and additional features for power users, schools, and districts.

Does GradingPal grade handwritten work?

Yes. Upload scanned worksheets, math problem sets, or handwritten essays and our AI reads the student responses, applies your rubric, and generates scores plus feedback. Math notation, diagrams, and short-answer responses are all supported.

What subjects and grade levels does GradingPal support?

Every K-12 subject — math, English/ELA, science, social studies, history, world languages, computer science, and more — with the strongest focus on middle and high school classrooms, including AP and honors coursework.

How accurate is GradingPal's AI grading?

Our pedagogy team tested 6 leading large language models on more than 1,500 student essays to build a grading system that aligns closely with experienced human graders. Full methodology and results are published on our research page. Every score is also reviewable by you before it reaches a student.

Is GradingPal FERPA and COPPA compliant?

Yes. GradingPal is fully compliant with FERPA, COPPA, and state student-data privacy laws. Student data is encrypted in transit and at rest, never sold, and never used to train AI models. We also offer a custom Data Processing Addendum (DPA) for districts.

Does GradingPal integrate with Google Classroom?

Yes. Connect Google Classroom in one click to import assignments and student submissions, then sync graded results and feedback back to Classroom once you've reviewed them.

Can I customize the rubric and feedback style?

Absolutely. Paste your own rubric or have GradingPal generate one from your assignment, then tune the feedback tone — warm, encouraging, concise, or formal — to match how you talk to your students. Drafts come back sounding like you wrote them.

Do I have the final say on student grades?

Always. GradingPal generates first-draft scores and feedback in minutes, but every grade flows through your review before it is shared with a student. You can edit scores, rewrite feedback, or approve as-is — teachers stay in the driver's seat.
