AI Oral Grading Tool for Teachers
GradingPal is the AI oral grading tool built specifically for K-12 teachers. It automates rubric-based scoring of speeches, oral presentations, debates, and spoken assessments — helping you reclaim 60-80% of your grading time while delivering precise, actionable feedback on both content and delivery.
Grading oral presentations manually is extremely time-consuming and subjective, often requiring teachers to watch dozens of recordings while taking detailed notes. GradingPal solves this by combining automatic transcription, advanced rubric-based evaluation, and personalized feedback.
