Examino
Examino is an AI grading tool built for teachers, covering any subject and any level, from middle school to university. Its AI grading follows each teacher’s own rubric, whether the work is a handwritten exam or a typed essay.
Teachers drop in a multi-student PDF from the photocopier and Examino separates it into individual submissions. Photos, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files work too, as does a smartphone scan via QR code, no app needed.
For every submission, teachers get a suggested score with criterion-level comments, which they review, change and validate before exporting to PDF or Word. Examino then highlights the class’s most common mistakes and creates remediation exercises.
Over 30,000 teachers rely on it for AI grading. Start with 10 free papers a month, then plans from $7.50 a month, plus licenses for schools and universities.
Data is hosted in the EU under GDPR, student names are redacted automatically, and submissions are never used to train AI models.
