CoGrader

What is CoGrader?

CoGrader is an AI grading assistant for educators that evaluates student writing against rubrics and provides detailed feedback while teachers keep control. No grade reaches students without educator approval. The vendor reports 100,000+ teachers in 16,000+ schools across all 50 US states and 2.5 million essays graded.

Key capabilities of CoGrader

How CoGrader works

Teachers import assignments from an LMS or upload files, select a rubric and CoGrader scores each submission and drafts comments. Teachers review and edit grades and comments before publishing. Student data uses anonymized identifiers and stored content is encrypted.

Who uses CoGrader?

K-12 and AP teachers use CoGrader to cut grading time. The vendor says teachers save about 80% of grading time.

CoGrader pricing

The Starter plan is free indefinitely with 100 submissions per month. Paid plans add submissions, integrations and analytics, but the homepage does not list their prices.

CoGrader alternatives

CoGrader is compared with MagicSchool AI and Brisk Teaching, which are broader teacher toolkits, and with language practice apps that are unrelated to grading.
