What is Graider?

What Graider does

Graider covers the whole teaching cycle in one place, so you are not moving between a separate grader, lesson planner, and gradebook. It grades any kind of assignment and gives each student specific feedback rather than a bare score. The same tool writes full lesson plans from a standard or a topic, including warm-ups, activities, vocabulary, and an assessment. It builds quizzes and tests when you need them. Class analytics update in real time, so you can see grade distributions and catch a student who is slipping before it turns into a pattern. There is also an assistant you can ask about your classes, and it answers from your own data instead of the open web.

Who Graider is for

Graider is made for individual teachers in grades 6 through 12 at US schools. These are the teachers who lose five or more hours a week to grading, often 150 to 300 assignments at a time. You can use it with nothing more than a browser and a free account, without waiting on your IT department or a district contract. Honors sections, regular sections, students with IEP or 504 plans, and English-language learners are all handled directly in the grading settings.

How Graider works

Most AI graders send one prompt that says, in effect, "grade this." Graider runs three passes instead.

1. The first pass pulls out each student's answers, drops the original question text, and notices anything left blank.
2. The second pass grades each question on its own against your rubric, your expected answers, and 18 contextual factors about the student and the assignment. Plagiarism and AI-writing checks run during this pass too.
3. The third pass writes feedback in plain language, quotes what the student actually wrote, and translates it for English-language learners when you have that turned on.

You pick the model, whether that is GPT-4o, Claude, or Gemini, and Graider can run all three and take the middle score when you want a second opinion. Nothing is final until you approve it. The point is to hand you a finished draft and leave the judgment with you.

What makes Graider different

A few things set Graider apart from a general-purpose chatbot or a single-prompt grader.

Grading happens question by question. Each answer is scored against what you expected for that question, so students get credit where they earned it instead of one rounded guess for the whole paper.

Academic honesty is checked over time, not only within one paper. Graider builds a writing profile for each student across their submissions and flags work that suddenly reads nothing like their usual writing.

Accommodations are part of normal grading. IEP and 504 adjustments, plus ELL feedback in Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Portuguese, are set per student rather than bolted on at the end.

Student data stays private. Names and other identifying details are removed before any work goes to an AI provider, and your rosters, grades, and feedback stay in your own account.
