Five steps. One evening.

Follow a real batch of 200 papers from rubric to results. Scroll through the five scenes — you’ll be done before the chai goes cold.

Step 01 / 05

You set the rubric.

Upload your question paper or marking scheme and MarkWell drafts the rubric for you — or write it yourself: marks per question, must-have keywords, partial-credit rules. The AI grades your way, not its way.

Your rubric · your rules
Step 02 / 05

Add the answer sheets.

Snap photos in class, upload scans from the office copier, or hand the whole bundle to our scanning service. Pages sort and split themselves into per-student papers — 200 sheets become 200 students without you touching a stapler.

Auto-split per student

Step 03 / 05

It reads like a teacher.

Handwriting OCR built for real student writing — rushed, slanted, crammed into the margin. Every answer is graded against your rubric with a written reason and a confidence score beside the mark. Never a black box.

Step 04 / 05

You have the final say.

Skim the marked queue. Keep a mark with a tap, or override it — the change carries your initials. Nothing reaches a student until you approve it.

Step 05 / 05

Results go out, marked in the margins.

Every student gets their actual paper back — annotated, explained, exactly as you approved it — plus a personal report. You get class analytics that show what to reteach. Download, email, or open in the student portal.
