Frequently asked questions
How does AI grading work?
You upload your question paper and a single scanned PDF of all student answer sheets. Proctor AI splits the papers, reads each answer using handwriting recognition, scores it against your rubric, and drafts feedback. You review and approve every mark before it is final.
How accurate is the AI grading?
Proctor AI reaches around 93% agreement with manual grading in pilot testing. Teachers can review and adjust any AI-generated grade before finalizing, so the result is always teacher-approved.
Can it grade handwritten answer sheets?
Yes. The agent uses handwriting recognition tuned for real, messy classroom handwriting, and understands the structure of the page, including which marks belong to which question and where diagrams sit.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. You can start grading free and upgrade later for higher volumes and team features.
How does integrity analysis work?
The agent flags copying between students and AI-generated answers by surfacing evidence, such as matching phrasing or diagrams, rather than making accusations. The teacher decides what to do with each flag.
Is my students' data secure?
Yes. Proctor AI follows strict data privacy protocols, including encryption, and processes data securely so student information is protected.
