Valid8

Inspiration

Nobody enjoys waiting weeks or even months for grades. We created a tool to help TAs and other educators accelerate their grading so they have more time for teaching/helping students.

What it does

Organizes, grades and leaves feedback on student assessments automatically. Educators can upload answer keys and submissions, let AI generate per-question marks and feedback, and share targeted reteaching recommendations with students or TAs.
