Pricing

An allowance of papers each month, and every feature on every plan. Nothing is sold as unlimited, because marking costs real money each time and a promise nobody can keep is worse than a number.

What counts as a paper

One student’s work, marked once — an essay, or an exam paper however many pages it runs to. Re-marking a paper after changing the key counts again.

Reading an answer key or a rubric you upload also counts as one paper. It is the same work as marking — the whole document, read once, turned into something structured — so it would be dishonest to call it free. You upload a key once per test and then mark a whole class against it. Regenerating a class report is free: the marking behind it has already been paid for.

If a month runs out before the marking does

Extra papers can be bought at any time. They do not expire at the end of the month — they last 12 months — so a pack bought during exam week is not lost on the first.

Trying it first

Signing up gives you 6 papers to see how the marking reads, with no card and nothing to cancel. A school running a proper pilot gets a larger allowance and a set period — ask, and it is set up before you start. When a trial ends, everything already marked stays readable and can be exported for 90 days.

How to buy it

There is no card checkout yet. Email what you want — the plan, whether monthly or annual, and who to invoice — and you will get an invoice back. Payment by transfer activates the account the same day it clears. Schools buying a year at a time are invoiced the way procurement expects, and paying annually is 10 months for twelve.

What a plan does and does not promise is in the terms, and what happens to pupil data is in the privacy notice.
