How we've done

Essays graded

EssayGrader analyzes essays with the power of AI. Our software is trained on massive amounts of diverse text data, including books, articles and websites. This gives us the ability to provide accurate and detailed writing feedback to students and save teachers loads of time. We are the perfect AI powered grading assistant for teachers.

EssayGrader analyzes essays for grammar, punctuation, spelling, coherence, clarity and writing style errors. We provide detailed reports of the errors found and suggestions on how to fix those errors. Our error reports help speed up grading times by quickly highlighting mistakes made in the essay.

Bulk uploading

Uploading a single essay at a time, then waiting for it to complete is a pain. Bulk uploading allows you to upload an entire class worth of essays at a single time. You can work on other important tasks, come back in a few minutes to see all the essays perfectly graded.

Custom rubrics

We don't assume how you want to grade your essays. Instead, we provide you with the ability to create the same rubrics you already use. Those rubrics are then used to grade essays with the same grading criteria you are already accustomed to.

Sometimes you don't want to read a 5000 word essay and you'd just like a quick summary. Or maybe you're a student that needs to provide a summary of your essay to your teacher. We can help with our summarizer feature. We can provide a concise summary including the most important information and unique phrases.

AI detector

Our AI detector feature allows teachers to identify if an essay was written by AI or if only parts of it were written by AI. AI is becoming very popular and teachers need to be able to detect if essays are being written by students or AI.

Create classes to neatly organize your students essays. This is an essential feature when you have multiple classes and need to be able to track down students essays quickly.

Teachers can now allocate more time to personalized instruction, classroom engagement, and curriculum development, rather than being bogged down by the time-consuming task of manual essay evaluation.

Moreover, the AI Essay Grader enhances objectivity in grading. By removing potential biases and inconsistencies inherent in manual grading, educators can ensure that every student receives a fair and unbiased evaluation of their work.

Top questions from our FAQs

Student Question

I am scared of using AI because of plagiarism

Our tools do not give you answers. We focus only on giving guidance and feedback on what you have already written. The feedback you receive aims to give enough but not everything, for example: Hey, you did a good job introducing X but you didn't really criticaly evaluate X as required in your marking criteria.

Now imagine this example but across your entire assignment.

What happens with the assignments I provide?

Your assignments and assignment critera that you provide is processed through ChatGPT's APIs owned by OpenAI. The data given through their APIs is not used to train their models. We securely store your data on our servers until you tell us you want your data deleted. You can learn more about how your data is stored and managed by looking at our terms of use and our privacy policy.

Choose from a huge range of marking rubrics

Each marking rubric has been trained by an expert examiner. As a result, not only is the marking accurate and the feedback relevant, but it is also delivered in a format and style that allows students to make tangible improvements.

Why choose Top Marks?

feature-item-icon-1

Expertly Crafted Rubrics

Our unique marking rubrics & methods have been honed by the same team behind Accolade Press (the boutique publisher behind the unique study guide range geared towards high-achieving students). Accordingly, our AI marking yields exceptional results and feedback.

feature-item-icon-2

More Consistent than Chat Bots

Merely running an essay through popular chat bots will also lead to inconsistencies of up to 10 marks. We have developed a unique method that allows us to generate highly incisive feedback from large language models, while also ensuring far greater consistency when assigning a final grade (+/- 1.5).

feature-item-icon-3

More Consistent than Humans

According to OFQUAL research, human markers are deeply inconsistent: when presented with a 40 mark essay, the discrepancy between the highest and lowest mark awarded can be as large as 10 marks. With Top Marks AI, you can eliminate this uncertainty, and deliver consistent, fairer results.

feature-item-icon-4

Award Winning

The Top Marks AI team also oversee Accolade Tuition - the elite tuition agency that has been identified by the prestigious Spears Magazine as a leader in the field.

Our marking tools run all content through a powerful AI detector, so teachers can have confidence that the material they are assessing is truly the students own.

Can the handwriting-to-text converter read the handwriting of any student accurately?

It is comparable to a human reader: it can decipher most hand-writings, though will sometimes make a good guess when the handwriting is particularly difficult to decipher. We have found that, at times, it delivers better results than a human examiner.

If my marking needs go beyond the packages detailed above, what should I do?

If your demands are more intensive than our premium package, please reach out to [email protected] and we will organise a bespoke quote.

Can Top Marks help teachers identify whether work submitted by students has been AI generated?

Up to a point! There is an ongoing cat-and-mouse game between tools designed to help mask whether text has been generated with AI, and tools designed to identify AI generated text. We have integrated the most advanced AI detectors into Top Marks, and we are continually updating our capabilities to detect generated content.

Top Marks AI offers powerful batch marking features to streamline the grading process: (1) Simultaneously mark multiple essays, whether typed or handwritten.

Two human graders are assigned to each score, often taking weeks or months to grade. To remove any bias, grades are calculated by taking the average score of the two. That process proved to be both expensive and time-consuming.

Frequently asked questions.

Our AI Grader becomes an expert in grading your assignments by first “learning” your grading metrics and process. This learning is done through submitting assignments that have been graded by a human to the algorithm. The more human-graded assignments that are submitted to the AI Grader, the more accurate they will become. Once the AI Grader has been trained, it will use this corpus of information to grade new submissions with nearly the same results as those that the human graders would give.

The AI grader is extremely accurate and comes within a 1% difference of the median score given by human graders.

Our AI grader is extremely efficient and can grade long written answers in less than 5 minutes. From the time the answers and dataset are shared with our team, the process typically takes 24-48 hours before final grades are assigned. 

Our AI Grader can grade in over 100 languages.

Handwritten assignments can be graded in English through our AI Grader and our OCR technology.

Meet TopMarks AI – The AI Tool That Automates Essay Marking For Schools and Corporates

A new AI startup is helping schools, universities and corporations to automatically mark tests and essays.

Meet TopMarks AI – the purpose-build AI solution that marks essays in seconds and is gaining popularity across universities and corporates in the UK and US.

Whilst some examinations are marked using computers, the manual task of grading millions of papers for students and graduates across the world is a long, expensive and tiring exercise.

About TopMarks AI and Its Founder

The company is the brainchild of London-based Richard Davis, who completed his Masters at Cambridge University.

“I was working with different publishing houses and have always been surrounded by masses of content. My brother has been talking about AI for years and this encouraged me to learn code and build TopMarks during lockdown.”

“I discovered that the market for automated essay marking was very scarce and wanted to take the headache out of exam marking and deliver something in minutes, not weeks.”

“We ran a successful test with a prestigious institution, in which a batch of tests were marked by both Top Marks AI and by the institution’s own human assessors — both using the same mark scheme — and the results showed a 99% consistency in results. At this point, I knew I was onto something.”

ai essay marking tool

How TopMarks AI Can Be Used For Essay Marking

After selecting the marking tool for the qualification/exam board/module of your choice, you simply input the essay or response, alongside the appropriate contextual data.

Top Marks generates incisive, specific and thorough written feedback, alongside actionable constructive criticism.

Users can choose from a range of marking rubrics, what are commonly known as mark schemes. This includes all subjects for KS1 to KS3, GCSE, A-Level and International Baccalaureate.

With free trials available for examiners and schools, the startup has also gained interest in the US for large corporations looking to mark the application essays of graduate schemes.

“Chat GPT certainly brought AI to the mainstream ,” explains Davis. “Now people are looking at AI solutions to solve boring and time-consuming problems.”

“Importantly, we have a plagiarism detector, which has never been more crucial with the use of chatbots and AI tools to write essays – and building this into our solution has been essential.”

“We have big aspirations for TopMarks AI. This includes perfecting the user experience and building a simple dashboard for examiners and invigilators. At the heart of our business, the accuracy of essay marking and keeping results consistent is our number 1 priority.”

CoGrader: the AI copilot for teachers.

You can think of CoGrader as your teaching assistant, who streamlines grading by drafting initial feedback and grade suggestions, saving you time and hassle, and providing top notch feedback for the kids. You can use standardized rubrics and customize criteria, ensuring that your grading process is fair and consistent. Plus, you can detect if your student used ChatGPT to answer the assignment.

CoGrader considers the rubric and your grading instructions to automatically grade and suggest feedback, using AI. Currently CoGrader integrates with Google Classroom and will soon integrate with other LMS. If you don't use Google Classroom, let your LMS provider know that you are interested, so they speed up the process.

Try it out! We have designed CoGrader to be user-friendly and intuitive. We offer training and support to help you get started. Let us know if you need any help.

Privacy matters to us and we're committed to protecting student privacy. We are FERPA-compliant. We use student names to match assignments with the right students, but we quickly change them into a code that keeps the information private, and we get rid of the original names. We don't keep any other personal information about the students. The only thing we do keep is the text of the students' answers to assignments, because we need it for our grading service. This information is kept safe using Google’s secure system, known as OAuth2, which follows all the rules to make sure the information stays private. For a complete understanding of our commitment to privacy and the measures we take to ensure it, we encourage you to read our detailed privacy policy.

CoGrader finally allows educators to provide specific and timely feedback. In addition, it saves time and hassle, ensures consistency and accuracy in grading, reduces biases, and promotes academic integrity.

Soon, we'll indicate whether students have used ChatGPT or other AI systems for assignments, but achieving 100% accurate detection is not possible due to the complexity of human and AI-generated writing. Claims to the contrary are misinformation, as they overlook the nuanced nature of modern technology.

CoGrader uses cutting-edge generative AI algorithms that have undergone rigorous testing and human validation to ensure accuracy and consistency. In comparisons to manual grading, CoGrader typically shows only a small difference of up to ~5% in grades, often less than the variance between human graders. Some teachers have noted that this variance can be influenced by personal bias or the workload of grading. While CoGrader works hard to minimize errors and offer reliable results, it is always a good practice to review and validate the grades (and feedback) before submitting them.

CoGrader is designed to assist educators by streamlining the grading process with AI-driven suggestions. However, the final feedback and grades remain the responsibility of the educator. While CoGrader aims for accuracy and fairness, it should be used as an aid, not a replacement, for professional judgment. Educators should review and validate the grades and feedback before finalizing results. The use of CoGrader constitutes acceptance of these terms, and we expressly disclaim any liability for errors or inconsistencies. The final grading decision always rests with the educator.

Just try it out! We'll guide you along the way. If you have any questions, we're here to help. Once you're in, you'll experience saving countless hours and procrastination, and make grading efficient, fair, and helpful.

AI Grader Average Deviation from Real Grade

Our AI grader matches human scores 82% of the time* AI Scores are 100% consistent**

Graph: A dataset of essays were graded by professional graders on a range of 1-10 and cross-referenced against the detailed criteria within the rubric to determine their real scores. Deviation was defined by the variation of scores from the real score. The graph contains an overall score (the average of all criterias) as well as each individual criteria. The criteria are the premade criteria available on Smodin's AI Grader, listed in the graph as column headings. The custom rubrics were made using Smodin's AI Grader custom criteria generator to produce each criteria listed in Smodin's premade criterias (the same criteria as the column headings). The overall score for Smodin Premade Rubrics matched human scores 73% of the time with our advanced AI, while custom rubrics generated by Smodin's custom rubric generator matched human grades 82% of the time with our advanced AI. The average deviation from the real scores for all criteria is shown above.

* Rubrics created using Smodin's AI custom criteria matched human scores 82% of the time on the advanced AI setting. Smodin's premade criteria matched human scores 73% of the time. When the AI score differed from the human scores, 86% of the time the score only differed by 1 point on a 10 point scale.

** The AI grader provides 100% consistency, meaning that the same essay will produce the same score every time it's graded. All grades used in the data were repeated 3 times and produced 100% consistency across all 3 grading attempts.

Ethical Considerations in Using AI Essay Generator Tools

ai essay marking tool

Using an AI essay generator offers convenience, especially when facing tight deadlines or a challenging essay topic. Nevertheless, using these tools raises ethical considerations that must be carefully addressed to uphold academic integrity and ensure the delivery of ethical, high-quality work.

1. Authenticity of Generated Content

An AI essay generator can help streamline the writing process, but ensuring the final product remains authentic is essential. Academic essays should genuinely reflect the student's understanding and perspective, not just the output of an AI essay writer. To maintain this authenticity, balance AI-generated content with your input. While AI can provide a solid foundation, the generated text must be supplemented with original content and critical thinking skills.

2. Maintain Academic Integrity

Maintaining academic integrity is crucial when using AI essay writing tools. While an AI essay generator can offer stylistic suggestions and help with structuring, the human writer must ensure that the content adheres to academic standards. Acknowledge any significant influence of the AI tool on the final product to uphold transparency and academic honesty.

3. Acknowledge AI Assistance

While AI essay writers are becoming increasingly sophisticated, it is vital to acknowledge their role in the writing process, particularly in academic contexts where original content is highly valued. Clearly stating the use of an AI writer can help distinguish between the tool's contributions and the writer's efforts, thereby preserving the essay’s credibility.

4. Balance AI and Human Input

An AI essay generator offers advanced features like natural language processing and plagiarism checkers, which are excellent tools for refining essays. However, relying solely on AI-generated content can lead to a lack of depth and personal insight. Human writers should use AI to enhance their writing, not replace it. Balancing AI input with human creativity ensures that the final product is not only technically correct but also meaningful and engaging.

5. Dependence on Technology

Overdependence on AI essay writing tools can diminish writing skills over time. While these tools can ease the daunting writing task, they should be manageable. Developing and maintaining strong writing and critical thinking skills is essential for producing high-quality academic essays. AI tools, including free versions and trials, should be used to complement, not replace, the skills honed through traditional writing practices.

Key Takeaway

Using the best AI essay generator tools offers many benefits for writing essays, research papers, and blog posts. These tools can help overcome writer’s block, make an essay longer , and ensure you hit your desired word count. Whether you're working on different types of essays or more complex research papers, a good AI essay writer can guide you through the process with its robust features and ability to add specific details.

However, it is crucial to approach artificial intelligence in content creation with ethical considerations. While AI can expand content and enhance key points, human input is necessary to maintain authenticity and responsibility. Incorporating AI into the writing process should involve humanizing the content and ensuring the final piece reflects thoughtful and ethical writing practices. Good AI tools can assist in content creation, but they should complement human creativity and effort.

Ai tools fuel rise of fake research papers on google scholar.

  • Share to Facebook
  • Share to Twitter
  • Share to Linkedin

AI ethics are in question when scientific papers use AI without disclosing or AI is tapped to ... [+] produce completely fake research results.

There’s a quote frequently attributed to Mark Twain that goes, “A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get on its boots.” Whether or not Twain truly said that, a reality in the age of AI is it’s becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish truth from fiction .

New evidence supporting that fact comes from a group of Swedish researchers that just issued its findings regarding a growing number of fake scientific papers published to Google Scholar . The study found that more than 130 submissions either used AI without proper disclosure or were entirely faked using AI tools.

Google Scholar Not So Scholarly?

The researchers decided to conduct a mini-scrape of the Google Scholar index looking for two commonly generated phrases that public AI tools such as ChatGPT or Claude provide as part of the answers produced in response to prompts. The two phrases are:

  • "as of my last knowledge update"
  • "I don\'t have access to real-time data"

If either or both of those obvious genAI phrases were found in one of the papers uploaded to Google Scholar the team flagged it, and looked it over for proper acknowledgement that an AI tool was used as part of that specific paper’s study methodology.

The search flagged 227 papers, of which 139 papers failed to cite, mention or reference any use of AI—despite its clear use. It’s worth noting that Google Scholar reportedly has more than 389 million records on its website and the researchers’ sample represents a miniscule 0.0000003573% of all published papers.

Google Warns Millions Of Android Users—Do Not Install These Apps

Ukrainian troops breached russian border defenses 20 miles west of the kursk salient—but didn’t get very far, ‘shock and awe’—china could be about to trigger a $1.4 trillion bitcoin and crypto price earthquake.

Regardless, researcher Kristofer Rolf Söderström from Lund University, Sweden explained in an email exchange why his team’s study to callout sham science was necessary.

“With this research, we wanted to address the issue by looking into how common this is, especially because Google Scholar is so easy to use and it is very widely used, even by ourselves, but actually it is not that well controlled,” Söderström wrote.

“Our motivation was that the depth of the issue could be mitigated by such an investigation, thus making an early contribution to highlight the growing concern of undeclared GPT-use in academic papers since this runs the risk of ill-will hacking of society’s evidence base. But really, just the possibility of this happening—even if it is quite uncommon—risks further undermining trust in science, and that this is the last thing society needs right now.”

AI Makes Science Easier and More Accessible To Fake

Söderström highlighted that there are two main risks from this type of scientific flimflammery.

First is the increasing risk that undeclared and mischievous use of genAI in scholarly research produces believable—but still false—academic publications that can be tricky to detect.

Second, the sheer quantity of papers that large language models can produce suggests that the scholarly record risks being overwhelmed with bogus studies.

“One of our findings was that many of these papers have spread to several repositories online, and have appeared in social media. This is a common and mostly automated process, but it makes retractions or corrections of research extremely difficult. Especially because Google Scholar will keep on finding and displaying them,” he wrote.

AI Is Not To Blame —They Blame a Broken System

However, Söderström and his colleagues point out that AI itself isn’t the core problem it’s merely a tool that academicians have found to try and survive within the flawed “publish or perish” culture at most research universities.

The publishing of phony science papers is further compounded given Google’s disproportionate control over scholarly papers, search engines and basic access to online information.

He said the team is doing a larger, deeper dive on this specific topic since their initial query was so limited, but it turned up some many issues and left so many questions unanswered.

“While it is not clear that all papers were actually produced by individuals – they might also be produced by so-called paper mills producing results from fake studies resembling scholarly publications – there might be several potential reasons. The pressure for researchers to continuously publish scholarly output, which can be conducted more frequently through the use of LLM misconduct, could be one of the reasons,” Söderström expressed in the email.

The report doesn’t offer any simple solutions, but it does suggest a multi-pronged approach that needs to include technical, regulatory and educational components to protect the truth.

Let’s just hope we don’t have to wait much longer for it to get its boots on.
