Our Story
Assessment should serve learning,
not the other way around
Graddle was born from a simple frustration: university educators spend more time grading than teaching. We set out to change that without compromising the academic integrity that makes higher education meaningful.
Our Principles
Educator-in-the-loop
AI assists, humans decide. Every score and piece of feedback passes through the educator before reaching students.
Academic integrity first
We build detection tools, not generation tools. Graddle strengthens institutional trust in assessment outcomes.
Transparent by design
Every suggested score comes with an explanation mapped to your rubric. No black boxes.
Data sovereignty
Your data belongs to your institution. GDPR compliant, SOC 2 certified, with optional on-premise deployment.
