Grading is table stakes.Accumulation is the product.

A stateless tool marks the paper in front of it and forgets. Gradeio does four things, and only the first one is available anywhere else.

01

Mark to the SEC scheme, not by eye

Attempt marks, partial credit and the low/high partial credit bands are built in as scheme structure — not a prompt asking a model to guess how an Irish examiner would mark it.

02

Keep a profile that grows

Every graded paper is added to a permanent record: question, sub-part, topic, mark, date. Ten papers in, the profile knows things no single grading session could.

03

Surface what you couldn’t see yourself

Not “you’re weak at Complex Numbers”. Rather: you score full marks on part (a) every time and lose everything in the De Moivre sub-part — a 4-mark leak in every paper you’ve done.

04

Make the whole class visible

18 of 24 students have never attempted a Statistics question, and it has appeared in 8 of the last 10 papers. That’s a lesson plan decision, not a data analysis task.

The honest comparison

ChatGPT's real advantage is zero friction — no account, no setup, free today. So Gradeio has to clear that bar with outputs a single session physically cannot produce: a predicted grade and a Higher/Ordinary call built on your own history.
