What is Examino?

Examino is an AP history grader tool. Examino grades handwritten or typed papers in any subject against a teacher's rubric, returning editable feedback and scores that export to Word or PDF, plus class statistics and remediation exercises.

Examino is an AI grading tool built for teachers who need to work through stacks of papers without giving up control of the marks. A teacher uploads the assignment prompt, imports scans or captures pages with a phone camera through a QR code (no app install required), and the platform proposes a rubric with expected answers drawn from the prompt. The teacher adjusts that rubric or substitutes their own, then starts the grading run. Each paper returns a few seconds later with comments and a score, which the teacher reviews and edits before exporting to Word or PDF. The tool is deliberately subject agnostic. It evaluates essays and arguments, follows step by step calculations, interprets diagrams, graphs and geometric constructions, checks historical dates, and comments on writing quality. That range makes it a plausible fit for secondary school departments and for higher education courses in law, science, languages or humanities, where a single teacher may grade several different assignment types in one week. Handwriting recognition is the practical differentiator: many teachers still collect paper, and Examino is designed around that reality rather than around digital submissions only. Beyond individual papers, Examino keeps grading consistent across a set by applying the same rubric to every submission, and it surfaces class level statistics including average, median, standard deviation, grade distribution and mastery levels. It then generates remediation exercises aimed at the difficulties it detected, which moves it from a marking utility toward a feedback loop. Accounts can hold unlimited classes and subjects. On privacy, the company states that Examino is FERPA compliant, hosts student work in the EU under GDPR, redacts student names automatically, forbids its AI providers from training on student work by contract, and allows deletion of student work at any time. LMS integration exists through LTI 1.3 but is arranged at school or district level rather than self serve. Compared with pasting essays into a general chatbot, the appeal is the structured pipeline: rubric, paper capture, editable feedback, export, and class level analytics in one place.

How do you use Examino?

  1. 1Create your account

  2. 2Upload the assignment prompt
    Add the prompt or exam as a PDF and pick point based or skill based grading. Examino pre fills a rubric and expected answers for each question from that prompt.
  3. 3Add the student papers
    Import existing scans or capture pages with your phone camera through a QR code, with no app to install. Handwritten and typed copies are both accepted.
  4. 4Check the rubric before grading
    Review and edit the pre filled rubric and expected answers, or swap in your own rubric. This step largely determines how the scores come out, so it is worth the time.

  5. 5Review feedback and export
    Start grading and, a few seconds later, open each paper to read the comments, adjust any grade, then export results to Word or PDF.
  6. 6Read class statistics and assign remediation
    Use the class overview (average, median, grade distribution, mastery levels) to find weak spots, then generate remediation exercises targeted at the difficulties detected.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Accepts handwritten and typed papers, including diagrams, equations and geometric constructionsAI
  • Teacher reviews and edits every comment and grade before export, so the rubric stays under human controlAI
  • Class level statistics (average, median, standard deviation, grade distribution, mastery) come built inAI
  • Generates remediation exercises based on the difficulties detected in student papersAI
  • Documented privacy posture: FERPA compliance, EU hosting under GDPR, name redaction and no training on student workAI

Cons

  • Phone scanning through a QR code is the main capture route, so users without a working camera need existing scansAI
  • LMS connection via LTI 1.3 must be arranged at school or district level, with no self serve setupAI
  • The free tier stops at 10 papers a month, and the paid tiers are paper counts rather than unlimited useAI
  • The site publishes no accuracy benchmarks, so the quality of AI scores has to be checked against a teacher's own markingAI
  • Interface and product coverage are documented, but the AI grader is only as good as the rubric the teacher suppliesAI
