Grade my essay: get AI feedback against your rubric

Submit your writing for feedback against marking criteria. Check comments linked to your work and decide what to revise next.

People type grade my essay into search when a draft is done and they want a mark before the real deadline. An AI essay grader helps only if it scores against a rubric — not if it invents a vibe score and rewrites your introduction for you.

See the live product shape — especially steps 2–3 (rubric + criterion marks) — then come back to the checklist.

What an AI essay grader should return

  • A criterion table (structure, ideas, evidence, language — or exam-specific rows)
  • Scores or levels you can compare draft-to-draft
  • Comments tied to sentences you actually wrote
  • Prioritised next steps (one or two rows to fix first)

Grammar checks alone are not essay grading. Fluency tools catch commas; markers reward task fulfilment, organisation, and genre control. RubricMark’s AI rubric generator and essay marking combines both layers: criterion marking plus manuscript notes — after you submit work you produced.

Three ways to set the rubric

  1. Rubi assessment (default). Leave auto on. Rubi infers a suitable rubric from the task plus your completed response.
  2. Upload or template. Bring your school’s PDF/photo criteria or start from a template when Rubi assessment is off.
  3. Generate with AI. Describe the task and marking scheme (5 credits). Review the table before you mark the essay.

That flexibility is what “custom rubric integration” means for a student account — you are not locked into a single school dashboard.

How to use “grade my essay” without offloading the hard work

  1. Write the full response closed-book (or from your notes only — no paste-to-rewrite chat).
  2. Submit to Get your Mark.
  3. Rewrite only the weakest criteria. Save the marked version in Past feedback so you can compare the next draft.
  4. When the task is exam-shaped, sit a related timed paper in Practice Hub so feedback becomes performance under clock.

If the AI wrote the essay, a high mark teaches nothing. Measure success by the next unassisted draft — not by how fast the grader finishes.

Exam modes beyond a generic essay

Pick the task type when you know it: NSW Selective writing, HAST written expression, NAPLAN writing, IELTS, PTE, IB essays, or university coursework. Auto detect works when you are unsure. Wrong genre is the most common failure mode of free “essay checker” tools.

Bottom line

An online essay grader is useful when it is a rubric marker. Use RubricMark to grade my essay attempts against clear criteria, verify every note against your manuscript, then revise — that is AI essay grading that supports learning rather than replacing it.
