Hey Product Hunt! I built GradeHQ because every finals week, my friends and I would stress out trying to figure out our exact standing in our classes. I got tired of digging through 10-page syllabi just to find the grading policy and manually typing weights into old online calculators. I wanted something modern and effortless, but also completely private. It started as a basic calculator, but I realized the biggest roadblock for students is the tedious setup time. That’s why I added the AI parsing feature so you can just drop in a syllabus PDF or Canvas screenshot and get a complete breakdown instantly. Originally, I required users to put in their own API keys to use the AI, but it completely ruined the seamless user experience. I ended up rewriting the backend to run through a free server-side proxy so it works right out of the box for everyone without sacrificing any privacy. It's completely free and open source, and I'd love to hear your thoughts!
