Hi Product Hunt! I'm Denis, and I built RubricPal.
A lot of the people using my other tool turned out to be teachers, and they kept telling me the same thing: grading a stack of essays eats their evenings and weekends, and now every stack comes with a new question, "did a student write this, or ChatGPT?"
RubricPal does the first pass for them:
- Paste or upload an essay (Word, PDF, or a photo of a handwritten one), or a whole class at once
- Pick the grade level and your rubric (built-in ones, official AP and STAAR rubrics, or paste your own)
- In about 30 seconds you get a score per criterion with the reason, color-coded comments in the essay, a concrete next step for each paragraph and a note to the student you can edit
Every report also checks for AI writing, sentence by sentence. It was built to avoid false accusations: on real student essays in our tests, English learners included, it flagged none of them. It never changes the grade, and students only see it if the teacher shares it.
On AP essays, 80% of RubricPal's totals landed within 1 point of the official College Board scores on 70 published sample responses. The teacher always has the final say.
Your first essay is free, and if you invite a colleague you both get 2 more. I'd love your feedback, especially from teachers: what would make this part of your grading week?
