Not just an AI grading tool.
A system calibrated to your rubric.
Most AI grading tools grade like generic AI. EnlightenAI is the AI grading tool that learns from a specific teacher — your rubric, your corrections, your voice and your grading standards.
In a study with DREAM Charter Schools, EnlightenAI scored 0.77 QWK, higher than teacher-to-teacher consistency using the same scoring guide. Once trained on your grading, it is more consistent with you than a second expert teacher would be.
As you grade alongside EnlightenAI, it adapts to match:
Your grading scale and score thresholds
Your interpretation of each rubric criterion
Your feedback style for grammar, punctuation and level of detail
Aligned to major writing standards and exams

What calibrated AI writing grader output looks like
The difference between AI grading tools teachers trust and discard is whether they know your rubric. EnlightenAI is the AI essay grader that scores every submission against your criteria, not generic AI-generated content.
What a generic AI essay grader produces
“Your argument lacks clarity in places, and some paragraphs do not provide sufficient support. Consider revising your structure.”
Could apply to any essay by any student
Not scored against your rubric criteria
Same output regardless of your grading scale
What EnlightenAI produces
“Your thesis clearly states a position, but your evidence in paragraph 2 focuses on a different historical period (1850s instead of 1920s). Try integrating the primary source documents to strengthen your argument about economic change.”
Tied to a specific rubric criterion
Points to the exact paragraph and problem
Gives the student a clear revision path

Grading, once my most dreaded task, became faster and far more efficient. With EnlightenAI handling the bulk of the grading, I was free to focus on what mattered most: meaningful instruction with my students and time with my family.

I no longer need to spend hours searching for resources or scheduling meetings – I can focus on what matters most: my students’ success.

Julie Tarasi
Special Education Teacher Park Hill School District

Brian Tash
4th Grade Teacher Conejo Valley Unified
With EnlightenAI, I was able to grade assignments in about half the time, freeing up valuable time to focus on other teaching priorities.
Mary Adewusi
