How it Works
Learn how to get the most accurate results for your student assessments.
The Flow
Add your **Question Paper** along with the **Answer Key**. This provides the AI with the reference material needed for evaluation.
You can use **PDF files, digital images**, or even **take photos directly** from your camera. Both **written (handwritten) and typed answers** are fully supported.
Add individual **Student Answer Sheets**. You can upload multiple sheets for each student.
For the best evaluation accuracy, ensure images are clear, properly oriented, and have high readability. Good lighting is essential for handwritten submissions.
Question Paper & Answer Key
Supports **any language**. Our AI can process and evaluate assessments in global and local languages with high precision.
You can upload your files in two ways:
- **Single Sheet**: Questions and answers on the same page.
- **Separate Sheets**: Question paper and Answer Keys as individual files.
Grading & Rules
Clearly mention the **score or weightage** for each answer. You can also specify **evaluation rules** (e.g., "be strict with grammar" or "only check for keywords").
📝 Descriptive Answers
For subjective questions like **essays or long-form answers**, mention the specific **points or criteria** the student should cover. The AI will use these points as a benchmark during evaluation.
Student Answer Sheets
For each student, ensure you upload **all their answer sheet pages** together. Evaluation is performed on a **per-student basis**, so having all their files in one submission is essential.
📸 Image Quality
Use **high-quality images** with proper **lighting and readability**. Poor lighting or blurry text can significantly affect the accuracy of the AI's grading.
📄 Page Order & Layout
- ✓ While keeping pages in order is recommended, the AI can handle **out-of-order answers**.
- ✓ It is **not a problem** if an answer starts on one page and continues on another. The AI considers all uploaded sheets for the student as a single continuous work.
Beyond Exams
Fastgrade is not limited to just exam papers. You can use it to evaluate a wide range of academic work:
💡 Pro Tip: Clear Instructions
The key to perfect AI evaluation is **clarity**. In your question sheets or answer keys, always clearly specify the **instructions to evaluate** and the **marking scheme**. The more detailed your instructions, the better the result.
