Our process

Marking stages

Every submission goes through a structured process. Human teachers lead; AI supports quality control behind the scenes.

  1. 1

    Teacher marking

    A marker from MarkSmith reads your work against the official rubric. They leave detailed comments on your Google Doc, highlight strengths and weaknesses, and assign a grade based on IB criteria.

    All feedback and grades come from human markers.

  2. 2

    AI quality check

    After marking is complete, we run an AI-assisted review to cross-check the marker's assessment against the rubric and flag anything that may need a second look.

    AI suggests — it does not mark your work.

  3. 3

    Final delivery

    Your marker reviews any AI suggestions internally and decides what to use. You receive your grade and feedback by email, with detailed comments left directly on your Google Doc.

    Feedback in your inbox and on your document.

We use AI only to support our markers — never to replace them. Read our full policy on how AI fits into our workflow.
