Is EssayGrader free?
EssayGrader offers a free plan that lets you get started without a credit card. Paid plans unlock higher volumes, bulk grading, advanced rubrics, and Google Classroom integration.
Does EssayGrader detect AI-written content?
Yes. EssayGrader includes an AI Content Detector as part of its grading workflow, so teachers can detect and grade in one platform without switching tools.
Can I use EssayGrader and GPTZero together?
Yes, many teachers do. They use GPTZero to flag academic integrity concerns and EssayGrader for the actual grading workflow. That said, EssayGrader includes its own built-in AI Content Detector, so you may not need both.
Does GPTZero grade essays?
No. GPTZero detects whether student writing was generated by AI. It does not apply rubrics, assign scores, or generate feedback. For grading, you would need a separate tool like EssayGrader.
Is EssayGrader better than GPTZero for teachers?
Yes — if your goal is grading essays. EssayGrader is purpose-built for rubric-based scoring, structured written feedback, and classroom management. GPTZero focuses exclusively on AI content detection and does not provide grades or feedback.
EssayGrader is blocked on my school network. How do I enable it?
Ask your IT team to whitelist the following domains:

Does EssayGrader integrate with Schoology?
We are working on a Schoology integration and we should release that by September 2025.
