About SmartMark AI

SmartMark AI was created to give teachers their evenings back. It scans your pupils' exam papers, classwork, coursework and homework, marks them against your own mark scheme, and returns specific, personal feedback that quotes each pupil's actual work — while you stay in control of every mark.

Built by experienced teachers

SmartMark AI was designed by an experienced higher education teacher who spent years marking late into the night, and understands first-hand what useful feedback looks like — and how much time marking truly takes.

Crafted by a graphic & UX designer

Together with an experienced graphic and UX designer, every screen — from rapid-fire scanning to the review desk — was shaped to feel effortless on the go: big touch targets, clear colour-coded statuses, and a workflow that mirrors how teachers actually work.

Privacy-first by design

Pupil work is stored privately, encrypted in transit and at rest, and is never used to train AI models. Our practices align with GDPR and Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) — see our compliance page for details.

Built by teachers, for teachers

No subscriptions for individuals, no lock-in — just simple credit packs for the marking you need, and your first assignment free — whichever type you try first.
