Kvasir works with the course and workflow you already have. Keep your own materials, assignments and grading criteria, and collect student work however you prefer, from files and scans to handwritten pages. We help with processing and grading, without asking you to change how you teach or build your own AI workflows.
The Kvasir grading plugin for ChatGPT helps you prepare grading instructions, assess pasted text or scans, and compare revisions in your ChatGPT conversation. No Kvasir account is needed; your host's usage limits apply. The Kvasir website is a separate workspace for saved materials, student submission versions, results, and group processing. It uses Google sign-in and Kvasir processing credits. Signing in does not transfer your conversation or files to Kvasir.
Kvasir can use readings, lecture notes, slides, scans, spoken explanations, problem sets, worked examples, formulas and assignment instructions. Choose the materials needed for each processing run.
Student work can be typed, scanned, photographed or handwritten. Each student can have several submission versions, so a revised answer does not replace the earlier one.
Create an exam, add materials and assignment forms, add the student list, then upload or enter the submissions. You can process one student immediately or test several submissions before running the full group.
Before a group run, exclude students whose work should not be processed. Run the remaining group with the same setup. The group view shows submission status, scores and the score distribution.
Click any student row to open that student's detailed result. The workspace switches to Individual mode with the same student selected. The Group view contains group runs only.
Individual mode shows the selected student, the active submission version, the original pages, recognized text, score, feedback and source-linked explanations where available.
The teacher can open earlier versions, compare stored runs, review processing usage and rerun the selected submission without leaving the exam.
Kvasir can run an optional AI-origin review alongside grading. The result is displayed separately from the academic score and never changes the grade automatically.
Open the review to see the passages and observations that triggered it.
Use the same workspace for open-ended writing, structured problems and mixed-format submissions.
| Area | Examples |
|---|---|
| Humanities and social sciences | Essays, source analysis, field reports, take-home exams |
| Mathematics and sciences | Handwritten solutions, derivations, calculations, explanations |
| Languages | Compositions, short answers, translations |
| Mixed-format courses | Typed text, scans, photographs, diagrams, multiple files |
The standard path is short: upload the material, test one or several submissions, run the group and review the results.
The Title tab keeps Settings and System settings. Settings reveals export and delete. System settings is for diagnostics. Show advisor stays in the header on every tab. OCR mode, models and run history stay on the Individual and Group tabs.
Claude Code export is a button on the Title tab. It is not part of the normal grading path.
No monthly quota and no charge for keeping an account. Credits are used only when OCR or AI processes student work.
A short typed answer costs less than a multi-page scan.
Typically cover about 200 to 500 student works. The exact number depends on length, quality and processing setup.
Clear scans use inexpensive Google OCR. Difficult handwriting can use Hybrid or AI OCR.
