Better feedback. More time to teach.

Confer grades handwritten work with personalized feedback for every student and class insights to guide your next lesson.

Complete original problem 3 solution, including boxed b = 9.503, A = 58°, and C = 80° at upper right. The preceding step is b squared = 90.303. The SAS identification is missing. — Student work

Reasons through handwriting

A 0 or a 6? The step above gives b² = 90.303. Its square root confirms the reading: 9.503.

Recognizes correct work

“You correctly found b = 9.503, A = 58°, and C = 80°.”

Gives a clear next step

“State that the given information is SAS because the 42° angle lies between the two given sides.”

From graded work to your next lesson.

After grading an assignment, generate class insights from students’ feedback and scores to see what’s working and what to teach next.

Frequently asked questions

How do AI credits work?

The $50 semester bundle includes enough AI credits to grade 100 pages when used entirely for grading. Credits work across your courses for Confer AI, including grading and AI help. Other AI uses draw from the same balance. There is no course limit.

How will course grading budgets work?

Course credit reservations are planned. Instructors will set a course grading budget, with credits reserved from each enrolled student's account. Those credits will be set aside for that course's assignments. Students will be able to use their remaining balance for AI help and other features across courses.

What can I do with my connected AI?

Connect ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or another compatible assistant to work with your Confer courses and materials through conversation. Instructors can prepare courses and assignments, plan schedules, prepare invitations, and review grades and class insights. Students can get explanations, create flashcards, practice from released feedback, and plan study sessions. Shared changes and grade releases stay under your control.

Why use Confer AI if I already have an AI assistant?

Pro adds Confer AI for powerful, course-specific grading and analysis, with a dedicated workflow designed for accuracy and careful review. It grades handwritten submissions, prepares personalized feedback grounded in your rubric and teaching materials, and identifies learning gaps across a class. Its grading has been tested on college-level math. Your teaching team reviews grades and controls their release.

Which LMS integrations are supported?

Confer supports roster import and grade export for Brightspace and Lamakū. Contact us to discuss your LMS and institution’s needs.

Do students need Pro to see grades and feedback?

No. Students can view grades and feedback their instructor has released to them without buying Pro.

How are pages counted?

Pages are counted individually: a three-page PDF counts as three pages. Uploaded pages used to organize and grade submissions count toward grading usage.

What if I need more credits?
