Pay how you mark.

No.

• Every plan can run fully manually, digital marking, shared review, and moderation, with no artificial intelligence involved at all. Departments that want the speed of shared collaboration without AI marking can toggle it off, or your head of department can lock it off for the whole team.
• Where AI assisted marking is used, a teacher confirms every mark before it counts, nothing is decided by AI alone.

In benchmarking on GCSE mock exams, DeepMark gave the same grade as experienced examiners. Not always the same mark, but the same grade, and well within Ofqual’s own requirements for marking consistency.

Mark the same essay twice and it lands within 0.94 marks of itself on a 40 mark essay. Further tests with qualified teachers and exam board markers are running now.

Currently supports Business Studies, English Literature, English Language, History, Citizenship, Psychology, Sociology, and Religious Studies, at GCSE and A level, with more subjects on the way.

‘Free AI tools’, chatbots like Copilot or ChatGPT, often pay for themselves with your data, in this case British children’s data. Consumer tiers of ChatGPT and Copilot can reuse what you type to train their models, unless you’re specifically on a paid business tier.

This is exactly the gap DfE’s own safety guidance tells schools to check and avoid before using an AI tool on student work.

DeepMark runs on enterprise agreements. Student data never trains a model. That’s part of the price.

DeepMark is not a chatbot, it’s a marking intelligence environment. Every sentence is analysed, every script annotated, every skill tracked, turning a one off grade into rich data that teachers and departments can leverage in the learning process for better control and, ultimately, improved student outcomes.

The DfE encourages schools to use artificial intelligence to reduce teacher workload. School policies vary. Some schools have no artificial intelligence policy yet. Many teachers use DeepMark as a personal professional tool.

Our recommendation, speak to your line manager or head of department before using it on real student work, if in doubt. We’ve written a briefing note and a Data Protection Impact Assessment you can download here and hand to your head of department or SLT.

Yes, always. Every mark on every script.

• DeepMark does the first pass
• You review, agree, or override, question by question
• Nothing is confirmed without your sign-off
• Your adjustments are logged throughout

DeepMark is a drafting tool. You are the examiner.

• Built on DfE guidance on artificial intelligence in education. Keeping Children Safe in Education followed throughout.
• Stored in the UK. Processed in the UK and EU under the UK adequacy decision.
• Never used to train artificial intelligence models. A contractual and technical constraint, not a promise.
• Encrypted in transit and at rest.
• No student identifiers at the grading stage.
• Delete on request. No lock in, ever.
• Full Data Protection Impact Assessment available for any school evaluating DeepMark.

To test it out, snap a few scripts on your phone. Takes 30 seconds. Good for seeing how it works.

For a real class set, scan to a single PDF on your school’s photocopier. Most reprographics departments will do a whole class in minutes if you ask.

For stapled booklets, ask reprographics to scan the whole set. Upload the PDF and you’re done.

The phone snap flow is for trialling. The PDF scan is how most teachers mark day to day.

• Upload your question paper, mark scheme, and student scripts as one batch
• DeepMark marks every question for every student
• You review, edit where needed, and confirm
• Export and you’re done

A class set that might take a week can fit into a single PPA.
