Coursework Assessor

Get your coursework marked before the IB marks it.

Send us your IA, Extended Essay or TOK work and get it assessed against every criterion, with the marks you would be looking at and exactly what to change. Choose instant AI feedback for a few pounds, or a written report from a practicing IB examiner.

AI route — minutes, £5 Examiner route — a real person, from £79 Feedback only. Nothing is rewritten for you.

Choose how you want it assessed

All three give you a mark per criterion and the reasoning behind it. The difference is who does the assessing, and how much of your work it covers.

The three side by side

If you only want to know whether you are on track, the AI route is enough. If this is the draft you are actually submitting, have a person read it.

Estimated marks are our professional judgement, not official IB marks.

How the examiner route works

Four steps, and the only one that takes you any time is the first.

Upload your work

Fill in the short form and attach your draft as a PDF or Word file. Tell us anything you want the examiner to look at closely.

Pay securely

You go straight to Stripe’s checkout. We start as soon as the payment is confirmed, and you get an order number by email.

An examiner reads it

We match your work to an examiner in that subject — never anyone from your own school — who marks it against the current criteria.

Your report arrives

A criterion-by-criterion report by email, with estimated marks and the specific edits that would lift each one.

Who actually reads your work

The examiner route is read by practicing IB examiners and moderators — the people who mark and moderate this coursework for the IB in the subject you are submitting. They know the current criteria, the published command terms, and the places marks are most often lost.

We never assign someone from your own school, which is why the form asks where you study. Your work is seen only by your assigned examiner and is deleted 90 days after your report is sent.

Your examiner gives feedback and estimated marks only. They will not edit, rewrite or add to your work, and the marks they estimate are their professional judgement, not official IB marks. That keeps you on the right side of your school’s academic integrity policy — the work you submit stays entirely your own.

Questions students ask first

Is this allowed by my school?
Getting feedback on a draft is a normal part of the IB process — your own teacher is allowed to comment on one draft. We only ever give you feedback: nobody edits, rewrites or adds to your work, so what you hand in is still entirely yours. Schools differ, so the booking form asks you to confirm that yours allows outside feedback on a draft and that you will follow its academic integrity policy. If you are unsure, ask your coordinator first.
Are these real IB marks?
No. Every mark you see here is an estimate — our professional judgement of where your work currently sits against the published criteria. Only the IB can award an official mark. The point of the estimate is to show you which criteria are costing you marks while you can still do something about it.
How is the AI route different?
The AI Assessor gives you AI-generated feedback in minutes, for £5. It is not read by a person and it is not an official IB mark. It is the quickest way to find out whether your Maths or Physics IA is roughly on track and which criteria need work. For the draft you are actually submitting, an examiner reading it properly is worth the difference.
What does the report actually look like?
One section per criterion. For each one: the mark band your work sits in, why it sits there in plain words, and the specific change that would move it up — quoting your own text, so you know exactly which paragraph is meant. Then a short summary of the two or three edits worth doing first.
How long does it take?
The AI route comes back in minutes. An examiner report is 7 working days from the moment your payment is confirmed, or within 72 hours if you add Express for £30. The booking form shows you the date before you pay.
Who sees my work?
Only the examiner assigned to it. It is never shared with your school, never published, never used as an example, and it is deleted 90 days after your report is sent. There is more detail in our privacy policy.
I am under 18. Can I still book?
Yes. The form asks for a parent or guardian email so we can copy them on your order and your report.
Can I send the same work twice?
On the AI route, as often as you like — each submission is £5. On the examiner route each review is one booking, so a second opinion on a redraft is a new booking. Plenty of students use the AI route to tidy up a draft first, then send the improved version to an examiner.
