GradeAssist is a specialized platform of tools designed to assist educators in grading essays with responsible and secure use of AI, whereas ChatGPT is a general purpose chatbot.
Although ChatGPT can provide general feedback on essays, it makes it hard to pinpoint specific areas for improvement. ChatGPT's performance is inconsistent and often requires tweaking prompts, leading to varied results. GradeAssist offers consistent outcomes instantly without any complicated setup and annotations so teachers can instantly see successes and issues, saving hours of time.
Unlike ChatGPT, which lacks built-in plagiarism and AI writing detection, GradeAssist includes these features to ensure academic integrity so teachers don’t have to pay for other expensive tools.
