How it works

Rubric first, then grading, then you.

Rubric creation

Starling guides you through building a foolproof rubric. It reads the assessment, asks what earns full credit and what earns partial on each question, and turns your answers into criteria and point values that leave nothing ambiguous. Already have a rubric? Upload it and grading starts there.

Grading

A state of the art AI pipeline grades strictly against that rubric, question by question, with multiple rounds of review on every submission. Each pass checks the score against the criterion it came from, so a mark is only kept once it has held up more than once.

Human in the loop

Starling's feedback and its justification sit next to each individual problem. Every score is editable, every question takes your own comment, and the change carries through the rest of the set. Nothing is published until you verify it.

Student work stays the student's.

Privacy and security are the conditions of the product, not a setting inside it.

A FERPA certified team

Everyone at Starling who can touch the system is FERPA certified, and the product is built to the standard we are held to. Access is logged, scoped to your institution, and reviewed.

Submissions are never stored

Papers are processed and discarded. Once grades come back, the work is gone from our servers — there is no archive of student writing to leak, subpoena, or sell.

Nothing trains a model

No submission, no rubric, no name, no grade is ever used to train AI. Your students' work is used to grade your students' work, and for nothing else.
