✦ Rough estimate

What this looks like for a 30-student class

Without Tori

At 15 min per essay

With Tori

~1 hr

2 min review per essay

Saved per assignment

~6.5 hrs

Per round of essays

Numbers based on internal teacher pilots. Mileage varies — short-form responses are faster; long capstone essays still take judgment time. The big lift is going from blank-page rubric application to reviewing a draft.

What Tori does for teachers

Rubric-based scoring

Tori reads your rubric line by line. Every criterion gets a score, every score gets a one-sentence justification grounded in a specific passage from the student's essay.

Teacher reviews every grade

Tori never grades anything to the student directly. You see the suggested grade, the rubric breakdown, and the passages Tori flagged — then you approve, edit, or override.

SpeedGrader queue

Every submission lands in one queue, sorted by priority. Tori's suggested grade is in the right rail. Approve and move — the next essay loads instantly.

Rubric generation

Tell Tori what the assignment is. She'll draft a rubric — criteria, point values, descriptors at each level. You edit it once and use it for every cohort.

Quiz question generation

Paste a chapter, get 20 questions ready to publish — multiple choice, short answer, essay, problem-solving. Difficulty distribution adjustable.

Parent email drafts

When a student needs a check-in, Tori drafts the parent email in your voice — warm but specific, referencing the exact assignment.

Frequently asked

How accurate is Tori's essay grading?
In our internal validation against teacher-assigned grades on AP English Language essays, Tori's suggested score landed within ±2 points of the teacher's on 87% of essays (on a 0-100 scale). The 13% that fell outside that band were almost all cases where the teacher applied a subjective penalty Tori had no way to know about (late submission, prior plagiarism, etc) — which is exactly why Tori suggests and the teacher decides.
Does the AI grade go straight to the student?
No. Tori never publishes a grade. The teacher sees Tori's suggestion + the rubric breakdown + the cited passages, then approves, edits, or overrides. The student only ever sees the grade the teacher actually approved.
What kinds of assignments can Tori grade?
Essays, short-answer responses, paragraph-form math justifications, lab reports, code with written explanations, reflective writing. For pure multiple-choice quizzes, SetFlow auto-grades without Tori. Tori is for the work that has a rubric.
How does this work with my existing rubric?
Paste it into the assignment, or paste a Word doc. Tori parses it into criteria + point values + descriptors. If you don't have a rubric, ask Tori to draft one — most teachers find the draft is 80% of the way there and they edit the rest in 5 minutes.
Is the AI biased against certain writing styles?
Every LLM has tendencies. We mitigate by (1) grounding every score in a specific passage from the student's essay, so the teacher can see what Tori is reacting to; (2) calibrating against a sample of pre-graded essays from your class before any production grading happens; (3) letting you override any score and reasoning. The goal is teacher-augmented, not teacher-replaced.
Is AI grading free for educators?
Yes. Every educator gets AI grading included in the free tier. Schools pay $5/student/year only when they want BYODB + SSO + analytics.
Does this work inside Canvas, Blackboard, or Moodle?
Yes — SetFlow is LTI 1.3 Advantage-certified. Embed SetFlow as a tool inside your existing LMS; students click through with single sign-on; the final approved grade flows back to your existing gradebook via AGS.
