FAQ

Common questions

How does the AI scoring work?

Student recordings are transcribed using Whisper AI, then scored against the official IELTS criteria by Claude AI. Each session receives four sub-scores (Fluency, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range, Pronunciation) and an overall band estimate.

What file formats are supported?

MP3, WAV, M4A, and OGG for audio. TXT for pre-written transcripts. DOCX and PDF for written responses. Maximum file size: 50MB per recording.

Is my student data private?

Audio files are deleted immediately after transcription. Transcripts and scores are stored securely. We never share or sell student data. Your data is processed across trusted AI providers (Anthropic, Whisper) under strict data processing agreements.

Can I use it with my existing curriculum?

Yes. GradeMaze works with any IELTS curriculum. Upload recordings from your existing classes — there's no setup required. The question bank helps you align practice with what you're teaching.

How accurate are the band scores?

Our AI scoring is calibrated against official IELTS marking criteria. While not a replacement for a certified examiner, teachers consistently report scores within ±0.5 bands of manual grading. Use as a reliable proxy for progress tracking and priority identification.

Can I cancel anytime?

Absolutely. No long-term contracts. Cancel from your dashboard settings — your data is yours to export or delete. We'll even help you migrate if you need it.
