Gradescope (stylized as gradescope) is an American ed-tech company that offers online and AI-assisted grading tools for higher education. Founded in 2014, the company is headquartered in Berkeley, California. The company's grading software offers tools for grading written exams, homework assignments, and auto-grading submitted code.[1] As of the 2020 school year Gradescope stated that over "25,000 educators" used their product.[2]
In 2018, Gradescope announced it was being purchased by Turnitin for an undisclosed sum.[3]
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and many students taking classes from home, Gradescope released a LockDown Browser that prevented a user's device from visiting other sites while taking an online exam.[4] The feature, though still in beta, was made available to academic institutions with an institutional site license on a request-only basis.[5]
