Penmark is a grading app for teachers and professors who'd rather mark up papers with an Apple Pencil than fight a clunky web tool. Import a stack of student PDFs, annotate each one by hand, attach a rubric that adds up the score for you, and export the graded papers — everything on your iPad, nothing in the cloud. GRADE THE WAY YOU ALREADY DO • Import a whole class set of PDFs at once. • Mark them up with Apple Pencil — ink, highlight, and notes, just like paper. • Flip through pages; your marks are saved automatically. RUBRICS THAT TALLY THEMSELVES • Build a reusable rubric once and attach it to an assignment. • Tap to award points per criterion; Penmark sums the score and letter grade. • A lightweight gradebook shows every student and the class average. REUSABLE COMMENTS • Keep a bank of the feedback you write again and again, and copy any note with a tap. RETURN WORK ANYWHERE — NO LOCK-IN • Export a flattened graded PDF to send back or upload to any LMS. • Export grades as a CSV for your gradebook. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no cloud, no tracking. Student work never leaves your device. Nothing collected, ever. ONE-TIME UNLOCK, NEVER A SUBSCRIPTION Grade one course free.
