Gradescope is a grading platform that lets instructors grade paper-based and digital assessments such as exams, homework, programming assignments and bubble sheets. Instructors scan student work or accept PDF and photo submissions, use flexible rubrics whose changes apply to work already graded, and receive per-question analytics. Code submissions can be graded with an autograder, regrade requests can be handled online and grades can be exported to a gradebook. It is delivered as a web service, and AI-assisted grading is offered with an institutional licence.
Gradescope is operated by Turnitin, LLC, a US company, so it falls under US jurisdiction, including the CLOUD Act. According to its privacy page, personal data is processed within Europe, Canada, Australia or the United States depending on the institution's preference, with handwritten-formula recognition requiring some processing in the US. Turnitin states that it acts as a processor for the institution and uses Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers outside the EEA; a formal agreement is available on request. European institutions can therefore choose regional processing, but should confirm the arrangement in writing.
