Biology research report

Invented rubric and draft, with illustrative estimated marks. This is a static example, not a teacher's grade or a live AI result.

Explain how the unusual result affects confidence in your conclusion.

Why analysis is estimated at 11 / 15

What was assessed

Use the growth measurements to test the hypothesis that more water increases seedling growth, and discuss unusual results and uncertainty.

Example rubric excerpt

10–12 / 15: compares results using numerical evidence and identifies unusual results, with limited analysis of uncertainty. 13–15 / 15: also explains how unusual results and uncertainty affect the conclusion.

Evidence from the invented draft

After seven days, seedlings receiving 20 mL of water per day grew a mean of 22 mm, compared with 14 mm at 60 mL per day. One seedling in the 60 mL group grew 26 mm. This does not affect the conclusion because most seedlings in that group grew less.Draft discussion, paragraph 2

Why this mark was estimated

The draft compares the means (22 mm and 14 mm) and identifies the 26 mm result, meeting the 10–12 band. An illustrative 11 / 15 sits within that band because the draft dismisses the unusual result without explaining variability or how it limits confidence. The higher band requires that explanation.

What to improve next

Explain how the 26 mm result challenges a simple conclusion that more water always reduces growth. Compare the spread of repeated measurements, then qualify the conclusion to match the evidence. If those measurements are missing, identify that limitation instead of inventing data.

Your own feedback depends on your confirmed rubric and saved work. Your teacher may mark differently.

Feedback before you submit

What is an AI grader for students?

An AI grader reviews a draft and estimates how it meets assessment criteria. For students, its useful job is to make gaps easier to inspect: which requirement needs evidence, which explanation is incomplete, and what to revise next.

RubricLock gives that review a dedicated workflow. You confirm the uploaded rubric, save your assignment draft, and read feedback organised by criterion. The estimate helps you review your work; your teacher decides the official grade.

Give the feedback a standard

A rubric grader or a “grade my assignment” prompt?

A general chatbot can review a draft against a rubric if you supply it and ask for evidence. A bare “grade my assignment” request leaves the marking standard unspecified. The difference here is the workflow, not a promise of greater accuracy.

The criteria
Rather than asking for a grade without a marking guide, upload your actual rubric and confirm that its criteria, levels, and maximum points were read correctly.
The evidence
RubricLock organises estimated scores, supporting passages, and next steps by criterion. In any AI review, check that the cited evidence is in your draft and relates to the requirement.
The next decision
Use the feedback to choose a revision you can justify. An AI estimate can miss context or misread work; ask your teacher about an ambiguous requirement.

How credits work

Credits are your service allowance. Each successful check costs one credit per two submitted words, rounded up, with a minimum of 100 credits. Rechecking a draft uses credits again. Successful rubric extractions beyond the included allowance cost 200 credits each. Failed or unvalidated checks are not charged. File, page, and monthly check limits also apply; a credit balance is not a guaranteed number of checks.

A few useful answers

Can I check my assignment against my own rubric?

Yes. Upload your teacher's rubric as a PDF, DOCX, TXT, Markdown, JPG, or PNG file, then review and confirm the extracted criteria before checking your draft. Use only material you have permission to send to an external service.

Is the estimated grade my official result?

No. RubricLock estimates a score from your confirmed rubric and saved work. Your teacher may mark differently. It cannot guarantee accuracy, a grade, or an improvement. Follow your course's rules about AI-assisted feedback.

What can I do with the free plan?

After email verification, the free plan includes rubric-based feedback, 2,500 credits and 2 successful rubric extractions each UTC month, and up to 3 active assignments. Default file and page limits are 10 MB per file and 10 pages per submission; credit, grading-request, and storage limits also apply. No card is required. Student Plus features require a verified paid entitlement.

What happens to my rubric and draft?

Your rubrics, saved work, and reports are stored with your account. Relevant content is sent to the configured AI provider when the workflow needs it. A share link lets anyone with that link see its included report fields until it expires or you revoke it. Provider copies and backups may follow separate retention rules. Read the Privacy page for storage, sharing, retention, and deletion details.
