Graderbotai started as a side project in June 2024. Two high schoolers asked the same question, separately, around the same time: what would happen if the people building edtech were actually still in the classroom themselves.

LinkedIn →Now a freshman at UC Riverside studying Artificial Intelligence. Founded Graderbotai in June 2024 while at Irvington High School. Previously interned at CriticalRiver Inc. as an ML/AI intern, working on accounting products for DoorDash. Built the first Graderbotai prototype solo and now leads the technical rebuild.
LinkedIn →A product that respects the people using it. Teachers carrying too much. Students whose work deserves real feedback, not generic AI output. Schools that don't want to hand their data to whichever ed-tech vendor sponsored the conference.
We're going slow on purpose. Every teacher we add gets verified manually. Every school we work with goes through real conversations about safety, data, and what we will and won't do with student work.
If you're a teacher and you want to try it, the application is on the For Teachers page. We read every one.
