Built for how courses actually run
Penciil centres on the assessment lifecycle — setup, submission, collaborative grading, and controlled results release — so teaching teams are not forced into generic tools that ignore question-level workflows.
About
Assessment and grading infrastructure for university courses
Penciil helps lecturers and grading teams run structured assessments — theory, code, MCQs, and uploaded projects — with workflows that scale from a single module to faculty-wide rollouts.
Our mission
University assessment should not depend on spreadsheets, scattered inboxes, and solo marking marathons. Penciil gives teaching teams a shared platform to collect submissions, grade by question, apply consistent feedback, and release results when the course is ready.
We work closely with lecturers and faculty coordinators to reflect real classroom constraints — mixed assessment types, administered exams, online assignments, and collaborative grading at scale.
Designed for university teams
Instructors, coordinators, TAs, and graders each have clear roles. Large cohorts are supported with response locking, assigned marking, and reusable feedback libraries.
Integrated where you already teach
Launch Penciil from Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard or any certified LTI 1.3 platform, and keep grading consistent across modules — without replacing your LMS.
