Excelas

Excelas offers an AI-powered exam marking platform called ExamGPT, designed specifically for schools administering GCSE Mathematics and Science assessments. The service automates the marking process for mock exams, providing rapid, detailed feedback and class analytics to teachers and students. It aims to improve efficiency and accuracy in exam grading, with the platform reporting high similarity to human markers and significant time and cost savings compared to traditional marking methods.

ExamGPT supports a wide range of qualifications from major UK exam boards, including AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC Eduqas, across subjects such as Mathematics, Combined Science, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Statistics, Astronomy, Geology, and Applied Science. The system allows teachers to upload scanned exam papers—created from any question paper PDF and mark scheme—directly into the platform, which then processes and marks them. The platform provides results and detailed reports within an hour of upload, offering both PDF and Excel formats for data reporting. It integrates directly with school Management Information Systems (MIS), and is designed to work with existing school printers and scanners to streamline administrative tasks.

Excelas emphasizes data security and compliance, utilizing Auth0 for identity and access management, with SOC2 and ISO 27001/27017/27018 compliance, and meeting Cyber Essentials standards. Single sign-on options are available for schools. The platform is available to schools in England and has been recognized with the "Assessment Tool of the Year 2026" award by the WorldWiDE EdTech Awards. It claims to handle a daily marking capacity exceeding 20,000 papers and offers a service level agreement guarantee for turnaround times.

The tool is positioned for use by school administrators and teachers seeking to automate and improve the exam marking process for GCSE-level science and mathematics subjects. Students also benefit from differentiated feedback that the platform generates. Excelas is not affiliated with any awarding bodies but supports qualifications from all major UK exam boards.
