Rubrics aligned to Australian exams
The Better Writing Loop
One loop. Better writing every time.
Submit any essay. The AI evaluates it against the real rubric for your exam — NAPLAN, Selective, HSC, VCE, or general curriculum. Every criterion scored out of 10.
Get specific, sentence-level feedback on exactly what's weak and why. Not generic tips — a detailed breakdown of every criterion with strengths, weaknesses, and concrete next steps.
One click generates a lesson targeting your weakest criterion — using your own essay sentences as exercises. Not generic theory. Your actual writing, turned into a learning activity.
Complete the lesson exercises and targeted practice tasks. Build the specific skill that's holding your score back before touching the essay again.
Revise the essay with your new skill, re-submit, and see the score change. Track improvement across every attempt. Repeat the loop until it sticks.
Our philosophy
Here's what we believe
Every student deserves timely, structured feedback. Every teacher deserves tools that turn marking into teaching, not just assessment.
What this is
- Rubric-based feedback for students and teachers
- Sentence-level guidance to improve drafts
- Progress tracking over time
What this is not
- A shortcut to write for students
- A replacement for teacher judgement
- A high-stakes exam grading system
We prefer precise claims over hype. See exactly how rubric scoring and scaling are explained in How Scoring Works.

Academic integrity first
Students submit their own drafts. Kids Writing gives rubric-based guidance, highlights strengths and gaps, and suggests what to revise next, not finished answers to copy.
