UniRubric is a higher-education assessment platform that drafts rubric-based grades and attaches quoted evidence for lecturer review. Lecturers can upload rubrics in DOCX, PDF, or plain text, then add student submissions one at a time or as a class. Every grade remains a draft until a lecturer reviews, edits, and approves it. The institutional product connects to Canvas, Moodle, and Blackboard through LTI 1.3; Brightspace is also listed for institutional plans. A faculty lead dashboard tracks rubric calibration across markers and can prepare a meeting agenda and schedule a calibration meeting. Data, submissions, rubrics, and grading runs are pinned to Sydney under standard conditions. The maker says customer work is not used to train or fine-tune models, and describes encryption in transit and at rest. Deleted assignments are removed from production within 24 hours and backups within 35 days, while grading-run audit logs are kept for seven years. UniRubric has web and API access, a free lifetime lecturer plan with one marking job, and paid plans from $15/mo.
Who it is for
UniRubric suits lecturers who want draft rubric-based grading with human approval, and institutions using supported LMS platforms. Faculty leads may also find its marker calibration dashboard relevant.
