Marking software for Singapore tuition centres

AI drafts the marks. Your tutors approve every one.

Students answer on the worksheet or hand in photos of their foolscap. Acadence proposes marks against your own marking scheme and shows where each mark came from. Your tutors check, change what's wrong, and release.

A 12 V supply drives a current of 0.40 A through a resistor. Calculate the resistance of the resistor. [2]

R = V / I

  = 12 / 0.40

  = 30 Ω

You're the tutor. Decide A1, then approve.

How a worksheet moves

  1. Set it

    Upload the worksheet PDF and your marking scheme. Acadence drafts the marking points for each question; edit them or publish as they are. No scheme yet? It drafts one from the questions for you to check.

  2. Students answer

    They write on the worksheet with an Apple Pencil, type, or work on foolscap and hand in photos or a PDF. Drafts save as they go.

  3. AI drafts the marks

    In the background, each marking point gets a proposed mark, the line of working it came from, and a reason. Unclear handwriting is flagged, not guessed.

  4. You approve and release

    Flagged scripts come to you first. Accept, change or reject each mark, add feedback, approve the script, then release the whole class's results together.

What each person gets

Tutors

  • Your worksheets, your scheme. Marks follow the marking points you publish, not a generic answer key.
  • Every mark shows its evidence. See the student's line of working next to the marking point it matched.
  • Hard scripts come first. Low-confidence reading and unclear writing are flagged for you.
  • Question analytics. Right, partly right and wrong counts for every part, with how many scripts they're based on.

Students

  • Write the way they already do. Pen, highlighter, eraser and text on the worksheet, and one finger scrolls while the Pencil writes.
  • Paper still counts. Photograph foolscap pages, reorder, rotate or remove them, then hand in.
  • Reminders on their phone. New worksheets, due dates and released results, from the Home Screen app.
  • Feedback they can use. Released marks come with the tutor's comments and the marking scheme.

Centre owners

  • Topic progress. Class mastery for each syllabus topic, starting with O-Level E Math.
  • Quick set-up. Paste a list of names to create student accounts; students join classes with a code.
  • Notices that get read. Post to a class, notify its students, and let linked parents read along.
  • Your own site. Your centre gets its own address and its own database, separate from every other centre.

What the AI does, and what it doesn't

It does

  • Read handwritten and typed working
  • Propose a mark for each marking point, with the line it came from
  • Say how sure it is, and flag what it can't read
  • Draft marking points from your scheme for you to edit

It doesn't

  • Release a mark without a tutor's approval
  • Fill in unreadable writing with the expected answer
  • Overwrite its proposal when a tutor changes it; both are kept
  • Stop you marking by hand. Switch it off and everything else still works

Founding centres wanted

We're working closely with a small number of Singapore tuition centres while Acadence grows. Founding centres get direct access to the people building it, and their tutors' feedback decides what comes next.

Questions centres ask

What is Acadence?

Acadence is a worksheet and marking platform for Singapore tuition centres. Tutors set worksheets from their own PDFs, students answer on a phone, tablet or on paper, AI drafts the marks against the centre's marking scheme, and a tutor approves every mark before students see it.

Does the AI give students their marks?

No. The AI only proposes marks. Nothing reaches a student until a tutor has checked and approved the script, and tutors can change any proposed mark.

Which subjects does Acadence cover?

Acadence is built first for secondary Mathematics and Science, including O-Level E Math, Physics and Combined Science. Topic progress starts with the O-Level E Math syllabus.

What do students need?

A web browser. Students can write on the worksheet with an Apple Pencil, type answers, or work on foolscap and upload photos or a PDF from their phone.

Can students still hand in work done on paper?

Yes. Students photograph their foolscap or worksheet, put the pages in order, and hand them in. Answers do not need to line up with the worksheet's pages.

How is each centre's data kept separate?

Each centre runs on its own site at its own address, with its own database. Centres cannot see each other's classes, students or work.

What happens if AI marking is switched off?

Tutors keep marking by hand in the same screens. Worksheets, hand-ins, approval and release all work without the AI.

How much does Acadence cost?

There are two plans, Starter and Pro. Pricing depends on the size of your centre. Message us on WhatsApp at +65 8159 3283 for a quote.
