Frequently asked questions

Our feedback does not give you answers. We focus only on giving guidance and feedback on what you have already written. The feedback aims to give you enough guidance without giving you the full answer, for example:

Hey, you did a good job introducing X but you didn't really critically evaluate X as required in your marking criteria.

Now imagine this simple example but across your entire assignment and in more granular detail.

Absolutely. It is free to use and allows for many different use cases. However, keep in mind there is a limit on the number of words you can add in a single message.

With Mark This For Me, you can use up to 10,000 words for free when you register. We make it easy for you to focus on your assignments while we take care of the technical side.

We provide feedback on work you have already written, and we do not submit anything to your university.

Whether and how AI-assisted tools are treated depends on your institution and module rules. Always check your academic integrity policy and disclose your use if required.

Our feedback is designed to help you improve, but it is not a replacement for your own judgement, module guidance, or tutor advice.

Treat it as a support tool and always review suggestions critically before making changes.

We process your assignment criteria and answer paper using OpenAI's GPT models.

The models learn from processing millions of words, so they can build an understanding of what word goes where, which makes them good at predicting and spotting patterns in language. They learn aspects such as grammar, reasoning, and context.

This makes them useful for producing personalised feedback, as they take all the words from your assignment and criteria into account, process them, and generate new words relevant to your work.

We do not currently support file uploads.

Please copy and paste your assignment text and criteria directly into the relevant fields. If you need help preparing your content, contact support and we can help.

Most feedback requests complete within a few minutes. Large submissions, complex criteria, and peak traffic can increase processing time.

We currently use OpenAI models for feedback generation. The exact models may change over time as we improve quality, reliability, and safety.

The assignments and criteria you provide are processed through ChatGPT's API provided by OpenAI. Data sent through this API is not used to train their models. We securely store your data until you request deletion. You can learn more about data storage and management by looking at our terms of use and our privacy policy.

You can delete your data by logging in, going to your account page, and scrolling down to the Data and Security section. We can also help if it is easier for you to get in touch directly. We action deletion requests in line with our privacy policy.

No. We do not operate our own AI models. We use third-party providers, such as OpenAI, and data sent through their API for processing is not used to train their models.

If you are unable to retry, please contact support and share your account email plus relevant request details so we can investigate quickly.
