Built to read the documents you already mark.
Word, Excel, PDF, even scanned pages. No retyping into quizzes first.
Four things it does. One thing it never does.
Apollo helps in four ways. It never makes the final decision.
AI-assisted assessment marking
Reads each learner’s work against your marking guide and drafts the ticks, crosses and feedback for you to check.
Apollo Unit Cross-Check
Reads your unit’s documents side by side and shows where they don’t match.
Assessment Integrity Check
Shows answers in the class that look unusually alike, for you to read.
Assessment Insights
Shows which tasks and questions keep tripping learners up.

How a batch moves through Apollo
Drop the batch in
Drop in everyone’s work as it came in: Word, Excel, PDF or scans. Apollo matches each file to its task, and asks you when it can’t tell.
Names come off first
Names and IDs are removed automatically. Check the preview, because it can miss some (like handwriting). Images wait for your OK before they’re sent.
Drafted against your standard
Each answer gets a draft tick or cross and feedback, based on your marking guide and sample answers.
Signed off, handed back, cleared
Your assessor checks the marks, changes anything, and signs. Learners get their marked work back. Apollo doesn’t keep learner work.
Apollo does the first three steps, the slow ones.
What a comment actually says.
Apollo reads the task, the marking guide and the sample answers, so each comment fits the actual question.
It quotes the work
Each comment points to what the learner wrote.
It names the requirement
It uses the guide’s own words. For example: “The guide asks for 100 to 150 words; about 60 have been written.”
It points to the standard
Where there’s a sample answer, the comment points to it, so the learner sees what’s needed.
It says what to change
Each comment ends with exactly what to add or fix.
It works question by question
Results are set out per question or section, against the requirements the marking guide states.
Generic is not full credit
A textbook answer that ignores the scenario doesn’t pass. A short answer that fits it isn’t marked down.
Calibrate a task.
Add the marking guide and blank template, then check Apollo found the right tasks. Marking unlocks once a task is set up.
Written assessment, as submitted.
Used so far on business, management and project management units. Doing something else? Ask us.
Not this: practical observations, role plays, workplace demonstrations, hands-on trade skills, creative or artistic work, or oral assessments. Apollo only reads written work.
Also in every batch.
Integrity, checked on your machine
Shows answers in the class that look unusually alike, for you to read. It doesn’t search the internet or past classes. An AI second look only happens if you ask, with names removed first.
Feedback in the assessor’s voice
Add a few of your past comments and Apollo writes like you.
It works out what kind of task it is
Apollo tells a scenario task from knowledge questions, and marks each one to suit.
A marking standard that accumulates
When you correct something, Apollo can remember it for next time. Handy at validation.
“I see the app as a tool to support the trainer’s professional judgement rather than replace it.”
Apollo doesn’t just help with marking. It shows each assessor what their assessments are showing.
Each batch shows patterns. Apollo keeps the patterns, not the learners’ work.
Where they struggle
Questions often answered wrong, and tasks that often come back NYS.
Where the instrument is the problem
Tasks that may be confusing or need fixing.
