Markus Student App Interface

Built for educators, designed for learning

We're educators building what classrooms actually need. Markus cuts marking time and enhances teaching and learning, whilst lifting the burden of assessment. Our AI is ethical by design—rule-based, consistent, and grounded in real expertise. No shortcuts. Just tools that work.
