FAQ

The questions we actually get

What does Edova replace?

Typically: the course platform, the video-call app, the grading spreadsheet, the report-card process, and the parent email thread. Courses, live classes, assignments, grades, report cards and parent access all live in one place, so nothing needs copying between tools.

How long does setup take?

A teacher on their own: minutes. A school: your portal — your own web address and logo — is ready the same day. The realistic timeline is however long it takes to invite your staff and enroll your classes (which you can do from a list).

Can I try it without involving my school?

Yes. Any teacher can set up their own space in minutes — pick a plan, sign up, and you’re teaching the same day. No credit card at signup, and no one at your school needs to approve it.

Does the AI decide my students’ grades?

No. It drafts a score and a short comment for each answer, based on the marking criteria you wrote. You read the draft, change whatever you disagree with, and nothing reaches a student until you publish it. Think of it as a head start on your marking — not a judge.

What does it mark the work against?

Your own criteria. When you set an assignment, you say what a good answer looks like and how many points each part is worth — the same information you’d give students anyway. The drafts follow your standards, not some generic idea of a good essay.

How is our school’s data kept separate?

Your school gets storage of its own — completely apart from every other school’s, with its own web address on top. Backups and exports happen for your school alone, and your data can be handed back to you on its own.

What can teaching assistants do?

Exactly what you allow. You decide per course — and even per assignment — whether an assistant can mark or see results. Every mark and change they make is logged, so you can always see who did what.

What do parents see?

Their own student, and nothing else: grades, scores and progress, always current. Parents can look but not touch — they can’t see other students or interfere with coursework.

What happens if we use up our monthly marking allowance?

Nothing stops. Students keep submitting and teachers keep grading — new work just waits for its drafted scores until the allowance renews or is topped up, and a teacher can re-run it with one click. Learning is never paused over a quota.

Can we get our data out?

Always. Grades export to spreadsheets, report cards download as PDFs, and every person can request a copy of their own data from their profile. If you leave, your data leaves with you.
