AI marking built for CAPS & IEB — not another booking calendar
Most tutor software (TutorBird, Wise, EasyWeek and similar) handles scheduling, invoicing and client CRM well. None of them mark a learner's actual working or tell you why an answer is wrong. ExamAce's AI Teacher does exactly that — free, while it's in early access.
What's actually different
Generic tutor software
- Scheduling, invoicing, video calls
- You still mark every script yourself
- "Progress notes" you type in manually
- Not written for the SA curriculum
ExamAce for Tutors
- AI marks the work and scores it like a real matric marker would
- Tags the specific misconception behind a wrong answer — not just "incorrect"
- Tracks mastery per topic automatically, from real marked work
- Built for CAPS and IEB from the ground up
How it works for an independent tutor
Sign up on the Teacher Portal and add a "class" that's really just your client list — one learner or fifteen, across any grade or school.
Nothing is visible until they (or a parent) say yes — the same consent step used for school teachers.
Paste the question, memo and their answer — get a score, the specific misconception if it's wrong, and feedback you can hand straight to the learner or parent.
Your own progress view flags a learner once they're consistently under 50% on a topic — useful even for a roster of one.
Free while in early access
No booking calendar. No invoicing. Just AI marking and progress tracking, built for CAPS/IEB.
Open the Teacher Portal →How the pieces fit together
Your tutoring roster plugs into the same consent-based system schools use — you just never touch the school layer.
Your learner can see and revoke access from their own account at examace.co.za/my-data — nothing here is automatic.
Frequently asked questions
Is this different from tutor scheduling software like TutorBird or Wise?
Yes — those tools handle bookings, invoicing and calendars well, but they don't mark a learner's actual working or tell you why an answer is wrong. ExamAce's AI Teacher does the marking itself, tagged to CAPS/IEB, not the admin around it.
Do I need a school or institution to use this?
No. You can use the Teacher Portal as an independent tutor with your own client roster — the school-linking step is entirely optional and only relevant if you're on staff somewhere.
Does my student have to agree before I can see their marks?
Yes. You send a request from your roster; the learner (or parent, for younger learners) approves it themselves before you see anything. They can revoke access at any time from their own ExamAce account.
Is it free for tutors?
Yes — AI Teacher is in early access at no cost while ExamAce refines it with real tutors.
