4. AI-Generated Results and Teacher Responsibility

Acad AI's grading features use artificial intelligence to assist teachers in marking assessments. While our models are tested for accuracy, there is a remote possibility of errors or AI-generated hallucinations.

We follow responsible AI practices and clearly advise teachers to:

  • Review every AI-generated grade, score, and feedback
  • Make necessary edits before exporting results or finalizing grades

Final responsibility for the accuracy of results lies with the teacher or institution using the Service. Acad AI is not liable for any incorrect grading, wrongful failure, carry-over, or other academic outcomes resulting from unreviewed AI outputs.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Acad AI, its affiliates, and staff from claims or damages arising from your misuse of the Service, violation of these Terms, or reliance on unreviewed AI-generated results.

8. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Significant changes will be communicated via the Service or email. Continued use after updates means you accept the new Terms.
