Analyze Open-Ended Responses with AI
Review open-ended responses against organization-defined learning objectives and rubrics, rather than relying only on keywords.
AI-assisted open-ended response assessment can support the review of text, audio, video, visual/drawing or handwriting responses against rubrics and learning outcomes supplied by the organization. Qulak AI provides analysis suggestions, while expert review remains part of the process for final scores and consequential decisions.

RUBRICS AND FEEDBACK
Analyze responses against rubrics and learning objectives
Learning experts should be able to review how an AI suggestion relates to a response and a defined criterion.
Predefined criteria
Set learning outcomes, rubric dimensions and expected performance before assessment.
Evidence and rationale
Review suggested analysis alongside relevant response content and rubric criteria.
Expert review
An authorized evaluator decides whether to edit, accept or reject an AI suggestion.
END-TO-END WORKFLOW
Open-ended response assessment workflow
Reviewable steps from rubric definition to the final assessment:
Outcome and rubric
Define the learning objective and scoring criteria.
Collect the response
Capture text, audio, video or visual responses in the organization’s assessment flow.
Review AI analysis
Check the suggested content evidence and draft feedback against the rubric.
Make the final decision
An expert evaluator approves, edits or changes the proposed score.
HUMAN REVIEW AND ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL
Preserve human evaluation and fair assessment
AI analysis is not presented as emotion, personality, facial-expression or identity inference. Keep assessment focused on response content, rubrics and learning objectives; an authorized evaluator should make the final decision.
• Define rubrics and objectives before the assessment.
• Do not score personal traits unrelated to response content.
• Preserve expert approval, appeal and correction options.
