I Built a Free Grading Rubric Generator (Because iRubric Charges $99+/Year)

Description and use

A free, browser‑based rubric generator that eliminates subscription fees and keeps data local.

Problem

Educators were forced to pay $99+ per year for iRubric to create and manage grading rubrics, with limited export options and reliance on cloud services.

Outcome

The free generator provides a complete rubric creation workflow that runs entirely in the browser, preserving privacy and eliminating subscription costs.

Workflow

• Open the Grading Rubric Generator in a browser
• Add custom criteria and rating levels
• Assign point values to each rating
• Enter student scores directly in the table
• Export the rubric as PDF via the print dialog or copy the self‑contained HTML
• Toggle watermark on or off as needed

Evidence

Build rubrics with custom criteria and rating levels; assign point values to each rating; add student scores directly in the table; export as PDF with one click; copy self‑contained HTML for embedding; toggle watermark on/off; no account, no signup, no payments; works offline; your data never leaves your browser.
