Claire’s Reader helps you review and annotate student submissions efficiently by breaking the text into manageable sections called “Blocks.”

This feature allows you to highlight strengths, weaknesses, and neutral areas, add comments for context, and interact with AI-generated suggestions to improve your feedback quality.
