How the writing checker works

From pasted essay to band score in three steps.

1

Paste your IELTS essay

Drop in your Task 1 report/letter or your Task 2 essay. No template, no upload — just your own words in the box.

2

AI grades it on the Cambridge rubric

The AI scores all four IELTS Writing criteria independently and explains why you lost marks on each one — not a single opaque number.

3

Get your band, fixes, and a model phrase

See an estimated band, sentence-level corrections, and a higher-band phrase you can reuse. Run it again on a rewrite to watch your band move.

What the checker scores

The same four criteria a real IELTS examiner uses.

Most free "grammar checkers" only catch typos. An IELTS writing checker has to judge your argument, structure, vocabulary range, and accuracy together — which is exactly what these four bands measure.

Task Response

Did you answer the whole question, take a clear position, and support it? The checker flags where your essay drifts off-task or leaves part of the prompt unanswered.

Coherence & Cohesion

Paragraphing, logical flow, and linking. It tells you when ideas jump without connection or when you over-use the same connectors.

Lexical Resource

Range and precision of vocabulary, collocation, and natural word choice — with concrete upgrades for the words holding your band down.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Sentence variety and error density. It highlights the specific grammar mistakes that cap your band and shows the corrected version.

IELTS writing checker FAQ

Before you check your essay

Is the IELTS writing checker free?

Yes. You can paste an essay and get an instant band-score estimate with feedback at no cost and with no signup. If you want unlimited detailed grading, sentence-by-sentence rewrites, and saved progress, the optional AI Coach plan adds those — but the core check stays free.

How accurate is the AI band score?

The AI applies the official Cambridge four-criterion rubric, the same one human examiners use. In internal validation it agrees with human IELTS examiners within ±0.5 band about 85% of the time. Treat it as a fast, honest practice estimate — not an official IELTS result.

Does it work for both Task 1 and Task 2?

Yes. It grades Academic and General Training Task 1 (reports, charts, letters) and Task 2 essays, scoring each against the criteria and word-count expectations that apply to that task.

How is this different from Grammarly or a grammar checker?

A grammar checker fixes typos and surface errors. An IELTS writing checker has to judge whether you answered the task, structured your argument, and used a wide enough vocabulary range — the things that actually decide your band. This tool scores all four IELTS criteria, then gives the grammar fixes on top.

Do I need to sign up?

No. The free diagnostic runs without an account. Create a free account only when you want to save essays, track your predicted band week over week, and get an adaptive practice plan.
