Who are we?

Digital Red Pen was founded by two educators driven by a shared passion for learning and equity — a high school math department head and a research scientist in neuroscience. Together, they saw how grading inefficiencies and inconsistencies can burden teachers and hold students back. Combining deep classroom experience with data-driven research, they created Digital Red Pen: an AI-powered tool designed to bring fairness, speed, and accuracy to handwritten grading — empowering teachers and supporting every student’s potential.
