Engrade is a web-based tool that targets teachers, students, parents, and school administrators. While the tool is cohesive, it applies a "cookie-cutter" view to how classes should be graded with relatively little room for customization. The tool also appears to be targeting K-12 audiences rather than collegiate audiences.

Overall, offers an extensive level of large-scale organization potential but in effect is more effective as a proof-of-concept.
