Gradekeeper is used in 4000 schools across the United States and provides an interface for educators to enter grades, curve assignments, assign seating, and much more. Gradekeeper separates its user interface into several different viewing windows such as gradebook, attendance, seating chart, and reports. Aside from basic functionality like adding students and assignments, some configurable options include the school year, grading policy, late policy, weighting, and attendence deduction. Gradekeeper is also built to connect with students; it provides the abilit to attach email information to students and send complete summary reports for the entire class.

Overall, Gradekeeper seems to be in touch with most modern requirements of a digital gradebook but lacks certain configuration and a modern aesthetic.
