How it works

Three steps, clear boundaries

STEP 1

Upload

Drop your student PDF submissions into a batch and name each assessment. Nothing is sent or stored until you submit.

STEP 2

Suggested marking

Certifico reads each submission and returns a suggested outcome: Satisfactory, Re-assessment, or Not Satisfactory with a confidence note, or flags it Pending Review when the evidence is unclear. Marking that took an evening takes minutes.

STEP 3

Review & decide

Every suggestion is yours to accept, override, or query. The final judgement is yours as the qualified assessor, never the system's. Download a report for each result for your student records.

What's included

Built for how assessors actually work

Batch marking

Submit an entire cohort in one go. Multiple parts per student count as a single assessment credit.

Competency-based marking

Each submission is assessed on its evidence against VET competency standards, having regard to the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence not a generic rubric or guesswork.

Branded reports

Download a clean, printable PDF for each assessment to include in your student records.

Deleted within 24 hours

Submissions are deleted as soon as they're marked. Reports are yours for 24 hours, then permanently purged. Nothing lingers on our servers.

Pay as you go

Buy a credit pack that fits your term load. One credit, one assessment no subscriptions, no surprises.

Automatic refunds

If an assessment fails to process, the credit is returned to your balance immediately.

Privacy & advisory posture

Built to support your judgement, not replace it

Certifico assists your professional judgement. It is not a decision-maker. These commitments are built into how the system works, not just policy.

Never used to train AI

Student submissions aren't retained beyond marking

As the qualified assessor and RTO, you remain responsible for applying the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, for confirming each submission is the student's own work, for your record-keeping, and for your validation obligations.

Common questions

Questions, answered

The short version: Certifico suggests, you decide, and nothing about your students sticks around. Still unsure whether a unit suits automated marking?

Get in touch

No. Certifico produces a suggested outcome: Satisfactory, Re-assessment, or Not Satisfactory, or Pending Review where the evidence is unclear based on the evidence in each submission. The suggestion is advisory: under the 2025 Standards for RTOs, only a qualified assessor can make an assessment judgement, and every mark is yours to accept, override, or reject. The system cannot finalise anything.

Submissions are processed to generate results, then deleted. Reports are available to you for 24 hours, then automatically and permanently purged. We do not retain student names, file contents, or results beyond that window we keep only anonymous totals (how many assessments you marked) for billing. Your submissions are never used to train AI models.

Treat it as a well-prepared first pass, not a verdict. No tool can make your assessment compliant you remain responsible for applying the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, confirming the work is the student's own, and your record-keeping. Certifico saves you the time; the judgement stays yours.

You buy a credit pack (100, 500, or 2,000 credits). One credit marks one assessment, regardless of how many parts it has. Payment is a one-off Stripe transaction, no subscription, no stored card. Credits do not expire. If an assessment fails to process, the credit is automatically refunded to your balance.

Certifico works with PDF submissions of student evidence for VET units of competency. You upload each student's files and group them by student; the marking model assesses the evidence on its merits, there's no per-unit setup. If you're unsure whether your unit suits automated marking, contact us.
