Hand Written AI test grading system

[johndozier1987]

Is there a way to use AI in an app. I am looking to make an app that allows me to use TESTS and scan them in....OCR them and have ChatGPT check the answers based on the training I give it. Then Print out the Revised Test with the Grades etc. Let me know if this is possible and Maybe if you can help me map a small road to make it happen?

These tests have HAND Written answers on some in paragraph form and this is why i need the OCR so ChatGPT can read them.

Thank you

Suggested Roadmap

Graphical Interface (UI):
Create a simple screen in EasyPyDesktop with an “Upload Scanned Test” button (using a standard file selection dialog to upload a .jpg or .pdf file).

AI Processing (Python code):
Instead of complicating things by extracting text first (traditional OCR), you can use the official OpenAI Python library. Send the image directly to the OpenAI API (GPT-4o Vision) with a prompt like:

"You are a teacher. Here is an image of a student's handwritten test. The correct answers are: [x, y, z]. Read what the student has written, compare it with the correct answers, grade it from 0 to 100, and explain the mistakes."

Database (Optional):
You can use an SQLite database to save the student's name, the date, and the final grade.

Generate the Revised Test (PDF):
Once ChatGPT returns the response with the grade and corrections, you can use the PDF Designer (or libraries like reportlab) to generate a PDF that says: "Test for [Student] - Grade: 85/100 - AI Teacher Comments: ..." along with a button to print it.

Note: The OpenAI API is a paid service, with pricing based on usage.

your saying use it outside the Program. I subscribe to GPT but I was hoping to how the program do it all. Is there a plug in for AI or planned for one like in the EasyPy Program. Thanks

You can implement this without any plugin using a simple approach:

Let the user upload a scanned test image (.jpg or .pdf) in your app
Convert the image to base64 and send it to the OpenAI API using Python
Include a prompt with the expected answers so the AI can compare and grade the test
Receive the response (grade + feedback) and display it in your UI
Save the results

The only thing to keep in mind is that if you use an API (like OpenAI), it’s a paid service based on usage.
