Common questions
Will WriterSpark write the essay for me?
No. WriterSpark coaches — it never writes the draft. The platform asks questions, scores against rubrics, and gives revision suggestions, but the writing stays the student's own.
What rubric do you use?
Default is a 4-point standards-aligned rubric across ideas, organization, voice, and conventions. AP/SAT modes switch to the College Board row scoring.
