Sokros

Every capability, shown working.

Not a feature list — the actual screens and the logic behind them, from intake to released grade and everything that watches over it.

Queue hygiene

Instant Revert to Draft.

How it works: Centre-set eligibility rules run the moment work arrives: signature, correct unit and brief, word count within tolerance, referencing attempted where the level demands it, summative work in the summative area, AI and similarity within range. Ineligible work returns to the learner with recorded reasons — from under two minutes on instant plans to a daily sweep.

What changes: Learners stop waiting a full marking SLA to hear about a missing signature. Queues hold only markable work, so invoicing and workload forecasts finally match reality — and no marker is paid to count words.

Reason attached and returned to the learner — no marking cycle spent, the queue stays markable.

LMS live connections

The whole LMS procedure, completed for you.

How it works: Plugins to the popular LMS platforms pull submissions on your schedule — instant, daily or bi-weekly — understanding where each assessment lives: the unit, level and cohort year. After marking, Sokros completes the centre procedure on the LMS itself: attaches the document, selects the criteria grade buttons, writes the general feedback on the assessment page, sets the workflow state and saves or releases.

What changes: No third software layer to manage, no file organisation, no copy-paste. Run fully automated, or hold everything for batch approval on the Sokros Portal — one click releases on the LMS too.

Dispatch hub

Batch review and approval, in one sitting.

How it works: Every marked script lands in a queue by state — flagged, up for review, dispatch ready, approved, amends set. Each row shows its grading basis: gates passed, judged band, any flags. Tick the cohort, approve, release; grading configuration and settings changes are managed from the same desk.

What changes: A cohort that used to take a weekend of clicking is approved in minutes, with the evidence one click away on every row the whole time.

Integrity

Plagiarism and AI-misuse scanning, super-charged.

How it works: Similarity and AI-usage analysis tuned for CIPD, CMI and ACCA writing — including within-cohort comparison that catches learners paraphrasing each other, which no external-database checker sees. Flagged passages are quoted with the signal that raised them; reference credibility is classified source by source.

What changes: Deeper insight than a third-party plugin can offer, delivered as evidence-attached signals for your assessors — never an automatic penalty.

Sokros Copilot

Instant answers from the marking record.

How it works: Less a chatbot than retrieval over every stored decision. Ask about any learner, AC or trend and the answer comes from the deterministic marking record — the quote, the failed gate, the band reasoning — never generated fresh. Feed it emails from student-success channels, manually or automatically, and it drafts the reply from the saved reasoning; challenge the marking logic on an AC and it raises an amendment request — routed to centre admin, then applied as a numbered amendment.

What changes: Learner queries that took weeks — finding which self-employed marker graded it, chasing SharePoint folders and email threads — become same-day replies from admin or IQA. And when a moderation window or an Ofqual, Ofsted or awarding-body audit opens, the evidence pack is produced from the record, not reconstructed from memory.

What's driving referrals in Cohort 2026-A?

From the marking record: 34% of referrals trace to AC 3.2 — double the 2025 rate. The 2026 brief reworded task 2, and the learner-confusion flag is up on that question.

Our assessors agree one costed method should satisfy AC 2.4 — the brief only demands one. Can marking accept that?

The current AC 2.4 gate requires two methods (2026 brief · v3). I've raised an amendment request and attached your six assessor overrides as evidence.

How's the 5CO01 queue — are we safe on the 7-day SLA?

38 in cohort: 31 released, 4 dispatch-ready, 2 flagged for review, 1 reverted to draft. Oldest unreleased is 2 days in — comfortably inside SLA.

A. Jordan has emailed asking why AC 1.2 was referred. What happened, and draft a reply?

From the stored record: AC 1.2 requires two theories explained — extraction found one.

only Maslow's hierarchy is explained in task two…

Draft email — ready to sendGrounded in the record

To: A. Jordan — learner email on file

Subject: Your 5CO01 result — what AC 1.2 needs

Hi Aaliyah — here's exactly what happened, and what to do next.

AC 1.2 asks for two motivation theories. Your Maslow explanation is strong; a second theory isn't there yet.

For resubmission: add one more theory in your own words, applied to Meridian BioTech.

Insights

The analytics your cohort was already writing.

How it works: Every decision Sokros stores becomes queryable analytics: most-referred ACs, weakest units, RTD causes, tutor and outcome behaviours, difficulty shifts when a brief year changes, and the assessment questions that keep confusing learners.

What changes: Programme reviews argue from the record, not anecdote — and unclear brief wording is caught the term it appears, not at the end-of-year board.

Every evidence mode

Video, charts, images and tables — one pipeline.

How it works: Non-text evidence runs through the same extraction and classification as prose: a claim at 04:12 of a recorded presentation, a natively-parsed chart, a table read as typed fields. Modes come preconfigured per AC for supported qualifications, and output renders into each centre's own feedback marksheet.

What changes: No unit split between tools and humans because one AC is a presentation. Whatever the learner submits, the same gates and rubric decide.

Same gates, same rubric, same feedback sheet

What it means for each chair in the room.

Centre operations lead

Predictable queues, RTD rates you can invoice against, SLA breaches engineered out — and the dispatch hub to release a cohort before lunch.

Lead IQA

Sampling, review and approval modes at the points your policy names; moderation-style reports and the EQA pack retrieved, not reconstructed.

Assessors

The reading, checking and drafting done; your judgement spent on referrals, overrides and the occasional hard call — evidence already on the table.

Student-success team

Copilot answers “why this grade?” from the stored reasoning and drafts the reply — appeals become lookups instead of investigations.

Tutors

Insights shows which ACs and questions trip learners cohort-wide, so teaching effort lands where referrals actually come from.

Compliance & DPO

UK-based processing, no third-party LLM APIs in the marking path, no training on learner data, retention on instruction — in writing.
