About IELTS Examiner
IELTS Examiner (ielts.sweetai.work) is an online IELTS Writing feedback service run by SweetAI. You submit a practice essay; we grade it against the four official IELTS criteria and show you, with evidence quoted from your own text, exactly where your band is being lost — before you pay for another test sitting.
What we do
Every report scores your essay on Task Response (Task Achievement in Task 1), Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range and Accuracy — the same four criteria an IELTS examiner uses. Alongside the four bands and the overall score, each report names the single criterion that is capping your result, quotes the exact sentences where marks are lost, provides a model rewrite of your weakest paragraph, and turns the finding into a 14-day repair plan of short, targeted drills.
The grading covers General Training Task 1 letters, Academic Task 1 charts, tables, processes and maps, and Task 2 essays for both modules. Around the grader we publish free study tools: a bank of original practice prompts, side-by-side sample answers at Bands 6.0 to 7.5, a Band 7 self-check checklist that runs entirely in your browser, and a converter that turns IELTS bands into Canadian CLB levels and estimated Express Entry CRS points.
Who it is for
Most of our users already write competent English and are stuck at Band 5.5, 6.0 or 6.5 — often for a year or more — because one weak criterion quietly caps the other three. Many are General Training candidates writing for Canadian immigration, where Writing 6.5 instead of 7.0 can cost dozens of CRS points and decide an application. Others are students who need a specific band for a university offer and cannot afford to keep re-sitting the test at $250–350 per attempt. If that sounds familiar, this service was built for you: a diagnosis first, then focused repair, then the retake.
How we grade — and how we prove it
Our scoring method is published in full on the method page: the criteria, the evidence standard behind every band we award, and the same-essay-same-report consistency guarantee. More importantly, we measure ourselves in public. On the accuracy page we publish the results of grading runs against essays with known reference scores — every essay, every score, including the ones where we were wrong — so you can see our measured error before you trust a single report.
We also stand behind the numbers with an accuracy challenge no competitor offers: if an official Enquiry on Results (EOR) re-mark of your real test differs from the overall band we gave the same writing by 1.0 band or more, send us your official Test Report Form and we refund that purchase in full.
What it costs
Your first full grading report is free. After that, a one-off Diagnosis costs $7, the Prep plan is $14 a month with eight gradings a month, and the Sprint is $19 for six gradings on the higher examiner tier in the final weeks before a test. Full details are on the pricing page. There are no per-essay surprises and no charge for a grading run that fails on our side — the credit is restored automatically.
Who runs it
IELTS Examiner is built and operated by SweetAI, an independent software studio. We are not affiliated with IELTS, the British Council, IDP or Cambridge Assessment English, and our scores are practice estimates, not official results. Questions about the service, your account or a report are answered by a human — write to us any time via the contact page.
