Which alternative fits your exam
Teacher tools rarely name a student exam, so their curriculum mark is usually neutral; the language, price and device marks in the table still apply to your classroom's country. Beyond fit, the real question is which matches how you already work: in the browser (Brisk), standalone (MagicSchool, Eduaide), or one job done well (Diffit, CoGrader).
Where MagicSchool AI genuinely wins
MagicSchool's breadth is the draw: 60+ tools in one place, a clean interface built by a former teacher, and both teacher- and student-facing modes. For a single home base that covers most prep and admin tasks, it's the most complete.
