### How does automatic MCQ grading work with Papeez?

Create your MCQ in Papeez or import it from Word, Excel or PDF. Print the papers with unique barcodes per participant. After the exam, scan the sheets with any scanner or multifunction printer. Papeez automatically recognises the checked answers and calculates grades instantly.

### Which scanner is compatible with Papeez?

Any scanner or multifunction printer will do. Papeez accepts PDF and image files (JPG, PNG). You can also scan from a smartphone. No specific hardware is required.

### Do I need a special machine to grade bubble sheets?

No. You do not need to buy a scantron machine or a dedicated OMR reader. Papeez works with the scanner or multifunction printer you already have, or with a smartphone camera. Papeez's AI reads the marks, works out the grades and produces the statistics. No special hardware, no proprietary forms to buy.

### What is the difference between Papeez and AMC (Auto Multiple Choice)?

AMC is an open-source tool that requires LaTeX and a complex local installation. Papeez is a ready-to-use online solution, accessible from any browser, with no installation. Papeez also offers 4-level question shuffling, real-time collaboration, Word and Excel import, and responsive customer support.

### Is my data protected and hosted in Europe?

Papeez offers a 14-day free trial, no credit card required. Paid plans start at €4/month excl. tax (Mini, 50 grades/month), then €19/month (Pro, 300 grades/month) and €39/month (Max, 1,000 grades/month), billed yearly with 6 months free (€9, €39 and €79/month billed monthly). An Organization plan is available on request for unlimited volumes.

### Can I import my existing MCQs from Word?

Yes. Papeez lets you import questions from a Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), PDF or image file using AI-assisted import. You can also create questions directly in the online editor.

### Does Papeez work for cohorts of 500 students or more?

Yes. Papeez is used by universities such as CentraleSupélec, Paris-Saclay and the Académie de Créteil for cohorts of several hundred students. The unique barcode and question-shuffling system is designed for large volumes.

### How does Papeez prevent cheating?

Papeez generates a unique paper for each student by randomly shuffling the order of questions and answers at 4 levels (choices, questions, exercises, sections). Each paper is identified by a unique barcode, making copying from a neighbour ineffective.
