Capability Summary	Provides a grading entry inside the smart forms exam workflow, where you can open grading settings, review the setup, and export score sheets after the exam.	Microsoft Forms supports grading quiz results per person or per question, adding feedback, posting scores, and exporting results to Excel.	Google Forms supports quiz creation, answer keys, point values, grading by person or by question, and score release controls.	Notion Forms focuses on form collection, database connection, and conditional logic. Its official form documentation does not describe a native exam auto-grading workflow.	Adobe Acrobat focuses more on PDF assignment review, form collection, and online grading workflows than on native online quiz grading.
