Key features include
Primary Camera Recording
The exam-taker is recorded via webcam throughout the session, with AI actively monitoring live and post-exam for behaviours that may indicate misconduct.
Audio Monitoring
Microphone input is recorded and reviewed for suspicious activity using live and retrospective AI analysis.
Face Matching
A captured photograph is compared with a real-time camera image to verify that the same person is taking the exam. This comparison is non-biometric and not linked to ID documents, ensuring compliance with the EU AI Act.
Secondary Camera Input
Optionally allows organisations to request a second device view of the exam environment, with footage reviewed post-session for added security.
Screen Recording
The users screen is recorded throughout the exam to monitor activity and flag unauthorised behaviour.
