Live proctoring is an assessment model where a trained human proctor supervises an exam session in real time. Unlike automated monitoring, live online proctoring allows institutions to observe assessments as they happen, communicate directly with test takers, and intervene immediately when necessary.
During a live proctoring exam, participants can receive support, resolve technical issues, and ask questions without leaving the assessment environment. Human intervention is available throughout the session, creating a secure and supportive testing experience for high-stakes assessments.
Whether you're delivering admission testing, professional certifications, licensing exams, or compliance assessments, live virtual proctoring combines exam integrity with real-time human oversight.
During a live proctoring exam, participants can chat with a proctor at any time — whether they have a technical issue or need clarification.
A human proctor monitors each session live and can intervene immediately when suspicious behavior is detected.

Our live proctoring platform works in any modern browser on desktop, tablet, or smartphone — no downloads for test takers are required.
From admissions tests and professional certifications to internal training, live exam proctoring adapts to your exam type, duration, and candidate volume.
Use OctoProctor as a plug-and-play solution or integrate it via API or SDK for a consistent live test proctoring experience across your learning ecosystem.
All proctoring sessions are recorded, encrypted, and stored securely in full compliance with GDPR and other data privacy standards. On-premise options are available for complete control.
Add a second camera view of the testing environment using a smartphone. Live proctors can monitor both the test taker and the surrounding workspace for greater assessment security.
Restrict unauthorized tabs, extensions, virtual machines, and remote-control tools without requiring separate lockdown browser installations or additional software.
Choose where assessment data is stored and processed. Support regional compliance requirements with flexible cloud hosting and on-premise deployment options.
Deliver and proctor SCORM-based assessments within a single environment, reducing complexity for both administrators and test takers.
Enable test takers to independently complete every stage of the assessment process, from identity verification through exam completion, without requiring live human supervision.
Verify the identity of a test taker and make sure the test taker is the same throughout the entire proctoring session.Verify a test taker's identity before the assessment begins and help ensure the same person remains present throughout the entire proctoring session.

Record webcam and screen activity during each session. This auto proctoring test record can be reviewed later in case of appeals, investigations, or quality assurance checks.
Protect exam content from copying and sharing. Detect and prevent attempts to capture, distribute, or reproduce assessment questions and answers.
Generate credibility scores and reports for every assessment session, helping administrators prioritize reviews and identify potential integrity concerns.
Connect a mobile phone's camera to monitor the testing environment from a second angle while helping prevent unauthorized device usage during the exam.
Monitor tab switching, unauthorized browser activity, and navigation attempts throughout the assessment. Automated online proctoring helps identify behaviors that may indicate access to prohibited resources during an exam
Capture screen activity throughout the assessment session to provide additional context during reviews. Combined with webcam and browser monitoring, screen recordings help create a complete audit trail for every auto-proctored test
Restrict unauthorized tabs, extensions, virtual machines, and remote-control tools directly within the assessment environment. Maintain exam security without requiring separate lockdown browser installations.
Store and process assessment data in regions that align with your compliance and institutional requirements. Choose from multiple cloud hosting locations or deploy OctoProctor on-premises for maximum control.
Our AI proctoring system continuously scans video, audio, and screen activity in real time to detect unusual behavior. AI proctoring with real-time behavior analysis helps organizations maintain secure testing environments without manual supervision.
OctoProctor helps safeguard academic integrity by identifying the use of unauthorized AI tools or language models during assessments. Automated AI monitoring helps organizations investigate potential violations and maintain fair testing conditions.

OctoProctor is browser-based AI exam proctoring software — no apps, extensions, or installation required. Test takers simply open an assessment link and begin.
Whether you're based in the EU, US, or elsewhere, our AI proctoring platform meets strict privacy and security requirements.
From small certification programs to nationwide assessments, our AI proctor exam software handles thousands of concurrent sessions with reliable cloud or on-premise infrastructure. Scalable AI exam proctoring software adapts easily to growing candidate volumes.
Use an additional mobile device to monitor the test taker's environment from a second angle. Ideal for high-security AI-proctored exams.
Protect exam sessions without separate lockdown software. Restrict unauthorized tabs, extensions, virtual machines, and remote-control tools directly within the proctoring workflow
Choose where assessment data is stored and processed. OctoProctor supports geo-specific cloud hosting with multiple regional deployment options, helping organizations meet data residency, compliance, and institutional requirements without compromising performance.
Deliver and proctor SCORM-based assessments in a single environment. OctoProctor's built-in SCORM player eliminates the need to switch between learning and assessment tools, creating a more seamless experience for both administrators and test takers.
AI should support assessment integrity, not replace human judgment. OctoProctor's AI monitoring highlights potential concerns and provides evidence for review, helping organizations make informed decisions without relying on opaque, fully automated outcomes.
Live online proctoring is ideal when exams require immediate intervention, candidate support, or enhanced security controls. Real-time monitoring during live proctoring exams allows institutions to address issues as they occur, rather than reviewing them after the assessment is complete.
Live test proctoring is commonly used for admissions exams, professional certifications, licensing programs, oral assessments, and other high-stakes evaluations where immediate human judgment is valuable.
Live proctoring offers the highest level of human oversight for assessments where security, fairness, and immediate support matter most. Tell us about your exam, and we'll help you choose the right proctoring approach.
During a live proctoring exam, a trained human proctor monitors the assessment in real time through webcam, screen sharing, and other approved monitoring methods. The proctor can communicate with test takers, provide support, and intervene when necessary to maintain exam integrity.
Live proctoring relies on human supervision throughout the assessment, while automated proctoring uses predefined rules and technology to monitor sessions for later review. Live proctoring offers immediate intervention, whereas automated proctoring provides greater scalability.
