What it is
ProctorDIY is remote exam-proctoring software that lets instructors monitor their own students with AI assistance. Instructors or teaching assistants can supervise up to 25 students remotely. Identity checks compare face, ID and knuckle scans with a stored biometric profile. During an exam, the application checks for blacklisted apps and devices, captures screenshots and webcam data, and flags possible policy violations. Processed sessions and time-stamped, pre-flagged violations appear in the instructor dashboard within 48 hours. The product integrates with LTI-compatible learning systems, including Canvas, Blackboard, D2L, Sakai and Moodle. Students launch an application the maker says downloads in under a minute and does not need administrative rights. Listed system requirements include macOS Sierra 10.12 or later and Windows 7 or later; Chromebook support depends on the LMS and product level. The application may access connected devices, the screen, webcam, system and process logs, and keystrokes during an exam. Student data is typically deleted 90 days after the final course submission date. The maker lists HIPAA, FERPA, GDPR and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance. Pricing is on request.
