AI cheating detection

Built for the Age of AI Cheating

Cheating with AI rarely happens in front of the webcam. ProctorSafe catches the traces it leaves on the page, the screen and in the room.

Answers brought back from ChatGPT

The candidate asks an assistant in another tab, window or app and pastes the answer in. ProctorSafe tells that apart from ordinary copy-paste within the exam.

AI agents sitting the exam

Text that was never typed, keystrokes faster than any person, answers clicked without the mouse moving to them.

A helper on the other end

Screen sharing, remote desktop, virtual cameras and a second voice in the room — someone else following along in real time.

Continuously evolving

We detect how an answer reached the page, not which AI wrote it. New detections reach your exams automatically — and only count toward your scores once you turn them on.

Privacy & Compliance Built-In

Data minimization and local processing are core to our architecture — not optional add-ons.

Privacy PolicyGDPR-Compliant Proctoring →

Client-Side Processing

Integrity analysis runs locally in the browser. Video streams never leave the device. Only metadata and detection events are sent to your server.

GDPR-First Design

Built around data minimization, privacy by default, and transparent processing. Designed for European compliance requirements.

Encrypted Communication

All data transmitted between client and server is encrypted. Events are signed and verified to ensure integrity.

No Session Tracking

We don't use analytics or tracking tools for proctoring sessions. Your exam data stays yours. (Our public website uses privacy-friendly analytics for page views only.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about privacy, compliance, and integration.

Is ProctorSafe GDPR compliant?
ProctorSafe is designed around GDPR principles: data minimisation, privacy by default and purpose limitation. Video and audio are analysed locally in the candidate's browser, and video is not uploaded to our servers: only integrity events are sent. Compliance also depends on how your organisation runs its exams. As the controller, you choose the lawful basis, the retention period and which detections are enabled, and our published sub-processor list and documentation support your DPIA.
Is video uploaded?
No. Video and audio are analysed directly in the browser on the candidate's device, and candidate video is not uploaded to our servers. Only integrity signals, such as event types, timestamps and durations, are sent to your review dashboard. Your reviewers work from a timeline of those events rather than from footage, which keeps sensitive images of candidates and their homes off our servers.
Does it require a browser extension?
No. ProctorSafe runs as a browser-native SDK that you embed in your own assessment page with a script tag. Candidates do not install an app or a browser extension, and detection runs in the browser itself using WebAssembly. They only need to grant camera and microphone access, and screen sharing if your exam uses it, through the browser's standard permission prompts.
Can it detect AI-assisted cheating?
Yes. ProctorSafe looks at how each answer reached the page: pasted in from an AI assistant outside the exam, inserted without being typed, typed faster than any person can, or clicked by software rather than a hand. It also detects screen sharing, remote desktop tools, virtual cameras and tab switching — all without uploading candidate video. Because detection is based on behaviour rather than a list of AI products, new models leave the same traces as the old ones.
Where is data stored?
Session data is stored on Amazon Web Services in Paris, France (the eu-west-3 region). AI analysis runs on Mistral AI in France and receives only the event timeline, never video, audio or images. Your organisation sets how long session data is kept, up to a maximum of 90 days, after which it is deleted automatically. Our sub-processors page lists every third party involved.
Can it integrate with LMS platforms?
Yes. ProctorSafe is added to the exam page with a script tag and a few lines of JavaScript, so it works inside Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard and other platforms that let you add HTML or JavaScript to a page, without a plugin. An LTI 1.3 launch is on our roadmap but not available today. Our integration guide covers setup for each platform.
