Online proctoring and identity management company ProctorU today launched ProctorU Auto, an automated online proctoring solution that uses artificial intelligence to flag suspicious test-taking behavior in real time.

Features of the product include:

• Machine learning allows ProctorU Auto to adapt to student behavior, improving its analysis with each exam;
• Facial recognition, eye movement tracking and auditory analysis identify suspicious behavior;
• Incident reports and session activity data are generated at the end of an exam;
• With real-time exam view, faculty can observe students taking exams as if they were in the classroom;
• Multi-factor authentication — ID and photo capture, facial recognition and keystroke analysis — verifies student identities;
• The platform is available on-demand with no scheduling required;
• Integration with Blackboard and Canvas via LTI; and
• Live support is available to students and faculty 24/7.

In addition, ProctorU Auto is available with two added service levels:

• ProctorU Auto with Professional Review, which "provides trained and certified professional proctors to review flagged behaviors from the testing session and confirm breaches of academic integrity," and
• ProctorU Auto with Live Launch and Professional Review, which "includes test-taker identification verified by a live proctor prior to the start of the testing session and then the same level of professional review for the recorded session," according to a company statement.
