The problem
Online exams are only as credible as your ability to prove who took them.
Tab switching, shared answers, a friend sitting the test, a phone propped up off-camera. Without proctoring, certificates lose their value. With Invigilator, you can show exactly what happened in every session.
Features
Everything you need to run secure exams
Before, during and after every exam, one plugin covers it.
Full-screen browser lock
The exam runs in full screen. Leaving it either counts as a violation or submits the exam instantly, your choice. Tab, window and app switching are detected with on-screen warnings.
AI face & object detection
Flags no face, multiple people, a different person than the verified candidate, phones, books and laptops, looking away, and talking or background noise. It all runs in the candidate's browser.
Webcam & mic recording
Continuous recording uploaded in 10-second chunks, plus snapshots at a set interval and whenever something is flagged. Everything is stored on your own server.
Live monitoring
See every candidate with a live webcam image, time left, violations and risk level. Watch live video and audio, send warnings, or end an exam on the spot.
Detailed proctoring reports
Outcome, violations, flags, identity result and risk level for every session. Click any event in the timeline to play the recording from that moment. Filter and export to CSV.
Copy & paste protection
Right-click, copy, cut, paste, text selection, printing and inspection shortcuts are disabled and every attempt is logged. A second open tab of the same exam is detected too.
Auto-submit on violations
Set the limit that suits your exam. Default is 3 violations, after which the exam is submitted automatically and the reason is saved to the report.
Login session limits
Cap how many devices or browsers a user can be logged in on. Log older sessions out or block new logins until the user signs out elsewhere. Administrators are never limited.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does it change Exam Builder?
No. Invigilator hooks into the Exam Builder exam player and REST API without modifying it. Exam Builder also refuses to start a proctored exam on the server until the candidate has passed the checks, so rules can't be skipped by bypassing the browser.
Where does the AI run?
In the candidate's browser, using the open-source Human library for face detection, face matching and object detection. Video is never sent to a third party for analysis. The library and models (about 15 MB, cached after the first visit) load from the jsDelivr CDN, and you can host them yourself with the provided filters.
How much storage do recordings use?
About 130 MB per candidate per hour at the default 300 kbps. Lower the quality, turn recording off, or shorten the retention period if space is tight.
Live video doesn't connect for some candidates. Why?
Live video goes directly between browsers, and some school and office networks block direct connections. Add a TURN relay server under Proctoring Settings → Live video. Recording, snapshots and alerts work without it.
Can candidates use phones or tablets?
Phones and iPhones can't lock the exam in full screen. If candidates must use them, turn off "Lock the exam in full screen" in the settings.
What can't browser proctoring prevent?
It can't see a second device out of camera view, stop screenshots taken with operating-system tools, or fully disable browser developer tools (shortcuts are blocked and attempts are logged). AI object detection, recordings and live monitoring help cover these risks.
Some genuine candidates go to manual approval. Can I fix that?
The liveness check is strict with low-quality webcams. You can turn it off under Candidate authentication, or approve those candidates from the Live Proctoring screen.
What's the difference between Single Site and Lifetime?
Single Site is a license for one WordPress website at $19. Lifetime is a one-time payment of $99 for lifetime access with no renewals.
