How Does ExamSoft Examplify Detect Cheating? What You Should Know

ExamSoft Examplify is a widely used platform for secure exam administration, designed to maintain academic integrity by preventing cheating. This guide explores its capabilities, addressing whether Examplify can detect cheating, AI usage, screen or audio recording, and tab or location tracking. It also provides guidance on what to do if flagged for AI.

Can ExamSoft Examplify Detect Cheating?

ExamSoft Examplify is engineered to create a secure testing environment, primarily by preventing cheating through the following features:

• Device Lockdown : Examplify blocks access to other programs, files, and the internet during an exam, ensuring exam-takers cannot access unauthorized resources.

• Offline Testing : Exams are downloaded to the user's device beforehand, and no internet connection is required during the exam, reducing opportunities for cheating.

• Secure Delivery : The software ensures exams are taken in a controlled environment, minimizing external interference.

Can ExamSoft Examplify Detect AI?

Examplify alone does not have specific features to detect AI usage, such as tools like ChatGPT. However, its security measures make AI use challenging:

• Internet Block : By disabling internet access during the exam, Examplify prevents the use of online AI tools.

• Program Restrictions : It blocks other applications, limiting access to AI software that requires separate programs.

If ExamMonitor is enabled, it may indirectly detect AI-related behaviors by flagging actions like looking off-screen (e.g., at another device) or speaking (e.g., interacting with voice-activated AI). However, it does not analyze exam content for AI-generated text. Some institutions may use additional plagiarism detection tools, like Turnitin , to check for AI-generated content post-exam.

Does ExamSoft Record Your Screen or Audio?

Examplify Alone

Examplify does not record screen or audio. Its primary role is to secure the exam environment by locking down the device.

ExamMonitor

When enabled, ExamMonitor records:

• Video : Captures the exam-taker via webcam.

• Audio : Records sounds to detect speaking or background noise.

• Screen : Captures the exam interface to monitor activity.

ExamMonitor's recordings are analyzed by AI and, in some cases, human proctors to identify potential cheating. If ExamMonitor is not used, no recording occurs.

Does ExamSoft Track Your Tab or Location?

Tab Tracking

Examplify does not track browser tabs because it locks down the device , preventing access to browsers or other applications during the exam. This eliminates the need to monitor tabs, as users cannot open new ones. If an exam-taker attempts to access another program, Examplify may require a resume code, which could be flagged for review.

Location Tracking

ExamSoft collects IP addresses as part of its usage data, which can provide a general indication of location. However, since Examplify operates offline during the exam, real-time location tracking is not feasible . IP data is typically used for administrative purposes, such as verifying that exams are taken from authorized locations.

Final Thoughts

ExamSoft Examplify is a strong tool for preventing cheating. It locks down your device so you can't open other apps or websites during the exam. While it doesn't directly detect AI writing, it makes using AI in real time very hard.

If your school uses ExamMonitor, it can record your video, audio, and screen. The system may flag things like looking away from the screen or talking during the test. It also records your IP address to check your location, but it doesn't track tabs because the software blocks them.

If Turnitin flags your writing as AI-generated, stay calm. Review the report and talk to your teacher. To fix or avoid AI detection, try Tenorshare AI Bypass . It rewrites AI text to sound more natural and human.
