Academic Integrity
Uphold academic integrity by blocking AI-assisted tools during assessments
Instructors have full control over which tools test-takers can access during an exam, including the ability to restrict AI chatbots, browser extensions, and virtual assistants. For added oversight, instructors have full transparency over the list of tools accessed by test-takers during assessments in the post-assessment report.
Flag AI Tools
Flag the use of in-browser AI tools during proctored exams
Detect the use of browser sidebars to deter test-takers from accessing generated answers and summaries from in-browser AI assistants, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, and more. Any detected use of browser sidebars will be flagged as a violation.
Browser Extensions
Complete control over browser extension usage
YuJa Verity allows you to disable browser extensions that embed LLMs, such as ChatGPT and Claude AI, to prevent test-takers from using AI to cheat on assessments. You can also permit specific browser extensions depending on your institutional guidelines and assessment needs.
Side Panel Activities
Full transparency of side panel activities
Enable Monitor Side Panel Activities during proctoring setup to keep track of any attempts by the test-taker to access AI tools, such as chatbots and virtual assistants, in their browser side panel. Any violations will be flagged in the post-assessment report for further review.
Monitor Browser Extensions
Keep track of installed browser extensions on test-taker devices
Have clear insight into browser extensions that are installed on a test-taker’s device in the post-assessment report. This helps you maintain transparency and honesty during a proctored assessment without needing to manually permit browser extensions that your institution allows test-takers to use for every assessment.
Block Smartphone Use
Restrict the use of smartphones during YuJa Verity assessments
With the Restrict Mobile Device setting enabled, students must connect via the YuJa Verity Mobile Lockdown App to restrict them from using smartphones throughout the duration of the assessment. If the test-taker’s mobile device is disconnected at any point, it will be flagged.
Browser Compatibility
Works with the browsers you already use
YuJa Verity supports leading browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Brave, and Opera. No matter which browser your test-takers prefer, YuJa Verity delivers consistent AI and sidebar detection to keep every assessment secure.
