Live proctoring
Proctors watch each student's camera and screen in real time, take attendance in a waiting room, and step in when a student needs help.
Remote exams you can trust, judged by people
Examo locks down and records the exam on the student's computer, whatever tool the teacher built it in: a Moodle quiz, a Word, Excel or PDF file, or an external exam application. Every flag goes to a person, never to an algorithm.

What is Examo?
Examo is a remote exam proctoring solution built by LS2 Innovation for colleges and universities. It is a native Windows and macOS application that frames and records an exam, whatever tool the teacher used to build it: a Moodle quiz, a Word, Excel or PDF document, or an external exam application. Examo combines live proctoring, continuous recording and automated detection of risk events, locks out unauthorized websites, applications and AI tools, and hands every incident to a person for review. It uses no artificial intelligence, collects no biometric data and stores its data in Canada.
Proctoring
Three ways to proctor, combined as you need
Watch live, review later, or let Examo point you to the moments that matter. Most institutions use all three.
02
Recording for review
Camera, microphone, every connected screen, keyboard and mouse are recorded continuously for the whole exam, ready to review afterwards.
03
Automated detection
Examo flags unauthorized applications, websites and AI tools, loss of focus and window or screen changes, on a timestamped timeline.
Lockdown
Locks out what isn't allowed. Leaves in what is.
Each exam has its own rules. Examo enforces them on the student's computer and keeps a record of every attempt to break them.
- Websites, applications and AI tools blockedChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini and other AI sites, apps and extensions are blocked like any other unauthorized resource.
- Focus and screen changes detectedLeaving the exam window, switching windows or changing screens is detected and time-stamped.
- Permitted resources per examOpen-book exam, calculator, a reference document, even an AI tool: the teacher decides what stays available.
- Assistive technology stays onScreen readers, text-to-speech and writing aids authorized for a student are never blocked by the lockdown.
Incidents
Evidence for a person to judge, not a verdict
Examo documents what happened. A teacher decides what it means. No score, no automatic sanction.
- Timestamped event timelineEvery detection is placed on the exam timeline and linked to the matching moment in the recording.
- Alerts during the examProctors and teachers are notified when something is detected, while there is still time to act.
- Reports you can fileAn Excel report of events and alerts, with the corresponding video and audio recordings for validation.
