In their own words
SMOWL
SMOWL provides digital exam proctoring for educational institutions, certification bodies, and businesses, for online and in-person assessments. Computer Monitoring can record applications, browsing activity, connected devices, and use of generative AI tools during exams. Browser Lock can restrict actions such as opening tabs, leaving the test screen, or using unauthorized shortcuts. Identity checks compare a webcam image with an identity document, and periodic images can be taken during an exam. Environment monitoring can use a second camera, such as a phone or tablet, to show the test taker’s surroundings. Post-exam reports group detected incidents and provide visual evidence and descriptions for review. Integrations include Moodle, Canvas, Open LMS, Classe365, and Blackboard; D2L is also named as a certified LMS partner. A trial offers 25 licenses for 21 days through mySmowltech. Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android are supported, with Chrome or Firefox recommended. Pricing is available on request, and there is no free plan.
