Comparison
ScreenComply vs proctoring and interview integrity tools
These products are not substitutes for each other; they sit at different architectural layers. Browser-based proctoring tools observe the assessment tab, the webcam, and the browser session, while ScreenComply observes the operating system underneath, where AI assistants, answer overlays, remote access sessions, and secondary displays actually run. The table below shows what each product is able to observe, so you can decide which layers your assessments need.

Which is right for you
Choose a browser proctoring tool aloneYour main concern is leaked exam content, identity checks, or live human oversight on lower-stakes assessments, and AI assistance is not a material part of your threat model.
Choose ScreenComply aloneYour main concern is desktop AI assistants, answer overlays, remote access, and take-home or asynchronous work, and you want an evidence timeline a reviewer can read without watching video.
Run bothHigh-stakes and credentialing assessments, where you want browser lockdown and human oversight at the browser layer plus device-level evidence underneath it.
