Meet SMOWL, the effortless way to secure digital exams and ensure fairness. Combining AI with on-demand human oversight, SMOWL works for single quizzes or campus-wide monitoring. Easy to integrate with any LMS, it scales as your needs grow. Advanced algorithms analyze sessions and generate clear reports, with specialized proctors stepping in when deeper review is needed. Students stay focused, instructors gain peace of mind, and admins get intuitive, customizable insights. Reinforce integrity, build credibility, and empower success with SMOWL - simple, reliable exam proctoring in minutes.
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to run an online exam with complete confidence, knowing that every test is secure, transparent and fair, without adding extra headaches for students or staff? SMOWL makes that possible by combining powerful cloud-based proctoring software with the option of human review by specialized personnel when you need it most.
From the moment a candidate clicks start, SMOWL works quietly in the background. Its intelligent algorithms track every session, analyze the data and sort events into clear, easy-to-understand categories. Instead of interrupting the student, your instructors get straightforward, objective reports that highlight any irregularities. This way you can detect attempts at fraud or unauthorized behavior without putting test takers on edge.
Integration is seamless. If you use Moodle, SMOWL offers the only certified proctoring add-on; if you use Blackboard, Canvas, D2L, Open LMS or another platform, SMOWL plugs right in. There is no complex setup or lengthy rollout: you can be up and running in minutes. As your number of candidates grows or your bandwidth fluctuates, SMOWL scales elastically to match demand.
Shifting much of your proctoring work online reduces the need for on-site supervisors, cutting travel expenses and staffing overhead. At the same time, you build trust with students, parents and accreditation bodies because SMOWL's process is rigorous yet respectful. Everyone sees that you care about integrity and giving learners an uninterrupted space to do their best.
Privacy matters just as much as security. SMOWL provides full compliance with GDPR in Europe, FERPA in the US, CCPA/CPRA in California and ISO 27001 standards globally. Every bit of data, including images, logs and reports, is stored and handled under strict protocols.
Implementation comes with more than just software. We offer personalized demonstrations to show how SMOWL fits your workflows. Your team can attend free training sessions to make adoption smooth from day one. If a question or technical issue arises, our multilingual support staff is available around the clock.
With SMOWL, you are not just monitoring exams; you are reinforcing academic integrity, protecting student privacy and delivering an experience that students and faculty will appreciate. Imagine fewer worries about cheating, tighter control over assessments and a reputation for fairness that speaks volumes. That is the confidence SMOWL brings.

You buy this exam proctoring software through a one-year contract. Each license covers one exam session, sold in blocks of 5,000 licenses. Three service levels set the price per license. SMOWL Class 5000 is the base automated monitoring option. SMOWL+ 5000 adds a higher level of supervision. SMOWL Pro 5000 sits at the top service level. All three use the same license-per-exam unit and the same 5,000-unit quantity, so you choose based on the depth of monitoring you need, not on volume.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one license in a 5,000-unit block?
One license covers a single exam session for one user. Each supervised exam or exam session draws down one license. If a user takes several exams, each one uses a separate license. You buy licenses in blocks of 5,000 under a one-year contract.
What is the practical difference between the three service levels beyond price?
All three use the same per-exam license and 5,000-unit block. The levels differ in monitoring depth. SMOWL Class 5000 uses automated digital supervision. SMOWL+ 5000 adds a higher supervision level. SMOWL Pro 5000 sits at the top level. You pick based on how closely each exam must be watched.
What happens if I use up all 5,000 licenses before the year ends?
The block covers up to 5,000 exam sessions during the one-year term. Once you reach that count, you need more licenses to keep proctoring exams. Licenses are sold per exam session, so usage draws down as each supervised exam runs. Contact the vendor for details on adding capacity.
