AI product readSecure locked-down browser environment for taking PSI online proctored exams
Enables secure, monitored online exam delivery by restricting browser capabilities (tab creation, window creation, extension enabling), capturing desktop/webcam/microphone, and providing real-time proctor communication during test sessions
User installs the extension, then launches a PSI proctored exam session. The extension activates a secure check-in flow: (1) system hardware/software check, (2) identity verification with ID photo, (3) agreements acceptance, (4) camera/microphone permission, (5) start test. During the exam, the extension locks down the browser (no new tabs/windows/extensions), streams webcam/screen to proctor, provides live chat with proctor, and supports break requests. After exam completion, the extension auto-closes.

- Target users
- Test-takers using PSI's online proctored examination platform / Candidates for professional certification exams, licensure tests, and other remotely proctored assessments
- The background worker and UI JS files are heavily minified, limiting ability to trace exact authentication flow logic
- Cannot fully determine if the OAuth2 flow authenticates the test-taker directly or uses service-to-service tokens after the user authenticates on PSI's website
- The externally_connectable localhost:50161 pattern suggests integration with a local PSI application, but the local app's role is unclear
MonetizationNo paid features detected
No evidence of paid features, subscriptions, premium tiers, or in-app purchases within the extension. All keyword hits for 'checkout' refer to exam completion (e.g., 'This test is completed. PSI Chrome Extension will auto-close in {{countdown}}'), not e-commerce payments. All 'pro' matches are fragments of 'proctor' terminology. No billing, Stripe, payment platform, upgrade, or premium feature references found anywhere in the source. PSI's exam scheduling is a separate business service, not gated within this extension.

- Reason
- The extension requires users to have a scheduled exam through PSI's platform. It communicates with PSI's OAuth2 authentication endpoints (hydra.bridge.psiexams.com/oauth2/auth, /oauth2/token) and auth token services (mps.bridge.psiexams.com/api/auth/token). The check-in flow includes identity verification (ID confirmation, photo match, reservation match). The extension itself has no login UI; authentication occurs on PSI's exam platform, and the extension operates as a secured proctoring environment once the exam session is initiated.
Great experience.
good
I had tech issues, I was disconnected. I came back in and asked if it would affect my time. The proctor ignored the issue and started doing the check in again. I was stressed out. I wish there had at least been a note that it would not affect my score so I could relax. Also the exit button confused me at first because it makes it seem like you will exit the test. Also some of the standards are bit silly like I couldn't have my closet open even tho it was behind me and there's just clothes inside, not really sure in what way that would have affected my test.
The test was fine. But this needs to be improved, gave me anxiety and added unnecessary stress before the exam. This is a very uncomfortable proctoring tool IMO.
I had a great experience. The proctor was prompt and pleasant.
It was uncomfortable, i feel so uncomfortable
terrible. proctor was slow and made me remove things from my walls.. gave me anxiety before the test even started, do not recommend doing it this way. you have to have the most perfect environment, or they complain the entire time. Take it at a testing place not here to save yourself the added stress on top of the exam stress.
no problems at all.
very very very horrible
Horrible experience. Make sure your environment is BARREN, your device is charged, you've verified your camera and microphone work beforehand, and you can easily show your surroundings to the camera. No hats or head coverings (except religious ones) and you cannot speak, whisper, or cover your mouth/face during the test. Also make sure your computer does not go dark/shut off/close at ANY TIME or you will lose your connection with the proctor and have to sign in again. I also HIGHLY recommend signing in 30 minutes before your scheduled time to accommodate long wait times and tedious environment scans. Remember that if you are off screen for a single second, you get a warning. If you cover your mouth, you get a warning. If there is a SINGLE unpermitted object in your environment get ready to tear that room UP (especially on/under/around your workspace/desk). Overall 1/10 would not recommend and would not use again. Only advantage is the convenience of not having to leave your house.
