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.
That was a horrible experience, the nit picking about stuff that wasn't in my reach was very unnecessary, amongst other things like a hair tie being at the desk, and a trash can i had to get out of my chair and move. Listen to the ratings, this was horrible
horrible..... makes it almost impossible to do on a desk top (not everyone owns one) and then it feels like a way to scam people out of $130 when you get kicked out fix this and fix the proctors attitude
This was just a phenomenal way to take my proctored exam! thank you so much
This was an amazing way to take my proctored exam! thank you so much for making this available!
kicked out three times and had to keep showing my enivornment
If i could do no stars i would, by far the WORST experience while testing i have ever experienced. Apparently my dogs couldn't even be in room and they barked the WHOLE TIME. Mind you they wouldn't even let me quiet them or say anything to them. I hate this site and the people!
I got kicked out for a camera view that went upside down due to the proctor continuously asking to view my area. Then I was told I couldn't chew gum, read out loud or rest my hand on my chin. "no covering your mouth" or "speaking out loud to yourself". That is truly ridiculous. People sometimes need to chew gum to concentrate, read out loud and touch your face, chin etc has been proven to be a thinking reaction. If you can see and hear everything that is happening why be so strict? Not a great experience. It made me more fidgety and nervous that I was going to do something and get decline my right to continue and obviously it could show in my results. Very disappointing.
it worked
i got kicked out about 7 times and because my webcam wasnt showing but there was no issue. I had to call the help center and he was very nice, but when he transferred me to the service line to re-schedule the lady was rude and short with me. I asked her if i should leave the test or continue... she just rudely said my name and told me that it is my decision and would put in a request. i finally finished my exam OVER 4 HOURS LATER even though its only around under 2 hours.
Kicked out multiple times. had to do reverification every time. The proctor didn't answer questions.
