About Honorlock

Honorlock provides online proctoring services for academic institutions and professional education programs. The company's platform uses a combination of artificial intelligence and live proctors to monitor students during online exams, aiming to prevent cheating and protect academic integrity.

The service integrates with major learning management systems (LMS) such as Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. When a student takes an exam, Honorlock's system uses the student's webcam to monitor for behaviors that could indicate cheating. The AI can detect actions like looking away from the screen for too long, the presence of another person in the room, or the use of a mobile phone. If the AI detects suspicious behavior, it can alert a live proctor who can then intervene in real-time.

The business model is primarily B2B, with Honorlock contracting directly with universities, colleges, and other educational organizations. These institutions then make the service available to their students, often for a fee per exam or per student. The company operates in the expanding market of online education and remote testing, a sector that has seen significant growth.
