The Challenge of Remote Interview Integrity

When interviews move online, maintaining integrity becomes more complex. How do you ensure candidates are who they say they are? How do you detect when someone is getting unauthorized help? Traditional manual monitoring is expensive, intrusive, and doesn't scale.

Enter AI Proctoring

CrossCam's AI proctoring runs silently in the background during your interviews. It monitors video feeds from both cameras—your computer webcam and optional mobile device—looking for specific integrity concerns.

What the AI Detects

Our AI monitoring looks for three key events:

  • No face detected: When the candidate leaves the frame or their camera is blocked
  • Multiple faces in frame: When additional people appear on camera
  • Looking away from screen: When the candidate's attention shifts away for extended periods

Every event is timestamped and logged, creating an audit trail you can review after the interview.

Privacy-First Design

Unlike intrusive proctoring systems, CrossCam's AI doesn't watch every eye movement or track mouse clicks. It focuses on objective, verifiable events. Candidates are informed about monitoring through your consent banner, and you control all the data.

The Dual-Camera Advantage

With two camera angles, you get comprehensive coverage. The front camera shows the candidate's face and reactions, while the mobile camera provides environmental context. This dual perspective gives you confidence without being overbearing.

Reviewing the Results

After each interview, you receive a complete integrity log showing every flagged event with timestamps. Review these alongside your recording and transcript to make informed decisions. The AI doesn't make judgments—it provides you with the information to make your own.

Trust, But Verify

AI proctoring isn't about surveillance—it's about confidence. You trust your candidates, but you also need verifiable records for compliance, fairness, and quality. CrossCam gives you both.
