What OpenProct is

OpenProct is a free, open-source SDK for adding exam-proctoring capabilities to learning platforms. It is designed for developers rather than offered as a hosted service, and the project explicitly says it is not a SaaS proctoring product. A plugin architecture lets teams combine available features for their integration. OpenProct is self-hosted, giving the organization control over its data and infrastructure. The project describes a privacy-first approach intended to respect student privacy and data protection. It is community-driven, invites pull requests and feature requests, and is marked as under active development. The repository uses the MIT License, and the project says there are no expensive licensing fees or per-student charges. Listed platforms are web and self-hosted. The site says users can install the package and follow its documentation. OpenProct is based in India. Its model is most relevant when a learning-platform team can integrate, configure, and operate an SDK within its own environment instead of looking for a ready-made hosted proctoring service.

Good

  • Free plan available
  • Self-hosted data and infrastructure control
  • Plugin architecture supports mixed features
  • MIT-licensed open-source project
  • No per-student charges

Watch out

  • Not a hosted SaaS service
  • Requires integration into a learning platform
  • Under active development

Who it suits

OpenProct suits developers and learning-platform teams that can self-host an SDK and integrate proctoring into their own applications. It is less suited to organizations seeking a hosted SaaS proctoring service.

Verdict

OpenProct offers a free, self-hosted route to integrating proctoring into learning software. Choose it when your team can manage the integration and infrastructure rather than needing a turnkey hosted service.
