AI Overlay for Cirrus Assessment on Mac

Cirrus Assessment is a UK-based exam delivery platform used in financial services certifications, government testing, and a number of professional bodies in Europe. Cirrus integrates with Examus, ProctorExam, and other proctors for remote sessions.

Cirrus is the assessment engine; proctoring is delegated. UK financial-services exams (CFA chapters, CISI, ACCA at some delivery centers) sometimes use Cirrus + Examus; European certs may pair Cirrus with ProctorExam. Both proctors run as browser extensions on Mac and use macOS capture APIs; both APIs respect window privacy. The result is identical to using Examus or ProctorExam standalone: the overlay is missing from every captured frame.

Some Cirrus exams are unproctored open-book. If yours is, no overlay is needed; you can use any browser plus AI directly.

CFA chapters use ProctorU as the primary proctor with Cirrus as the engine. The overlay is invisible to ProctorU's capture on Mac.

No. The overlay does not interact with the webcam. Cirrus records your face normally; only the screen has window privacy.
