AI Overlay for Talview - Use ChatGPT During Talview Proctoring

Updated October 2026 · 3 min read · Tested with LockDown Browser v2.1.6.01

Talview is the AI proctoring platform behind a large slice of IT-certification, BFSI, and enterprise hiring exams. It runs in the browser via the Talview Secure Browser or a Chrome extension and combines automated behavior analysis with optional human review.

Talview's monitoring stack focuses on three signals: continuous screen capture from the browser, webcam-based eye and head tracking, and audio analysis for second voices. The screen layer is the only one an overlay tool can address, and it is the layer that fails most often for proctoring vendors. Talview's capture funnels through WebRTC and Chrome's tab-capture path, both of which honor the same macOS window-level privacy flag that Fracture sets. The webcam and audio layers are unrelated to the overlay and behave normally.

Talview's VM checks rely on browser-exposed system fingerprints and timing heuristics. Running an overlay does not invoke a VM, so VM-detection signals do not fire.

Eye-tracking watches your gaze relative to the webcam frame. Reading content on the overlay keeps your eyes on the screen, which is the same direction the proctor expects.

No. Fracture is macOS-only. Mobile Talview proctoring uses the phone's native camera and screen, which is a different stack we do not target.

The Safe macOS Solution

Need reference access during your exam?

Fracture runs a native floating overlay that sets the macOS window privacy flag. It is 100% excluded from screen capture feeds, window lists, and proctor recordings.
