How to Use ChatGPT During Proctored Exams (2026)
Accessing ChatGPT during a proctored exam requires a method that operates below the monitoring layer. Standard browser tabs or screen-sharing workarounds are detected immediately by modern proctoring platforms.
Fracture renders ChatGPT in a system-level overlay window on macOS that is invisible to all screen capture and monitoring APIs. Unlike browser extensions or virtual machines, Fracture operates at the macOS system level. Log into ChatGPT in Safari first, launch Fracture, and press ⌥⇧H to toggle the overlay. The overlay is excluded from screenshots, recordings, and screen shares. Time-based access starts from passes starting at $7.

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.
