1. Technology overview
Talview traces its origins to Interview Master, founded in 2012 by IIT Bombay classmates, and became Talview Inc. in 2017. It has offices in Menlo Park (US), Bangalore (India) and London, and serves certification bodies, test publishers, universities and employers in 120+ countries, having assessed over 10 million candidates.
Its assessment suite combines an online exam engine (STEM, coding and typing questions), bookings and payments, ID verification, a secure browser and three proctoring modes: automated, record-and-review and live. Alvy, an LLM-based proctoring agent that Talview describes as patented, monitors device, browser, video, audio, identity, behaviour and network signals, intervenes in real time and since 2025 can run live sessions on its own. The same platform offers AI interviewing for hiring.
2. Highlighted features & specifications

4. Benefits
- Scale without proctor headcount: 24/7 automated monitoring and Alvy Autopilot handle ID checks, environment scans and warnings.
- Stronger integrity: layered trust scoring across seven signal layers targets impersonation and AI-assisted cheating.
- Works on weak connections: designed for low internet speeds and multiple time zones.

5. Market trends & opportunities
Online and remote testing has become permanent for certifications, university entrance and corporate skills checks, while generative AI tools and smart glasses create new cheating risks. Universities and training providers in Vietnam and Southeast Asia that run online exams need proctoring that scales without large invigilator teams.
