Why MonitorExam Uses a Prepaid Credit Model?
Running secure, reliable digital assessments is not just about proctoring—it’s about trust. Institutions trust us to deliver a smooth exam experience, protect academic integrity, and scale flawlessly on their most important days.
To keep that promise every single time, MonitorExam uses a prepaid credit model.
This post explains why prepaid is better for customers and how it ensures fairness, transparency, and uninterrupted performance.
1. Exams Are Seasonal — Costs Are Not
Most institutions run exams in cycles: monthly, quarterly, or semester-wise.
But our infrastructure—GPU servers, storage, AI inference pipelines, monitoring—needs to stay ready all year round.
A prepaid model helps us:
Reserve compute capacity ahead of your exam window
Ensure faster scaling during peak exam days
Keep high-accuracy AI models active without sudden cost spikes
In short: you get guaranteed performance during crunch time.
2. Simple, Predictable Budgeting
Many institutions prefer a clear upfront cost rather than a variable monthly invoice.
With prepaid credits:
You know exactly how many exams you can conduct
You can align with institutional budgeting cycles
No hidden fees or surprise invoices
It works exactly like topping up SMS/WhatsApp credits — simple, transparent, predictable.

3. Lower Prices Through Volume
Prepaid allows us to discount at scale.
Because we can forecast usage better, we pass savings back to customers in the form of:
Lower per-exam costs
Tiered discounts for larger purchases
Special academic pricing for schools, colleges, and NGOs
The more you commit upfront, the more you save.

4. Guaranteed Slot Availability
During peak exam weeks, cloud GPU resources across AWS/GCP/Azure get expensive and scarce.
Your prepaid credits allow us to:
Pre-allocate GPU/CPU resources
Run AI proctoring models without throttling
Maintain stable video pipelines and instant scoring
Ensure your exam “just works,” even if the cloud is busy
Think of it as reserving exam lanes ahead of time.

5. Zero Billing Stress for Admins
Admins already juggle enough on exam day.
A prepaid model means:
No invoices to reconcile during or after exams
No per-hour or per-minute calculations
No fluctuating usage bills
Just use your credits, run exams, and focus on outcomes—not accounting.

6. Encourages Responsible Exam Planning
Prepaid credits naturally create a smoother process:
Institutions allocate credits to departments
Departments schedule and manage exams within planned capacity
Unnecessary last-minute exams are avoided
This structure helps keep exam operations clean, organised, and predictable.

7. Credits Never Go to Waste
We understand that academic calendars change.
So we designed our prepaid system to be student-friendly:
Long validity (12 months or more)
Flexible exam types
Free upgrades if proctoring technology improves
Easy top-ups at any stage
You can use your credits across subjects, batches, and departments without restrictions.

Fair pricing
Predictable budgeting
High reliability during busy exam days
Discounts based on commitment
A smoother experience for both exam admin and students
