Video

A Video question asks candidates to respond on camera. They can record a video directly in the browser using their webcam, or upload a pre-recorded video file. Video responses are evaluated using AI or reviewed manually with a rubric.

Writing the Question

Write your question prompt using the content editor. Be specific about what the candidate should present — the topic, format, duration, and any preparation instructions. See Content Editor and Layout.

Recording vs Upload

• Browser recording — candidates record using their webcam directly in the assessment. The browser requests camera and microphone permission.
• File upload — candidates upload a prepared video file. Useful for presentation tasks or portfolio-style assessments where candidates prepare in advance.

Recording Limitations

In the question editor, choose Video Recorder and go to Answer → Input → Limitations. Enable Time of the recording to set the maximum recording duration in seconds or minutes. Enable Retry limit to select how many recording attempts a candidate can make. If these settings are disabled, no recording time limit or retry limit is applied.

Supported File Formats

The browser records in its native video format — no client-side transcoding. The container and file extension depend on the browser:

AI Evaluation

Enable AI evaluation to automatically score video responses. The AI evaluates the submission against your grading prompt and returns a score and feedback text. Write a prompt that describes what a strong video response looks like — content, delivery, structure, or any specific criteria relevant to your assessment. See AI Evaluation.

To configure AI evaluation, open Answer → Evaluation → Add Automation in the Video Recorder question editor. Select an AI model, choose the response Language (or Auto-detect), and enter the required instructions for AI evaluation. Click Save to enable the automation. You can edit or remove it from the Evaluation panel later.

Rubric Scoring

Attach a rubric to evaluate video responses against structured criteria — such as presentation skills, content accuracy, body language, or communication clarity. Reviewers watch the video and score each criterion. See Rubric Scoring.

Common Features

Video questions also support Point Scoring, Dimensions, Hint, Answer Explanations, Question Metadata (folders, tags, and labels), and Preview & Scoring Simulation. The question editor provides Save and Save & Add Another actions.
