Scalable, defensible test development with agentic AI
Accelerate high-quality content creation across the test development lifecycle with PSI’s purpose-built, agentic AI. Our secure, AI-driven solution embeds AI into test development workflows, combining agentic intelligence with expert oversight to deliver speed, consistency, and psychometric soundness you can trust.
From the outset, you remain actively involved in the process. Your item writing guides, style guides, approved sources, and assessment standards are incorporated directly into development workflows, helping ensure newly generated content aligns with your existing exams in both structure and tone.
Designed for rigor. Built for confidence.
We’re fundamentally reshaping test development with AI.
We’re not layering AI onto legacy workflows. We’re reimagining test development from the ground up.
Developed in close collaboration between assessment scientists and AI architects, our secure, modular solution is engineered to scale high-quality test content without compromising validity, fairness, or defensibility. Program standards, rules, and expert judgment are applied consistently across development cycles, not reintroduced each time.
Human-in-the-loop by design
Multi-agent AI validation with expert SME review ensures accuracy, alignment, and accountability at every stage.
Adaptable to your needs
Adopt the full lifecycle or individual components – including item generation, psychometric review, or item bank updates – and expand over time in the same governed environment.
Ongoing content management
When your source materials, references, or standards change, you can apply updates across existing items without restarting development. You can also generate additional content at any time using the same governed standards, supporting long-term growth and maintenance of your item bank.
Transform Test Development
We know the bottlenecks, and we’ve solved them
With 75+ psychometricians and decades of experience across high-stakes testing, we understand the real-world challenges programs face. Our integrated approach is designed to address these pain points with an intelligent, agentic ecosystem:
Reduced cost and cycle time by minimizing manual, repetitive SME workflows.
Unified AI workflows that replace fragmented tools and repeated context-setting.
Defensible, governed AI with full source traceability built in, supporting auditability, accreditation review, and regulatory scrutiny.
Scalable delivery of authentic, skills-based assessments without sacrificing rigor.
Purpose-built agentic AI, not pasted-on tools
Our approach transforms test development through agentic AI operating within a closed, governed environment. Rather than automating isolated tasks, the system coordinates how content is generated, reviewed, validated, and refined over time while preserving psychometric rigor.
Focus SME time where it matters most
Feedback, refinement, and validation.
Continuous quality reinforcement
SME feedback and decisions strengthen future outputs rather than being lost between cycles.
Enterprise-grade security
Closed, tenant-level environments with strict access controls, full audit trails and no cross-client or public model training.
Supports all formats
Including advanced item types and simulation-based assessments.
The AI-assisted test development lifecycle
Proven impact at scale
PSI’s AI-driven test development has already demonstrated measurable gains in quality, efficiency, and scale:
- 77.4% of AI-generated items met all psychometric thresholds vs. 75.5% human-authored.
- 65.6% of items approved for pretesting following SME review.
- 10% increase in SME retention across review batches, reflecting system learning and improved quality.
- Thousands of items produced above target with significant time and cost savings.
Advanced personalized test prep
The same governed AI foundation that powers PSI’s AI test development also enables AI-assisted test prep. Practice content, adaptive study tools, and AI learning assistants are built from the same structured knowledge base, helping candidates focus their study where it matters most. Preparation and live assessment environments remain structurally separated to protect exam integrity.

Success stories
“PSI has been a great fit for us. They listen, they lead, and they help us focus on what matters most: delivering a high-quality certification experience.”
“We knew PSI would continue to be a great partner to help support the development of this new certification. I don’t think we would have even thought about going anywhere else, because we already have such a great relationship with PSI for test development.”
"I would underscore that PSI was consistently committed to meeting our deadlines through the many challenges of a pandemic. It’s impressive how dedicated they were to see the project through and get the job done during a period of unforeseen roadblocks."
"This [hybrid insurance exam] is revolutionary for the insurance industry, both from a regulatory standpoint and for PSI’s online proctoring itself."
"We’re growing rapidly, and the partnership with PSI has enabled that to happen."
"We wanted a partner who can deliver exams anywhere, anytime without someone having to go to a physical testing center. The gap in the market was ‘access’ and PSI was committed to delivering exams in real time, online."
"This is an ongoing partnership with PSI which will evolve and improve as we each learn more about our respective markets and skill sets. We are looking to move more of our exams to an anytime, anywhere model. This allows us to continue to put the learner, irrespective of their age, at the center of our plans."
"I have tremendously enjoyed working with PSI. They have been a very responsive partner, always working to improve the customer experience, innovating at every step. I continue to be impressed by how responsive they are to client needs."
"PSI is always willing to do the right thing. It gives me the confidence I need that they really understand what we as an organization are trying to do and how we want our candidates to feel."
"I think PSI will be at the forefront of emerging technology. As the testing industry has changed over the last 30 years, if you’re not at the forefront you’re not going to survive."
"PSI has helped us develop the way that we test at the campus level, and that’s really built our business since 2010."
