About YuJa
YuJa's suite updates lean on proctoring, analytics and LMS-embedded workflows.
YuJa ships suite-wide version trains (v25.6, v25.7) across separate products: Verity proctoring, Engage polling, Lumina video, FeedbackFlow assessment, and accessibility tools. Updates focus on misconduct detection, engagement analytics, and tighter LMS embedding. The newest captured entry is from October 2025, so the feed is a year stale.
