Get Zayeed
Open it in a browser, or install it on the machine in front of you. Every build is the same library, the same engine and the same marks — there is no reduced edition among them.
Web app
Open it and it works, including offline: the database is a full SQLite replica in the browser's own private file system. Install it from the address bar for an icon and a window of its own.
Open Zayeed →Windows
Adds the three things a browser cannot: a real .mcq file on disk, lockdown mode for an invigilated sitting, and seeing another Zayeed device on the same network so two machines sync with no server involved.
Linux
The same native shell as Windows, with the same lockdown mode and the same direct sync between two machines on one network.
Download · 5.4 MBAndroid
Writes papers as well as sitting them: same sets, same engine, same rules, same statistics, same certificates — and the pack’s on-screen keyboard, so an unsupported script is still answerable. Save and open a .mcq through the share sheet.

Licensing
Zayeed is closed source. Licensing is not open yet and nothing is purchasable — the pricing page explains the shape it will take. Want a build for an estate we have not listed, or an air-gapped deployment? Ask.
Still deciding?
The fastest way to judge a marker is to try to break it. Run a paper, answer it badly on purpose, and read the reason next to every mark.
