A New Way to Scan with Akindi

Akindi, a web-based scanning tool, offers instructors an efficient and secure way to administer bubble-sheet tests. With Akindi, use any copier-scanner to print and scan forms from your home or office—no need for a trip to the Testing Center. Integrated within Canvas, Akindi offers one-click grading, randomized questions to help maintain academic integrity during testing, and enhanced data protection to ensure the privacy and security of both test and tester data.

In our Fall 2025 Testing Center announcement, we introduced Akindi, which replaced Scantron form scanning December 1, 2025. The FSU Testing Center no longer supports Scantron services.
