AI Analysis
Our AI compares facial features and detects spoofing attempts.
Get Results
Receive match status, confidence score, and detected demographics.
A match / no-match a human can sign off on
Every face match comes back as a single result card: pass or fail, how confident we are, who we matched against, and a flagged note if we spotted anything unusual like a screen or a mask attempt. No fiddling with thresholds or confidence knobs — the decision is already made.

POPIA Compliant
No biometric data stored. Full compliance with South African privacy regulations.
