An AI service that analyzes faces in images
Deliver low-friction, state-of-the-art facial recognition
Embed facial recognition into your apps for a seamless and highly secured user experience. No machine-learning expertise is required. Features include face detection that perceives facial features and attributes—such as a face mask, glasses, or face location—in an image, and identification of a person by a match to your private repository or via photo ID.
Advanced facial recognition
Verify identity or control access with ready-for-scale face recognition.
Easy to use
Add facial recognition to your apps—all through a single API call.

Apply facial recognition to a range of scenarios
Detect, identify, and analyze faces in images and videos. Build on this technology to support various scenarios—for example, introduce new users by verifying their identity, authenticate users for access control, or redact faces from images.
