Use AI-powered video to know exactly when specific people are on your premises without compromising privacy. Face Match leverages your existing cameras to catalog on-site visitors and send instant alerts if someone within your self-managed database or outside it is detected.

Stop Potential Threats With Face Match

Face Match shifts your surveillance from recording evidence to proactively responding by automating face detection across all connected cameras. By continuously correlating appearances against your private watchlists, your team can know when people of interest are on premises and understand movement patterns in real time.

Self-managed private galleries

Reduce liability by matching only against your own privately curated databases to ensure compliance and protect privacy.

Continuous face detection

Face Match automatically scans video feeds to detect human faces and compare them against your privately managed gallery for instant matching.

Customized gallery additions

Individual photos can be added to the gallery to recognize deactivated employees or contractors, even before they appear on camera.

Real-time watchlist alerts

Build lists for your specific needs and get notified when a face on the list — or not on the list — is detected on site.

Privacy-first signatures

To ensure compliance, the system creates unique facial signatures based on 50+ characteristics rather than storing raw biometric data.
