Faceplugin

What is Faceplugin?

Faceplugin is a suite of on-premises biometric AI SDKs for identity verification. The SDKs include face recognition, face liveness detection, deepfake detection, ID document recognition, ID liveness detection, and a complete ID verification suite for eKYC workflows. According to the page, the software runs on your own servers or devices, so biometric data stays within your infrastructure. The page states that the SDKs are NIST FRVT-evaluated and include iBeta Level 2 PAD / liveness certification for liveness detection.

How to use Faceplugin?

The SDKs are intended for developers and enterprises. Each capability is delivered as a native SDK that can be deployed either on-premises on Linux servers with Docker for air-gapped or VPC-friendly environments, or on mobile devices through SDKs for iOS, Android, Flutter, C++, and .NET. Deployment on mobile supports offline operation. The page states that integration requires a license key and a few methods, with comprehensive documentation and sample code available.

On-premises server deployment

Deploy the SDKs on your own servers or private cloud with Docker. Biometric data and matching do not leave your infrastructure. The page lists air-gapped / VPC-friendly operation and unlimited on-prem inference without per-call fees.

On-device mobile deployment

Run face recognition, liveness, and document capture fully on-device, even offline, for low latency and privacy. SDKs are available for iOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native.

Core features of Faceplugin

Face recognition SDK

High-speed 1:1 and 1:N face matching that runs on your own infrastructure.

Face liveness detection SDK

Passive and active liveness detection designed to block spoofing attempts using photos, videos, and masks.

Deepfake detection SDK

Detects AI-generated and manipulated media before it reaches your systems. The page shows an example analysis with AI-generated probability, facial artifacts, frequency signature, and lighting consistency indicators.

ID document recognition SDK

Extracts and verifies data from passports, licenses, and ID cards using OCR and MRZ, as shown in the document example on the page.

ID liveness detection SDK

Verifies physical ID documents and aims to stop screen replays, printouts, and fake copies.

ID verification SDK suite

Combines document capture, face matching, and liveness into one eKYC workflow. Supports passports, national IDs, and driver's licenses, accurate selfie-to-ID facial verification, and built-in liveness detection to reduce identity fraud.

Deployment flexibility

The same models are available in two deployment modes: on-premises server and on-device mobile. The page states that a single license allows unlimited biometric processing without transaction-based pricing or hidden usage fees.
