Match the selfie to the document photo, with an explainable match score.

What it checks

The face on the selfie, matched to the one on the document.

Atlas Face finds the portrait on the document, compares it with the selfie and tells you why it concludes what it does.

  • Face detection

    The portrait is located on the document and on the selfie before any comparison.

  • Match score

    One score per verification, compared with your threshold; below it, the file goes to review.

  • Adjustable threshold

    You set the threshold to match your risk appetite, and can change it at any time.

  • Several faces

    A selfie with several people is flagged rather than compared at random.

  • Reused portrait

    The document photo presented as a selfie is recognised and rejected.

  • Biometrics deleted

    Selfie and face template deleted when the file closes, unless you choose otherwise.

How it works

One comparison, one score, one explanation.

  1. 1 Document read Atlas ID extracts the portrait printed on the document.
  2. 2 Guided selfie The customer centres their face in the oval; quality is checked.
  3. 3 Comparison The two faces are compared and a score is computed.
  4. 4 Decision Above the threshold, the check passes; below it, an analyst decides.
