While face recognition software was once a luxury, it is now essential for law enforcement agencies, including police, border protection, military, Gendarmerie, and intelligence agencies.

With software that supports face recognition, you can register a person of interest and check photos and live feeds for an exact match.

The benefits of this are numerous but include gathering data on people wanted for crimes, potentially on the run, or for general screening. For example, should this person be allowed past the border?

Upgrading your current systems and technology to include face recognition software doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive, either. For instance, FaceRecognition.io contains no upfront investment, no maintenance, and can be ready to use in minutes.

So, with this in mind, the remainder of this blog post will highlight the advantages of our popular face recognition software as a service, how to use it, and more.  If you want to learn more about what Software as a Service is, and what opportunities it brings, take a look at our blog post: Face Recognition Software as a Service

What are the advantages of using FaceRecognition.io?

To start with, there are several advantages of choosing FaceRecognition.io over other face recognition software options.

Advantages include:

• No upfront investment or maintenance needs
• No development team or outsourcing for support – all tools are prepared by us, ready for use
• State of the art facial recognition system
• No need for API integration
• Easy to import data

These advantages will now be discussed in more detail below.

No upfront investment or maintenance needs

There is no upfront investment required; this includes hardware costs, servers, GPUs, or other expenses, and often unnecessary kit provided by other software providers.

Instead, you can begin using our platform in as little as a few minutes, downloading the compatible mobile app for screening on the go. This is ideal for military personnel, traffic police, and those working border protection.

Also, there is no maintenance – we manage and support our app and services ourselves.

No development team or outsourcing for support

Following on from our previous point, there is no need for a development team or outsourcing for support.

Instead, we manage our state-of-the-art facial recognition system on our end, providing you with support, a system that is quick, responsive, and accurate, without the need for expensive software or hardware.

This means less noise for you and more focus on what matters: protecting your district, city, or country.

With a system you can trust, you have the confidence to improve security, track people of interest, and provide reassurance to local communities, districts, or even countries that you’re doing the most and best to protect everyone.

No need for API integration

Unlike other facial recognition systems, FaceRecognition.io does not require you to connect your existing systems (usually legacy versions) to our services. Instead, we provide all of the necessary components – making the transition much smoother.

With no need for face recognition API, you can set up your account on our platform much quicker, with less hassle to keep your eyes on what matters.

How to use FaceRecognition.io, the right way?

Our facial recognition platform is easy to set up – you can create a trial organization account in just two minutes.

But how do you actually use it?

To get the most out of FaceRecognition.io, you should:

• Register for your account
• Create profiles of persons of interest by uploading photos and adding basic details
• Add organizational users if required (this is optional)
• Web dashboard for general person of interest search, controlling the system, and general admin

 In particular, the web dashboard provides a broad overview for person-of-interest search. Paired with the mobile app for on-the-go, this is a powerful tool for all law enforcement agencies.
