What FACEIO Does

Secure Facial Authentication
for Websites, Apps & Corporate Portals

FACEIO helps product and development teams add passwordless facial authentication to existing login flows. Use fio.js to enroll new users and authenticate returning users across modern browsers and devices.

Liveness detection icon

Built-In Liveness & Anti-Spoofing

Check that a real person is in front of the camera during enrollment and authentication, helping your application reject photos, videos, and other spoofing attempts.

Facial authentication icon

Face Authentication

Let users enroll once and authenticate with their face when they return. FACEIO runs in the browser while your application keeps control of user accounts and access rules.

Access check icon

Secure Access Check

Combine facial authentication with PIN Code validation to protect customer accounts, employee portals, and other restricted areas of your website or web application.

For Developers & Product Teams

Deploy Facial Authentication Across Your Websites & Apps

Create a FACEIO application, add the fio.js library to your website, then call enroll() to register new users and authenticate() when they return.

Integrate FACEIO in Four Steps

1

Create a FACEIO Application

Use the Application Wizard in the FACEIO Console, copy your App Public ID, and add the domain where FACEIO will run.

Open Console
2

Configure Authentication Settings

Works With Your Frontend

Use FACEIO With Any JavaScript Framework

fio.js runs directly in the browser with Vanilla JavaScript, React, Vue, Angular, Next.js, and other JavaScript stacks. No framework-specific package is required.

Add fio.js to Your Frontend

Use a framework example above or follow the main integration guide to add user enrollment and facial authentication to your website or web app.

No Framework-Specific Package Required
How FACEIO Works

Facial Authentication
Directly in the Browser

FACEIO adds a guided enrollment and authentication widget to websites and mobile web apps. Your backend keeps control of user accounts, access rules, recovery, and authorization.

With FACEIO, You Can:

  • Register new users and authenticate returning users from the browser
  • Present your notice and obtain consent before facial enrollment begins
  • Use liveness checks and the default PIN Code validation in your login flow
  • Send the result to your backend, where your application grants or denies access

Choose the Facial Recognition Engine

Select and configure the facial recognition engine used by your FACEIO application from the Console.

Control Consent and Deletion

Your website or web app presents the required notice, obtains consent, and provides a deletion process. FACEIO does not store or access biometric hashes.

Use Cloud or On-Premises Deployment

Use a supported cloud engine or deploy PixLab Insight in your own infrastructure when you need local processing and infrastructure control.

Add One JavaScript Library

Load fio.js, initialize it with your App Public ID, and call the method your user flow needs. No browser extension, native app, or dedicated biometric sensor is required.

Core Facial Authentication Capabilities

Framework-Agnostic JavaScript Library

Add facial authentication without replacing your frontend stack

  • Load fio.js in the browser and initialize it with your App Public ID
  • Use the device camera in supported browsers without a native mobile app or dedicated sensor
  • Keep account data and authorization decisions in your own backend

Passwordless Face Login

Let enrolled users sign in with their face instead of entering a password

  • Call enroll() when a user registers, then authenticate() when that user returns
  • Use the default PIN Code validation and define your own account-recovery process
  • Verify the result on your backend before creating a session or granting access

Security Controls for Facial Authentication

Combine face matching, liveness checks, and PIN Code validation

  • The selected facial recognition engine creates the biometric hash after user consent
  • FACEIO returns the authentication result without storing or accessing biometric hashes
  • Pair FACEIO with backend authorization, rate limits, and secure account recovery

Facial Age Estimation

Receive an estimated age range as an additional signal in your own workflow

  • Request an age estimate during a supported browser-based face scan
  • Define the thresholds, fallback methods, and manual review your product requires
  • Treat the estimate as a signal, not proof of age or a legal identity check
Common Use Cases

Facial Authentication for Real Business Workflows

Use FACEIO to add browser-based facial authentication to account login, employee or student check-in, agent access, and customer onboarding.

Workforce Management

Face Authentication for Employee Check-In

Authenticate employees in the browser, then send the result to your own attendance, scheduling, HR, or payroll system.

FACEIO ID Match

Match a Live Selfie to an ID Portrait

FACEIO ID Match is a browser widget that guides the user through capturing an ID document and a live selfie. It runs a liveness check, compares the selfie with the portrait extracted from the ID, and can return selected document fields.

ID scanning and optional field extraction are powered by the PixLab DOCSCAN API, which supports 11K+ ID document formats across over 197 countries and territories. ID Match does not authenticate the document or replace KYC.

Captured images and scan data are processed in RAM and deleted after the result is generated, whether the match succeeds or fails. No ID scan data or processing logs are retained. Your application remains responsible for document validation and every downstream decision.

What ID Match Does

  • Guides the user through ID document capture, live selfie capture, a liveness check, and a 1:1 face comparison.
  • Powered by PixLab DOCSCAN for broad document coverage, including passports, national IDs, driver's licenses, visas, and residence permits.
  • Returns the selfie-to-portrait match result, liveness result, and any document fields you requested.
  • Runs in desktop and mobile browser sessions without requiring a native mobile app.
  • Can be used during account creation, then paired with FACEIO facial authentication for future passwordless login.

Keep Selfie-to-ID Matching Inside Your Web Flow

ID Match compares two faces and optionally extracts document fields. It does not authenticate the ID document, perform KYC or AML checks, or decide whether a user should be approved.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About FACEIO

Understand what FACEIO does, how it integrates with your website, and which responsibilities remain with your application.

What does FACEIO do?

FACEIO adds facial authentication to websites and web apps. New users enroll through fio.js, returning users authenticate with their face, and your backend uses the returned result to create a session or apply its own access rules.

How do I add FACEIO to my website?

Create a FACEIO application in the Console, copy its App Public ID, load and initialize fio.js, then call enroll() for new users and authenticate() for returning users.

Does FACEIO store biometric hashes?

No. FACEIO, including the fio.js library, embedded widget, REST API, and Console, does not store, handle, or access biometric hashes. The facial recognition engine selected by the application owner manages biometric hashes according to the application's configuration and consent flow.

Which security controls does FACEIO provide?

FACEIO provides liveness and anti-spoofing checks, PIN Code validation enabled by default, and domain restriction options. Application owners remain responsible for backend authorization, account recovery, rate limits, and other controls required by their service. Review the security best-practice guide before production use.

Does FACEIO support accessible authentication?

The FACEIO widget includes visual and audio instructions, keyboard navigation, and screen-reader support with compatible browsers and assistive technologies. Application owners should test the complete flow and provide an alternative access method for users who cannot or do not want to use facial authentication.
