How does a face search engine work?
Upload a clear face photo
JPG, PNG or WEBP, up to 10MB. Front-facing, eyes visible, one face in frame works best.
The engine scans the public web
Facial geometry is compared against millions of public pages. Candidates appear ranked by match confidence as they arrive.
Click the source to verify
Every match carries a source URL. Open the page to confirm the context yourself before drawing conclusions.
How is a face engine different from web search?
Web search engines rank pages by text and links. A face search engine ranks photos by facial geometry. Same idea, different signal, and only against the public web.
Ranked match candidates
Results arrive ranked by facial-geometry similarity, so the strongest candidates surface first instead of being buried in a long list.
Source URL on every result
Each match links back to the public page where the photo appears. Click through to confirm context before you act on a result.

Who uses a face search engine?
Identity verification
Confirm the photos on a dating profile, marketplace listing, or freelance bio actually belong to the person you are dealing with.
Digital-footprint audit
See where your own face appears on the public web. Old social posts, scraped datasets, news archives. Useful before a job hunt.
Find old contacts
Track down a classmate, colleague, or relative when you have a photo but not a name. Click the source page to learn who they are.
Investigative research
Journalists and OSINT practitioners use the engine to trace a face across the web, verify sources, and identify subjects in archive photos.
Common questions
What is a face search engine?
A face search engine is a tool that reads the facial geometry in a photo you upload and scans the public web for other photos of the same person. Face Search AI is one of these tools. Upload a clear face photo and the engine returns ranked match candidates, each with a source URL so you can click through and verify.
How does the engine work?
You upload a clear face photo. The engine computes a facial-geometry signature and compares it against millions of indexed public web pages. Candidates are scored by similarity and returned ranked, with the source URL for each result. Most searches finish in 5 to 12 seconds.
Is the engine free?
Yes. Anonymous users get 3 free searches per day with no card and no signup. Paid plans start at $7.77 per month for higher daily volume. The free tier is enough for casual identity checks and occasional 'where else does this photo appear' lookups.
What images does it search?
Only the public web. Pages anyone can open in a browser without logging in. The engine does not index private social-media accounts, login-walled sites, CCTV feeds, or government databases.
Is reverse face search legal?
Searching publicly available images is lawful in most jurisdictions, and Face Search AI only indexes the public web. Biometric-privacy laws differ by region; the service is unavailable where it cannot operate compliantly. We geofence rather than cut corners.
How is a face search engine different from Google Images?
Google Images ranks images by page context and visual similarity, but not by facial-geometry matching. A face search engine like {site} focuses specifically on the face and returns candidates where the same person appears, even in very different photos.
