New here?
Faciey is a face-recognition app. People add their own face and the links they publish; anyone who sees them can scan the face and reach all of it. Nobody is in it who did not put themselves there.
How it works
What it is
What Faciey's face recognition does
Most face recognition tools are built to identify anyone, from anywhere, using faces collected without asking. Faciey is built the other way round: it recognises people who added their own face and switched discoverability on, and it returns what those people chose to publish — their name, their verified badge, and every link on their profile.
That is a narrower product, and a far more useful one for the job most people actually have: you met someone, saw someone or filmed someone, and you want the account, not a dossier.
What it can find
- A person's display name, bio and verified badge
- Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, LinkedIn, GitHub and personal sites
- Shops, booking pages and newsletters — whatever they put on their profile
- Every face in a group photo, as separate results

Why this one
Recognition you could defend in public.
Opt-in, and only opt-in
Nobody is in the database who did not put themselves there. No scraping, ever.
