Every Attendance Mode. One Biometric Engine.
Mounted, handheld, CCTV walkthrough, or in-app - deploy face-based attendance on any channel with NIST-benchmarked accuracy, passive liveness, and zero proxy risk.
How Attendance Works Across Channels
Why Static Photo Matching Isn't Enough
Low-cost attendance systems typically rely on static image comparison APIs - cheap, but with no liveness check, so a printed photo or a phone screen held up to the camera can pass. Genuine video-based liveness from the large cloud providers is usually challenge-based and priced for low-volume, high-value transactions like banking KYC - rarely affordable for daily attendance at scale. FaceTagr closes that gap: passive, video-based liveness at a cost structure built for high-volume daily attendance.
Register Once. Recognized Everywhere.
One registration syncs instantly across mounted, handheld, and CCTV channels - every result flows back to the same HRMS record. No re-enrollment per device, no separate hardware per use case. App-based and in-app attendance runs on the FaceTagr SDK - see the SDK page.
The Surprise Attendance Layer
Randomized re-verification prompts through the shift catch punch-in-and-leave fraud that a fixed check-in / check-out can't.
Attendance modes
Embedded SDK - 1:1 or 1:N
Fits inside your HRMS, WFM, or payroll app. Verification, identification, and passive liveness can run on-device and fully offline on Android and iOS.
Mounted Kiosk - 1:N
Offices, factories, and high-traffic gates. Fixed check-in point: register and verify in one glance, fully on-device.
Handheld - 1:N
Field and mobile supervisors. Attendance goes wherever the workforce moves, no fixed installation.
CCTV - N:N
Passive, high-volume environments. Recognises multiple people at once through existing RTSP/ONVIF cameras, with no active check-in step.
API Integrated
RESTful API for server-side integration with HRMS, ERP, or custom workforce platforms - 1:1 and 1:N.
Offline-First
Mobile SDK, mounted, handheld, and CCTV biometric decisions can run entirely at the edge. Records can queue without connectivity and sync when it returns.
Edge-First, Cloud Only Where It Counts
The mobile SDK can perform detection, passive liveness, 1:1 verification, and 1:N identification on-device without a continuous internet connection. Mounted, handheld, and CCTV channels can also process at the edge. The host application can reconnect later to synchronise attendance and workforce records.

The Commodity Hardware Advantage
Mounted and handheld channels run on off-the-shelf phones and tablets - not proprietary biometric terminals. Hardware stays cheap and easy to replace, while the software still delivers enterprise-grade intelligence.
Fully Offline Intelligence
Detection, recognition, and liveness all run on the device - no internet needed for a single punch.
Wireless With Power Backup
Standard phones and tablets, wireless, with battery backup that carries through outages - no dedicated power line.
Voice-Enabled Notifications
Greets each employee by name and carries custom organisation-level messages.
Knows In From Out
The system recognises whether a punch is a check-in or check-out and prompts accordingly - no manual toggle.
Duplicate and Blacklist Screening
Registration checks new faces against existing and blacklisted records before an employee is ever enrolled.
Extended Offline Storage
Records queue safely on-device and sync automatically on reconnect. Duration scales with headcount and check volume.
Enterprise Rollout Without Enterprise Friction
Wireless from day one
Kiosks and handheld devices are commissioned over Wi-Fi - no structured cabling, no facilities project.
One console, every site
Provision, monitor, and update every channel - SDK, kiosk, handheld, CCTV - from a single dashboard.
Native sync to HRMS and payroll
Attendance, identity, and exceptions post directly into your platform - no parallel system to reconcile.
Hundreds of devices, one day
Wireless provisioning means large fleets go live fast - proven at hundreds of devices deployed in a single day.

Built for How HR and Workforce Teams Actually Work
FaceTagr is integrated with SAP SuccessFactors, PeopleStrong, PeopleHum, Zoho, and ZingHR, and ships embedded inside partner HRMS, WFM, and payroll platforms through the SDK and REST API - 1:1 verification and 1:N identification, cloud or edge. Attendance, exceptions, and shift data land in the system of record your payroll already runs on, with the field realities of distributed HR built in: intermittent connectivity, contract labour churn, multi-site supervisors, and month-end payroll cut-offs.
Deploy Attendance Your Way
Mounted, handheld, CCTV, in-app, or API - one platform, every channel.
