The API supports various operations such as CreateCollection, IndexFaces, SearchFacesByImage, SearchFaces, CompareFaces, DetectFaces, ListFaces, and DeleteFaces. These operations facilitate a wide range of applications, including event photo-tagging, KYC and identity verification, security and access control, touchless attendance, and more.
SightRadar's pricing model is transparent and pay-as-you-go, billed per photo processed rather than per face. This model is pegged below AWS Rekognition, offering significant cost savings. Real-time processing costs $0.00093 per photo, while batch processing is priced at $0.00062 per photo. Storage of indexed face vectors is charged at $6 per million per month.
The platform emphasizes data privacy and security, ensuring that face data is treated as sensitive biometric information. SightRadar does not use customer data for training models and supports data-subject deletion requests in compliance with GDPR and BIPA regulations. Each account's data is isolated and encrypted, ensuring privacy and security.
SightRadar is ideal for developers and businesses looking for a reliable and cost-effective face recognition solution. Its compatibility with AWS Rekognition and flexible pricing make it suitable for various industries, including event management, financial services, education, and more.
