authID vs id3 Face SDK

authID provides biometric identity verification and authentication for organizations protecting accounts and digital assets. Its Proof service checks a physical ID, captures a selfie, checks liveness, and compares the selfie with the document image during onboarding. The maker says Proof does not require biometric information to be stored. For returning users, Verified uses a facial image and a previously registered biometric hash to authenticate without a password. Listed uses include remote onboarding, account recovery, password resets, high-risk transactions, and account takeover prevention. The verification page states a 700 millisecond processing time and a false match rate of one in one billion. authID lists iBeta PAD Level 2 certification for Proof and Verified, and NIST AAL2 authentication for Verified. Integrations include Auth0, Okta Workforce Identity Cloud, Microsoft O365 and Azure, BeyondTrust, Temenos, Ping, VMware, and Zendesk. Platforms include web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, with API access and self-hosted availability also listed. Pricing is on request; a free 30-day trial is available.

id3 Face SDK is a cross-platform development kit for detecting, tracking and identifying faces, with liveness checks for server, mobile and edge deployments. Facial analysis includes landmarks, pose estimation, mask detection and ICAO-compliant facial attribute determination. Recognition supports one-to-one comparisons and one-to-many database searches. Passive and active liveness detection address presentation attacks such as photos or videos. The SDK supports Windows, Linux, macOS, Android and iOS, and its listed languages include C, C++, C#, Dart, F#, Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Python, Swift and VB.NET. Developer resources include API references, integration guides and code samples. id3 says its face recognition algorithm has been evaluated in the NIST Face Recognition Technology Evaluation. Deployment is self-hosted. A developer license is required to build an application, and each end-user device requires a runtime license. Pricing is available on request. The Evaluation plan is listed at free and includes a 30-day trial, limited API calls, community support and a single platform; licensing documentation separately describes a full-featured 60-day trial license for evaluation.
