Daon IdentityX vs Neurotechnology VeriLook

Daon IdentityX is an identity management platform for verifying identities and authenticating users across mobile, web, and in-person channels. Organizations can deploy it on premises, on customer-managed cloud infrastructure, or on Daon-managed cloud infrastructure, and select individual services rather than buying the full suite. IdentityX supports document verification, face matching, liveness and age checks, and biometric methods including fingerprint, face, voice, eye, and palm. Its mobile SDKs support biometric quality assessment, speech recognition, liveness detection, and identity document capture. The platform can check government identity documents, NFC-enabled ePassports and IDs, mobile driver’s licenses, and verifiable credentials; optional connectors provide third-party checks. Its FIDO-certified server supports UAF and FIDO2 registration and authentication through compatible web apps and browsers. Integration options include REST web services APIs, iOS and Android SDKs, and browser-based components. Daon says IdentityX has ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, ISO 27701, and SOC 2 Type 2 certifications. Pricing is on request.

Neurotechnology VeriLook is a self-hosted face-recognition SDK for developers and integrators building stand-alone or client-server applications. It supports 1-to-1 face verification and 1-to-many identification, and can process multiple faces in live video and still images. The maker gives detection times of 0.01–0.86 seconds, depending on settings. Liveness detection has passive and active modes and is stated to comply with ISO 30107-3. The maker also says partially occluded faces, including masked faces, can be recognized, and near-infrared images can be matched with visible-light images. Optional tools include age estimation, gender classification, facial attributes, 68 facial feature points, face morph detection and image quality assessment. Samples and tutorials are listed for C/C++, C#, VB.NET, Java and Python. It runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android. The Standard SDK costs €339, paid once and the Extended SDK €859, paid once; both are perpetual development licenses, with component licenses required for each deployment device. A 30-day trial is available.
