Selfie Intelligence

Add Selfie Intelligence to your workflow to capture live selfies, verify liveness, and detect spoofing or injection attacks in real time.

What is Selfie Intelligence?

Selfie Intelligence provides a selfie-only verification flow using Socure’s Capture App or SDKs. It enables organizations to collect a live selfie from a user without requiring any ID documents, and applies advanced biometric and fraud-detection checks to determine whether the selfie is genuine and captured in real time.

Selfie Intelligence is designed for fast, low-friction verification scenarios—such as age checks, security validation, and trust & safety workflows—where a live selfie provides the assurance needed without the overhead of document capture.


How it works

  • Live selfie capture: The user captures a selfie using the Capture App or SDKs.
  • Liveness detection: The system verifies that the selfie was taken by a live person, not a spoof (photo, screen, video, mask, etc.).
  • Injection attack protection: Detects attempts to bypass the camera by feeding manipulated or pre-recorded images into the capture flow.
  • Selfie age estimation: Produces an estimated age, enabling age-gating or policy checks.
  • Digital Intelligence: Device and behavioral signals help identify risky or abnormal activity.

Selfie Intelligence can be used globally wherever selfie capture workflows are supported.
