About these examples

Measured with Facenet, opencv and cosine distance on 2026-10-09. Vector cells show the measured embedding components; they aren’t facial landmarks. These examples explain the API, not its accuracy on your users. Compare embeddings from the same model and settings.

How the pricing works

Completed processing counts, including a non-match or no-face result. Invalid requests and service failures aren’t charged. Priority processing costs twice the standard rate.

Volume discounts use your last 30 days of calls. Auto top-up adds up to 20% off.
