## What is a Face Liveness Detection API?

A Face Liveness Detection API analyzes facial inputs to determine whether they exhibit characteristics consistent with a live user interaction.

[Explore API Documentation](https://docs.deepvue.ai/reference/forensics/face/face-liveness-check)

This API is commonly referred to as

Face Liveness Detection APILiveness Detection APIPassive Liveness APIFace Anti-Spoof API

Organizations use this API for

support fraud prevention workflows

identify potential spoofing attempts

strengthen onboarding verification processes

enhance authentication systems

The **Deepvue Liveness Detection API** helps strengthen fraud prevention and reduce reliance on manual verification.

## Why Liveness Detection Matters

Digital systems are increasingly exposed to risks such as photo-based spoofing, video replay attempts, and synthetic or manipulated inputs. Face comparison alone may not detect these scenarios.

Systems without liveness detection are vulnerable to

photo-based spoofing

video replay attempts

synthetic or manipulated inputs

Liveness detection provides an additional layer by analyzing

real-time interaction patterns

image characteristics

input consistency

One selfie. Liveness confirmed.

Passive anti-spoof detection — no blinking, no head turns, no friction.

## What This API Enables

The Deepvue Liveness Detection API enables organizations to:

Analyze Liveness Signals

analyze liveness-related signals from facial inputs

Identify Spoofing Indicators

identify potential spoofing indicators

Support Fraud Risk Assessment

support fraud risk assessment workflows

Strengthen Onboarding

strengthen onboarding and authentication systems

Real-Time Liveness Checks

integrate real-time liveness checks into applications

## How the API Works

A four-step workflow from selfie capture to liveness result.

01

Capture Selfie

Capture a selfie image as part of a user-consented onboarding or authentication workflow.

02

Analyze Input

The API analyzes facial input characteristics and patterns.

03

Evaluate Signals

Models evaluate signals associated with liveness and potential spoofing.

04

Liveness Result

A liveness result and confidence score are returned.

Detect spoofs before they reach your system.

Passive liveness detection — one selfie, instant fraud signal analysis.

## Consent & Data Handling

Liveness detection workflows are designed for user-consented and lawful verification processes.

Liveness detection workflows are intended to be used within **user-consented and lawful verification processes**, such as onboarding and authentication.

Selfie images submitted to the API are expected to be:

user-provided inputs

part of consented workflows

Deepvue provides processing infrastructure for analyzing inputs and **does not independently initiate or control capture** of biometric data.

## Developer Preview

See how a single API call analyzes a selfie for liveness signals.

API Request

POST /v1/kyc/face-liveness

{
  "selfie": "<image>"
}

Input Parameters

selfie

image — user-provided image (jpeg/png)

API Response (Simplified)

{
  "data": {
    "is\_live": true,
    "score": 95
  }
}

## Passive Liveness, Fraud Signals & Integration Quality

Passive detection capabilities, anti-spoof signal coverage, and integration considerations.

Passive Liveness Detection Passive

Deepvue provides passive facial liveness detection — no user interaction required:

works without requiring user interaction

operates on single-image inputs

reduces friction in onboarding

supports seamless user experiences

Designed for low-friction selfie-based verification.

Fraud Risk Signals & Anti-Spoof Anti-Spoof

Common attack surfaces analyzed by the API:

photo-based spoof attempts

screen replay scenarios

printed image inputs

basic manipulated or synthetic inputs

Use alongside broader verification workflows for defense in depth.

Integration Quality Integration

Performance and quality considerations for selfie inputs:

image clarity and lighting

camera quality and resolution

upload format (jpeg/png)

network latency

consent and capture flow design

Can be combined with downstream face match or document verification.

Passive. Real-time. Zero friction.

Liveness detection that works with a single selfie — no SDK required.
