AI Photo Matching
Facial recognition compares uploaded photos against stored cases, with every match reviewed by a human investigator before it's confirmed
Similarity Comparison
The embedding is compared against stored cases, producing a ranked list of possible matches.
Investigator Review
Matches above a confidence threshold enter a review queue. No match is confirmed by AI alone.
Why Human Review Matters
AI confidence scores help investigators prioritize which cases to review first, but no identification is finalized by the system alone. Every suggested match goes through an investigator's approve/reject queue before it affects a case.
