How face attendance works
From a face at the gate to a marked register — the capture, matching, anti-spoof, and sync flow in plain terms.

Every capture follows the same fast, private path. No raw photos are stored — only an encrypted mathematical embedding of each enrolled face.
- 1CaptureA student or staff member walks past the tablet camera. The device takes a live frame.
- 2Liveness checkOn-device anti-spoof verifies a real, present face — blink, depth, and micro-movement. Photos, phone screens, and masks are rejected and logged.
- 3MatchThe face is matched against your school’s enrolled faces in under 2 seconds.
- 4Mark & syncA match is recorded with a timestamp and the gate it came through, and pushed to Nucleus in real time.
- 5AlertParents of absentees get a WhatsApp/SMS alert; the class teacher gets a morning absence roster.
99.7% accurate, sub-2-second
In independent pilots the miss rate dropped below 0.3% after a week of normal use. A busy gate clears up to ~30 students per minute; with 4 gates a 2,000-student school finishes the morning rush in under 15 minutes.
Throughput and gate count depend on your plan — see Plans & pricing. Anti-spoof liveness is included from the Growth plan up.
