Biometric Liveness Vendor Comparison: What to Actually Test

Every biometric liveness vendor will hand you a demo link. They all work on the demo. The question is what happens on a four-year-old Android in a dim bedroom — and whether the system still catches a deepfake on the same device.

Tests to run before signing

• Pass rate on low-light, low-end Android devices
• Block rate against open-source deepfake tools (DeepFaceLive, Roop)
• ISO 30107-3 PAD Level 2 certification — ask for the report
• Latency on a 3G connection, not your office WiFi
• Refer rate and how reviews are resolved

Why our biometric liveness check ships passive-first

Active prompts (blink, smile, turn) annoy real users and increasingly fail to stop modern deepfakes that animate the same prompts in real time. Our biometric liveness check runs passive PAD by default and only escalates to a challenge on suspicious sessions.

When to add video KYC on top

If your refer rate is above 8 percent, layer in our video KYC service to keep conversion without weakening controls.
