How It Works
Upload a Photo
Upload any photo containing a face — a selfie, screenshot, or photo from social media. Our AI detects and extracts the face automatically.
Search the Web
We compare the face against billions of indexed public photos from social media, news, and public databases using advanced face recognition AI.
Get Matches
View matching profiles with similarity scores, linked social accounts, and public information — all compiled into a shareable report.
Use Cases
Verify Online Contacts
Met someone online? Upload their photo to verify their identity and check if the face matches their claimed profile.
Find Social Profiles
Discover all public social media profiles associated with a face across platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and more.
Investigate Fraud
Check if a face photo is being used by multiple accounts or has been stolen from someone else for catfishing or fraud.
Protect Your Identity
Search your own face to see where your photos appear online and discover unauthorized use of your identity.
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the face search?
NexID uses state-of-the-art face recognition AI with over 99% accuracy on clear photos. Results include confidence scores so you can judge match quality yourself.
What kind of photos work best?
Clear, front-facing photos with good lighting work best. The face should be clearly visible and not heavily obscured by sunglasses or masks.
How much does face search cost?
NexID uses a pay-as-you-go credit system starting at $7.99 for 3 searches — no subscription required. Purchase credits to run a search; there is no free trial search.
How is face search different from reverse image search?
Reverse image search tools like Google Lens and TinEye mainly find copies of the same picture. Face search compares facial features, so it can find the same person in different photos — other angles, lighting, or years. Use reverse image search to trace one picture, and face search to find the person in it. See our guide on how to reverse image search.
Is there a free face search?
Free pixel tools (Google Lens, TinEye) search for copies of an exact picture. A true face finder that matches the same person across different photos requires facial-embedding infrastructure — NexID charges per search (from $7.99 for 3, no subscription) instead of a subscription.
What does "facesearch" mean — and is face search online safe?
"Facesearch" (one word) is the same as face search: uploading a face photo to find matching public profiles. Reputable online face search engines show their sources, use HTTPS, and offer opt-out. NexID displays a confidence score and source link for every match so you can verify rather than trust blindly.
Is this legal and ethical?
NexID only searches publicly available information. We are designed for identity verification and safety — not surveillance. All usage must comply with our Terms of Service.
Facial recognition search, done responsibly
A facial recognition search compares the geometry of a face — the spacing of eyes, nose bridge, jawline — against indexed public photos, so it can recognize the same person across different pictures. Unlike surveillance systems, NexID only searches publicly available web results, shows a confidence score for every match, and returns source links you can review yourself.
AI-powered matching
512-dimensional facial embeddings, robust to angle, lighting, and age difference between photos.
Public sources only
Social profiles, public pages, and indexed web results — no private accounts, no surveillance databases.
You stay in control
Every match shows where it came from, and opt-out removal is available for anyone in the index.
