On-premises biometric identity verification SDKs
Face recognition, face liveness, deepfake detection, ID document recognition, ID liveness, and a combined eKYC suite — pick only what you need.
Server SDKs run on your own Linux hardware or private cloud via Docker, with air-gapped and VPC-friendly options and no per-call charges.
iOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native SDKs run matching and capture locally, including offline, so nothing is uploaded.
Layered passive and active liveness plus deepfake detection help stop presentation attacks and synthetic media.

One API for 1,500+ production-ready generative media models
Over 1,500 image, video, audio, 3D, and world models behind one API key, with new models added as they launch.
A custom inference stack that fal claims is up to 10x faster for diffusion models, designed for latency-sensitive production traffic.
Deploy your own or fine-tuned models, including private LoRAs and custom endpoints, with autoscaling and observability built in.
Multi-node clusters of H100, H200, B200, and B300 GPUs for training and fine-tuning compute-intensive workloads.

Extremely cost-effective serverless inference for open-weight models, but lacks fal.ai's deep specialization in real-time media pipelines.
Consolidates image, video, and audio models under single endpoints, but lacks fal.ai's advanced custom weight deployment.

Faster high-volume generative image inference, but offers a more specialized media feature set than fal.ai.
