Face Authentication in Our Mobile SDKs: Passwordless Access, Anywhere

Face Authentication is now natively supported in the Mosaic ecosystem for Mobile SDKs, giving businesses the power to deliver secure, seamless user authentication directly inside their iOS and Android apps. Combined with support in Mosaic’s Orchestration services, it’s never been easier to design and deploy biometric login and recovery flows that users trust.

This marks a significant step forward in the usability and reach of biometric authentication, making it easier than ever to replace passwords with AI-driven, real-time liveness and facial recognition, delivering trusted, passwordless identity verification integrated directly into customer journeys.

Now on Mobile and Orchestration: Secure Authentication Wherever Users Are

The real breakthrough? Face Authentication is now available natively in the Mosaic Mobile SDKs for iOS and Android and fully configurable within Orchestration journeys.

This means customers can now embed Face Authentication into any step of their user journey — login, recovery, re-authentication — all without building custom flows from scratch. You can guide users through the entire experience, from selfie capture to result, inside your app or across orchestrated steps that adapt to risk, behavior and context.

Whether you’re building a mobile app or optimizing customer flows across multiple channels, Face Authentication is now ready to deploy securely, at scale and with minimal development lift.

Business Benefits that Go Beyond Biometrics

Face Authentication isn’t just a security upgrade, but a business enabler. Here’s how organizations are turning it into measurable value:

Stronger Protection, Lower Risk

With AI-driven facial recognition, real-time liveness detection and spoof prevention, Face Authentication adds a biometric layer that’s incredibly difficult to bypass. It strengthens defenses against account takeover and identity spoofing without relying on passwords or OTPs that attackers often exploit.

Seamless UX Drives Conversions and Retention

Typing credentials slows users down. Face Authentication removes friction in high-value moments — login, recovery, checkout — helping drive completion rates and reduce abandonment. With orchestration support, these experiences can be adapted in real time based on context and user behavior.

Fewer Support Tickets, Lower Costs

When users can recover access with a selfie rather than escalate a support case, your help desk breathes easier. Built-in retry logic and session timeouts reduce the load on internal teams, and orchestration makes it easy to introduce or update these steps across channels without re-coding.

Administrators also gain a single, auditable control panel to configure, monitor and optimize Face Authentication, improving conversion and cutting fraud and support costs through data-driven insights.

Common Use Cases Already Making an Impact

Face Authentication is already helping businesses solve critical identity challenges:

  • Passwordless Login: Replace passwords with secure facial authentication for verified users.
  • Account Recovery: Users can reset credentials securely with a selfie, reducing reliance on email or SMS.
  • Step-Up Authentication: For high-risk actions like payments or changes to personal data, Face Authentication provides real-time assurance.
  • Agentic Identities (Person-in-the-Loop): Require Face Authentication when an automated agent, such as a shopping bot or finance copilot, initiates a sensitive action like confirming a high-value transfer or approving a large transaction.
  • Mobile-First E-commerce: Return customers can re-authenticate at checkout quickly, improving conversion rates.

Built for Scale, Ready for Today

Powered by AI-driven biometric models optimized for accuracy, speed and adaptability, Face Authentication delivers sub-second performance at enterprise scale. Biometric data is stored in anonymized vectors and encrypted at rest and in transit. Customer-defined policies control everything from retry logic to retention.

The system also detects and prevents spoofing attempts using photos, videos or masks, ensuring only verified users gain access.

And because it’s embedded in both our SDKs and orchestration layer, you’re free to deploy, test and evolve these flows with total control and zero compromise.

Your Users Deserve Better Than Passwords

This milestone redefines what’s possible in customer authentication. With Face Authentication now embedded in our Mobile SDKs and available in Orchestration flows, businesses no longer have to choose between high security and great UX.

Deliver login and recovery experiences that are faster, safer, and smarter — directly in the apps your customers already use.

Face Authentication is available now. Start using it to modernize your access flows, reduce fraud and give users the trust and convenience they expect.
