Facial recognition clock-in · South Africa
Your staff and contractors clock in with their face at the gate. The register stops lying, and you always know who is on site.

Nothing about your day changes except what you know. Here is what that looks like, from the first person through the gate to month-end.
Forty people arrive in ten minutes. Each one looks at the tablet on the gate post for a second and walks in. Nobody queues behind a clipboard.
Before: the guard writes names while the queue backs up into the road.
Open your phone and see every site's headcount, who's in, and who didn't come. Plan the day before the foreman calls you.
Before: three calls, two "I'll check", one guess.
"My team was there all week." You both open the same record: who came, which days, how long. The conversation takes two minutes.
Before: his timesheet against your memory, and you pay to keep the peace.
Everyone who clocked in and never clocked out, listed. If something happens, you know who was there and who to call.
Before: a dark yard and a list nobody updated after lunch.
Payroll gets hours per person that everyone can see and check. You pay for the work that was done, and your honest people stop carrying the others.
Before: a weekend with the register, a calculator and a headache.
A phone or tablet in the guardhouse or on the gate. No cables to the boom, no card printer.
Everyone is added once, with their OK on record. New crew can be added on the day.
We set up your site and gate with you and stay until the first crew has walked through.
Seasonal crews and day labour, paid for the days they came.
Subcontractors billed on hours you've seen, not hours you're told.
Domestic and maintenance staff on record at the staff gate.
Prove your guards were on post, with patrols, a panic button and radio on the same app.
Faces count as special personal information under POPIA. We set Facial Gate up with you so it is used lawfully, and we keep it to one job.
Fill in the blanks. We'll come back within a working day with how it would work on your site and what it would cost.
Facial Gate is facial recognition clock-in at the gate. Staff and contractors look at a phone or tablet mounted at the gate to clock in and out, so you see who is on site live and get hours per person for payroll.
Facial Gate keeps the record of who came and went. If you'd like it to work with your boom, turnstile or intercom, tell us what's on your gate and we'll say honestly what's possible.
No. It runs on a phone or tablet at the gate. We'll tell you which one suits your site.
Facial Gate is for the people who come every day: staff, crews and contractors. Visitors stay with your guard.
Yes. Each site gets its own gate, and you see them all in one place.
Yes, with each person's consent and a clear purpose. Faces are special personal information under POPIA, so we set up consent at enrolment and limit who can see records.
It is priced per site, depending on how many people and gates you have. Tell us about your gate and we'll send a setup plan and a quote within one working day.
