Facial Recognition
At Vidigami, we help you manage consent and facial recognition in a way that feels clear, responsible, and easy to use, whether you’re tagging manually or using AI-assisted tools.

Part 2: What Photos Can be Used for Face Tagging?
Below, we will discuss which photos can be used for manual/assisted face tagging.
Images Suited for Manual Face Tagging
All photos can be manually tagged. Through manual face tagging, you are able to tag blurry faces, or photos with no clear faces.
Example of an image that can only be manually tagged:

Images Suited for AI Assisted Face Tagging
When it comes to AI assisted face tagging, images need to have clear faces. Only photos that are clearly identifiable faces can be identified, suggested, or autotagged by the AI.

Part 3: How to Manually Tag a Face
Through manual tagging, users are able to add context to a photo by tagging a user. If you’d like to find more about different kinds of manual tagging possible in Vidigami, click here.

TIP: Only users who have the “Tag Other People” permission are able to tag users who are outside of their family.
Part 4: AI Assisted Face Tagging Features
Vidigami features three assisted AI features:
-
“Is This Me?”
-
Group Tagging
-
Automatic Tagging
Feature 1: Is This Me?
Is This Me? suggests matches once it reaches a baseline level of confidence in a user’s identity. Parents (and students) can review these suggestions and choose to accept or reject them.
As more photos are accepted or manually tagged, suggestions become more frequent and more accurate. Accepted photos are automatically added to the user’s portfolio.

Feature 2: Group Tagging
Group tagging lets you tag multiple, closely related photos at once. You’ll find this feature in the People tab on every page, as well as at the organization level.
Feature 3: Automatic Facial Recognition
Auto-Tagging uses a high confidence threshold to minimize mis-tags, something many parents care deeply about. As more suggestions are verified and photos are manually tagged, auto-tagging will begin to occur.
If you'd like more information, please either submit a support ticket or contact your Client Success Manager.
