About

Mujadad Naeem (chief executive) and Daniyal A. Chughtai founded facia.ai in 2022, after a member of Naeem's family discovered their ride-hailing driver was not the person on the app. facia.ai's biometric checks confirm a person's identity in seconds and are built to stop deepfakes and spoofing.

facia.ai raised £930,000 in an investment led by Programmers Force.

Number 66 on the Startups 100 Index 2025.
