Keyless

The biometric authentication system that puts user privacy first.

Keyless provides privacy-preserving biometric authentication delivered via a cloud-based platform with one key difference: biometric data is not stored anywhere, neither on a user’s device nor on the cloud.

Founded by cryptography scholars, Keyless authenticates users throughout the customer journey – at login, making payments, changing personal details, and recovery accounts – in both app and web environments.

Instead of hashing biometric data – which can be reverse engineered – Keyless transforms a user’s biometric data into a cryptographic representation that cannot be read by anyone – neither Keyless nor the cloud service provider – except the user that created it. This provides a level of privacy never seen before in the biometric authentication market.

Keyless is multi-factor by design, authenticating the user’s face and their device for every authentication. Because Keyless only stores cryptographic representations in the cloud, it authenticates users in superfast speeds – under 300 milliseconds – with just one look at the camera.

Privacy-conscious industries favor Keyless, including traditional and challenger banks, crypto companies, and digital wallets. Relai is a notable example – the Swiss Bitcoin wallet uses Keyless to authenticate its customers at the login and account recovery step. Providing biometric authentication to one of the most privacy-conscious markets in the world is only possible with a solution that has privacy built into its core.

Keyless Biometric Authentication

Zero-Knowledge Biometrics™
Biometric templates are matched without being seen, stored, or shared – ensuring total data confidentiality at every stage.

Fast and Frictionless
Authentication completes in under 300ms with passive liveness – no user actions required.

Ultra-Low Error Rates
False Acceptance Rate (FAR): Less than 1 in 100,000 (≤ 0.001%).
False Rejection Rate (FRR): Typically around 0.03% depending on environment and configuration.

Privacy-First Compliance
Certified to ISO/IEC 30107-3, FIDO Biometrics, and NIST FRVT 1:1. GDPR-ready by design as no biometric data is stored or shared.

Flexible Deployment
Cloud, on-prem, or hybrid—Keyless adapts to customer infrastructure and compliance needs.
