didit-face-match（迪迪特脸部匹配）

Didit Face Match API

Overview

Compares two facial images to determine if they belong to the same person. Returns a similarity score (0-100).

Key constraints:

• Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF
• Maximum file size: 5MB per image
• If multiple faces in an image, the largest face is used for comparison
• Both user_image and ref_image are required

Capabilities: Similarity scoring, age estimation, gender detection, face bounding boxes, configurable decline threshold, optional image rotation for non-upright faces.

Authentication

All requests require x-api-key header. Get your key from Didit Business Console → API & Webhooks, or via programmatic registration (see below).

Getting Started (No Account Yet?)

If you don't have a Didit API key, create one in 2 API calls:

1. Register: POST https://apx.didit.me/auth/v2/programmatic/register/ with {"email": "you@gmail.com", "password": "MyStr0ng!Pass"}
2. Check email for a 6-character OTP code
3. Verify: POST https://apx.didit.me/auth/v2/programmatic/verify-email/ with {"email": "you@gmail.com", "code": "A3K9F2"} → response includes api_key

To add credits: GET /v3/billing/balance/ to check, POST /v3/billing/top-up/ with {"amount_in_dollars": 50} for a Stripe checkout link.

See the didit-verification-management skill for full platform management (workflows, sessions, users, billing).

Security best practice: Only store the status and score. Minimize biometric image data on your servers. Image URLs (in workflow mode) expire after 60 minutes.
