Import
Bring in full folders, not single images.
Point Visage at an album folder and let it index large batches of photos from personal libraries, shoots, or archived exports.

What Visage Does
One focused workflow from import to exported matches.
Reference
Use one or more selfies as the target face.
Add reference photos, build a cleaner identity signal, and improve confidence before scanning the full library.
Results
Review, tune, and export only the matches you want.
Surface likely hits fast, tighten or relax the threshold, and copy confirmed photos into a clean destination folder.
How It Works
Designed to be understandable in under a minute.
01
Select an album folder.
Visage imports the photo set and prepares it for scanning without moving your originals to a remote service.
02
Add reference face photos.
Provide one or more images of the person you want to find so the app can build a stronger face profile.
03
Run the scan locally.
Each photo is processed on your machine with face detection, alignment, and matching. No internet round-trip is required.
04
Inspect and export the shortlist.
Review matches in a focused results view, adjust strictness, and export the images that matter.
Why Choose Visage
Built for privacy, speed, and large real-world libraries.
Private By Default
Your photo library stays on your device.
Visage is offline-first. It does not depend on uploading albums to a web service just to search for a face.
Digestible Workflow
Import, reference, scan, review.
The app is structured as a short, step-based flow so users can get from raw folder to usable result set without learning a complex system.
Built For Volume
Handles large albums without turning the UI into a browser tab.
Desktop-native packaging, worker-based processing, and cached thumbnails keep the experience practical for substantial libraries.
Precise Matching
Face detection and embedding search tuned for retrieval.
Visage detects faces, generates embeddings, and compares them with cosine similarity so likely matches can be surfaced quickly.
Flexible Sources
Supports modern photo formats and common archive exports.
JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, TIFF, BMP, and AVIF support make it usable across phone libraries, camera folders, and mixed archives.
Operational Control
Adjust confidence and verify what you install.
Tune the match threshold for broader recall or stricter results, then validate installers with published checksums.
What You Get
Clear product expectations before download.
Best For
People searching personal or client image archives.
Use Visage to pull every appearance of a child, partner, family member, subject, or client from a large photo collection without manually opening thousands of files.
Platform
Desktop installers with local model execution.
Visage ships as a native desktop app for macOS and Windows, with local inference providers selected automatically where supported.
Output
A focused match set instead of a raw face database.
The goal is practical retrieval: find likely matches fast, inspect them visually, and export the photos you need.
Trust
Offline-first behavior with no account dependency.
There is no signup flow, no hosted dashboard, and no requirement to keep your library online to use the product.
Downloads
Choose the installer that matches the target machine.
Questions
Answers that remove the usual friction.
Does Visage upload my photos?
No. The product is built around local processing. Your images stay on the machine running the scan.
What makes the matches work?
Visage detects faces, aligns them, generates embeddings, and ranks similarity so you can review likely matches instead of searching manually.
Who is this best suited for?
Anyone with large personal or professional photo libraries who needs a direct way to find one person across many images.
