Why face recognition

Four things a punch card can never prove, but a face can

Who clocked in, where they stood, what it costs you, and how the data is kept — settled at the camera, before it ever reaches payroll.

Identity

Buddy punching stops at the camera.

Every clock-in is matched against the employee's registered face, so a shared PIN or a borrowed phone can't create hours nobody worked.

  • AI facial recognition on every punch
  • Anti-spoofing blocks photos and video
  • Failed matches flagged for review
Location

The right face, at the right site.

Pair recognition with geofences so a verified face only counts when it shows up where the shift actually is.

  • GPS-stamped clock-ins
  • Geofences for every job site
  • Shared tablet kiosk for one entrance
Payroll

Verified hours, straight to pay.

Recognised punches build timesheets as the day goes, with regular and overtime hours already separated when the pay period closes.

  • Automatic overtime calculation
  • Bulk approvals with locked timesheets
  • Timesheets that update in real time
Privacy

Biometrics handled properly.

Biometric data is encrypted, consented to, and never shared. Employees can see what's held and can delete it any time.

  • Encrypted face data, not saved photos
  • GDPR-compliant, employees opt in first
  • Full audit trail of every match

Features

Everything you need to trust your attendance data

From the clock-in on the floor to the approved hours you send to payroll, every step is verified.

Anti-spoofing

Stop buddy punching before it reaches your payroll

Liveness detection tells a real person apart from a printed photo or a video held up to the camera, so no one clocks in for a colleague who isn't there. You decide how strict to be: block a failed match outright, let it through with a flag for a manager to review, or record it and move on.

What teams say after switching to Jibble

★★★★★

Our employees clock in and out using the facial recognition feature. It has improved the accuracy and consistency of hours worked. We don't waste any more time on punch cards or with employees disputing their work hours.

Alta P Director, Mechanical or Industrial Engineering
★★★★★

I have found that Jibble makes it much easier to manage my staff’s working hours and with the facial recognition feature, there is no question about who was there or not... easy to use for the staff. I switched from an app from the Apple app store, as it did not meet my needs as Jibble does.

Nicky C Owner, Veterinary
★★★★★

Super easy to implement with staff. Having an online time clock app is the answer a small office like ours was looking for. So far, the experience and implementation of the time clock software has been flawless. My staff started using it immediately without any problems or assistance.

Barbara B Board of Directors, Non-Profit
★★★★★

Whether you’re adding employees or clocking in/out, Jibble is extremely easy to use. Employees enjoy the "fun" of taking selfies when they’re clocking in/out and it’s simple to access via tablet, phone, or computer.

Albert C CEO, Medical Practice
★★★★★

Easy to use, easy to track the staff, choosing the authorized location in order to log in or out which means no one can cheat! No need to go to the office to check the staff if they came or not.

Saad A CEO, Advertising
★★★★★

I can easily monitor daily activities with Jibble’s time tracking. I can track remote workers’ hours as well as overtime, and also set the calendar according to my region to assign holidays and weekends accordingly.

Apparao R Project Manager, Mechanical Engineering
Frequently asked questions

Everything teams ask before rolling it out

What is a face recognition attendance system?
A face recognition attendance system records attendance using the employee's face instead of a card, fob or shared PIN. A phone or shared tablet checks the face against the one they enrolled with, then logs the time and place, so hours belong to a person rather than a device.
How does face recognition work?
An employee enrols once by scanning their face, and that encrypted reference is what future clock-ins are checked against. The camera compares the live face to it and confirms a real person is present before recording the entry with its time and location.
Is there a free face recognition attendance system?
Yes. Jibble is free forever for unlimited users, with no credit card needed to get started. Enrol your team, clock in with face verification and get accurate timesheets from day one.
Does face recognition attendance work without an internet connection?
Yes. Recognition happens on the device, so clock-ins work in basements, warehouses and remote sites. Entries queue locally and sync automatically as soon as the device is back online.
What hardware does a face recognition attendance system need?
None beyond what you have. Jibble runs face recognition on the devices your team already carries. Employees clock in from their own iOS or Android phones, or you mount one tablet in kiosk mode for a shared entrance. No biometric terminals to buy or install.
What if an employee refuses face recognition?
Verification is configurable per group. You can keep face recognition for shared kiosks and let other people clock in by PIN, NFC tag or GPS-verified app punch — all landing in the same timesheet.
