# Face Verification API - Programmatically Compare Two Faces in Different Images
#
# Documentation: - https://faceio.net/rest-api#faceverify
#
# The Face Verify API endpoint allow you to programmatically compare (check) whether two faces
# in different images belong to the same person. This API is ideal for programmatic face checks
# that don't require user interaction. Simply upload two images, each containing a single face,
# using your preferred programming language, and the algorithm determines if the faces belong to the same person.
