What Filmetrics Corporation does

Filmetrics Corporation is a Quezon City-based Philippine identity management and biometric technology company incorporated in 2009 as the information technology arm of the Freyfil Group of Companies. The company provides biometric enrollment, identity verification, attendance tracking, and human resources information system (HRIS) products, anchored by government relationships with the Social Security System (SSS), Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), and Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA). Across these programs Filmetrics has processed more than 20 million enrolled identities and maintains a workforce deployed at over 400 locations nationwide plus 14 foreign office workstations.

The company's product portfolio centers on computer-vision-driven identity technologies. LILO is a mobile-first facial biometrics attendance application for Android and iOS that combines face recognition, GPS geolocation tagging, offline mode, and HRIS integration; it is sold as a subscription at PHP 25 per employee per month (or a PHP 500 monthly flat rate for fewer than 20 employees), with a premium LILO Plus tier offering extended onboarding and hypercare support. The broader suite includes PREMAN (web-based HRIS and payroll), eProktor (AI-enabled online exam proctoring with focus and activity detection), SmartView (live video stream facial recognition claiming 99% IP camera compatibility with age, gender, and emotion estimation), IDENT Pro (biometric identity management for onboarding, proof of life, and access control), myCARD and iServ (multi-purpose identity and benefits verification for Local Government Units), and ACE Tag (asset management).

Filmetrics operates a hybrid revenue model combining low-priced SaaS subscriptions (LILO, LILO Plus, PREMAN) with project-based and managed services revenue tied to large-scale government biometric enrollment and identity card programs. The go-to-market blends a direct enterprise sales motion for government and large accounts (with scheduled online demo sessions and event-driven demand generation at Philippine trade shows such as DTI Tatak Pinoy Expo and SME Business Expo) with product-led, mobile-first self-serve adoption for the SME segment. The firm is privately held, has no disclosed external funding, and is wholly integrated within the Freyfil Group conglomerate structure.
