Core offering

DXYZ Inc. develops and operates "FreeiD," a facial recognition-based identity platform that allows users to register their face once and then use facial authentication in place of keys, IDs, passwords, and tickets across multiple touchpoints. The platform is delivered to real estate developers, property managers, building operators, corporations, daycare centers, theme parks, golf courses, and government-related service providers via dedicated modules such as FreeiD Mansions, FreeiD Pay, FreeiD Reserve, FreeiD Reception, and FreeiD Viewing Reservation.

Product overview

DXYZ operates a unified face-only identity platform called FreeiD, around which a modular product portfolio is organized. The core FreeiD platform enables one-time biometric face enrollment to access entry/exit, payment, and identity verification across diverse environments. Vertical solutions include FreeiD Mansions (residential condominiums, available in standard and MansionPlus tiers), FreeiD Reception (office visitor management), and FreeiD Pay (face authentication payment). Add-on services include FreeiD Reserve (shared facility reservation with on-site face access), and specialized management modules for move-in/out and viewing reservations. All products share the central FreeiD platform and its multi-engine AI face authentication backbone.
