How the AI guesses your age
Wondering "how old do I look?" This AI age guesser estimates your age from a
photo of your face. It uses MiVOLO v2, an age-estimation model trained on
hundreds of thousands of labelled faces, which looks at the whole face (and your
body, if it is visible) to give a single age number plus a breakdown by age range.
On clear, front-facing photos the guess is usually within a few years. Strong
filters, heavy make-up, dim lighting, sunglasses or a tilted head can push it
off by ten years or more, so try a couple of photos and compare.
Frequently asked questions
Is FaceAI free?
Yes. You can guess your age, check gender and see what ethnicity you look like for free, as many times as you want. There's no sign-up, no login and no app to install: it runs in your web browser.
How accurate is the AI age guess?
On clear, well-lit, front-facing photos it is usually within a few years of your real age. Filters, make-up, low light, sunglasses or unusual angles can make it much less accurate.
Can AI tell my race or ethnicity?
No. It can only say which world regions your face looks similar to, based on faces it was trained on. Appearance doesn't determine ancestry, ethnicity or nationality, so treat the percentages as a bit of fun.
Why does the AI think I look older or younger than I am?
Age models learn from typical faces. Skin texture, facial hair, glasses, hairstyle, lighting and image quality all shift the estimate. Try a sharp photo taken in daylight, facing the camera, with no filter.
Do I need to sign up or download an app?
No. There's no account, email or app needed. Open the page, upload a photo or take a selfie, and you get your results right away.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Open the site in your phone's browser and tap Camera to take a selfie, or Choose File to pick a photo from your gallery.
What if there is more than one person in the photo?
FaceAI needs a photo of just one person. If it finds more than one face, it asks you to use another photo or crop this one so only one person is in it.
